What type of compound is held together w/ electrostatic forces?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ugo [173]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Ionic compound.

Explanation:

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element. the electrostatic attraction is created between bonded atoms.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

The compound having ionic bonds generally have moderate to high boiling points and melting point because of greater electrostatic interaction. Their electrical conductivity are high and these minerals tend to dissolve in water.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion and  both atoms joint together through electrostatic interaction.

Nitrogen monoxide and water react to form ammonia and oxygen, like this: 4no (g) +6h2o (g) →4nh3 (g) +5o2 (g) the reaction is en
Archy [21]
The concept used here is the Le Chatelier's principle. When a disturbance is introduced to the system, it favors the direction of reaction that minimizes the disturbance to regain equilibrium.

In endothermic reactions, the forward reaction is favored when the temperature is low. Otherwise, the reverse reaction is favored. When you add the amounts of substances on the reactant side, more products would formed favoring the forward reaction. If you increase concentration on the product side, you form more reactants so it would favor the reverse reaction. Lastly, since 10 moles of gases are needed in the reactant side, it would be favored during high pressure reaction.

0.450 mol of aluminum hydroxide is allowed to react with 0.550 mol of sulfuric acid; the reaction which ensues is: 2Al(OH)3(s) +
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 1.1 moles of water

Explanation:

                     2Al(OH)₃  +   3H₂SO₄   ⇒   Al₂(SO₄)₃  +   6H₂O

                       0.45 mol      0.55 mol                                ?

Process

1.- Calculate the limiting reactant

Theoretical proportion

       Al(OH)₃ / H₂SO₄ = 2/3 = 0.667

Experimental proportion

       Al(OH)₃ / H₂SO₄ = 0.45 / 0.55 = 0.81

From the proportions, we conclude that the limiting reactant is H₂SO₄

2.- Calculate the moles of H₂O

                        3 moles of H₂SO₄ ----------------  6 moles of water

                        0.55 moles of H₂SO₄ -----------    x

                        x = (0.55 x 6) / 3

                        x = 3.3 / 3

                       x = 1.1 moles of water

The men's world record for swimming 1500 m in a long course pool is 14 min 34.56 s. At this rate how many seconds would it take
vlabodo [156]
Distance = 1500m, time = 14min 34.56s = 14*60 + 34.56 = 874.56s

Speed = Distance / time = 1500/874.56 = 1.715 m/s

In order to swim 0.7 miles, 1 mile = 1609.344 m

Time = Distance / speed = 1609.344 m / 1.715 m/s = 938.393 seconds

938/60 = 15 minutes, 38 seconds.

= 15 minutes 38.393 seconds.
