Answer: Have high melting point.

Explanation:

Covalent compounds are known to have low melting point because they have weak forces of attraction between the binding molecules, so low amount of energy is needed to break the binding force.

The untrue statement is that they high melting points.

The covalent compounds are the compounds exhibiting strong intra-molecular bonds. This is due to the tightness of the atoms within the covalent molecules. The force of attraction between the individual molecules in a covalent compound seems to be weak. The covalent compounds exhibit weak intermolecular forces that hold the atoms together due to this they have a low melting point.

What mass of CO is needed to react completely with55.0 g of Fe2O3(s)+CO(g) yield Fe(s)+CO2(g)?

Katarina [22]

Answer:

28.9 g

Explanation:

We know that we will need a balanced equation with masses, moles, and molar masses of the compounds involved.

<em>Gather all the information in one place</em> with molar masses above the formulas and masses below them.

$M_{r}$ : 159.69 28.01

Fe₂O₃ + 3CO ⟶ 2Fe + 3CO₂

Mass/g: 55.0

1. Use the molar mass of Fe₂O₃ to calculate the moles of Fe₂O₃.

$\text{Moles of Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$} =\text{55.0 g Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$} \times \frac{\text{1 mol Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$}}{\text{159.69 g Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$}}= \text{0.3444 mol Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$}$

2. Use the molar ratio of CO:Fe₂O₃ to calculate the moles of CO.

$\text{Moles of CO} = \text{0.3444 mol Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$} \times \frac{\text{3 mol CO}}{\text{1 mol Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$}}= \text{1.033 mol CO}$

3.Use the molar mass of CO to calculate the mass of CO.

$\text{Mass of CO} = \text{1.033 mol CO} \times \frac{\text{28.01 g CO} }{\text{1 mol CO}}= \textbf{28.9 g CO}$

How/why is maintaining healthy soil a social justice issue for our area and community

podryga [215]

Answer:

Social justice aims to give individuals and groups fair treatment and an impartial share of social, environmental and economic benefits. The concept promotes the fair distribution of advantages and disadvantages within a society, regardless of background and status.

Environmental justice deals explicitly with the distribution of environmental benefits and the burdens people experience, at home, at work, or where they learn, play and spend leisure time. Environmental benefits include attractive and extensive greenspace, clean air and water, and investment in pollution abatement and landscape improvements. Environmental burdens include risks and hazards from industrial, transport-generated and municipal pollution.

C.Convert the following using the molar mass of each:

Alik [6]

Answer:

1. 1.145 mole

2. 19.368g

3. 66.67 moles

4. 0.0056g

Explanation:

The following calculations gives the answers to the various questions asked above:

1. Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol

Mass of NaCl from the question = 67g

Number of mole NaCl =.?

Number of mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Number of mole NaCl = 67/58.5

Number of mole of NaCl = 1.145 mol

2. Number of mole of H2O = 1.076 mole

Molar Mass of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 2 + 16 = 18g/mol

Mass of H2O =?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of H2O = 1.076 x 18

Mass of H2O = 19.368g

3. Molar mass of C6H12O6 = (12x6) + (12x1) + (16x6) = 72 + 12 + 96 = 180g/mol

Mass of C6H12O6 = 1.2x104g

Mole of C6H12O6 =.?

Number of mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Mole of C6H12O6 = 1.2x104/180

Mole of C6H12O6 = 66.67 moles

4. Molar mass of Br2 = 2 x 80 = 160g/mol

Mole of Br2 = 3.5x10^-5 moles

Mass of Br2 =?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of Br2 = 3.5x10^-5 x 160

Mass of Br2 = 5.6x10^-3 = 0.0056g

Which would most likely be joined by an ionic bond?

KATRIN_1 [288]

An ionic bond is composed of a cation and anion, which are charged ions. You cannot have atoms with ionic bonds, because there is no opposite attraction between charges due to atoms having a net nuclear charge of zero. Therefore, a cation and anion would most likely be joined by an ionic bond.
