Answer:

The correct answer is "D. The difference in their electronegativities is greater than 1.7"

Explanation:

An ionic bond is produced between metallic and non-metallic atoms, where electrons are completely transferred from one atom to another. During this process, one atom loses electrons and another one gains them, forming ions. Usually, the metal gives up its electrons forming a cation to the nonmetal element, which forms an anion.

So, this type of bond consists of the attraction of atoms with electric charges of different signs, that is, the bond is established when atoms of low electronegative elements (metals) are bonded with atoms of highly electronegative elements (nonmetals).

So you can say that atoms of electronegativity difference equal to or greater than 1.7 participate in this type of bond (with its exceptions).

<u><em>The correct answer is "D. The difference in their electronegativities is greater than 1.7"</em></u>

What is the mass of 6.78x1050 molecules of NaCl
ryzh [129]

Answer:

Explanation:

As

Molar mass of NaCl= 58.44 gm

So we got it that,

58.44 mass of NaCl contain = 6.023*10^23  molecules of Na Cl

x mass will contain = 6.78*10^50

by cross multiplication , we get

x=  58.44*(6.78*10^50)/  6.023*10^23  

x= 65.785 * 10^27  molecules

Atmospheric pressure yesterday was given as 0.875 atm. Express this pressure in units of torr and also in kilopascals (kPa), res
Aneli [31]
This problem is about conversion and dimensional analysis. Important information to know:
 1 atm = 760 torr = 101.325 kPa

For atm to torr conversion:

0.875 atm * (760 torr / 1 atm) = 665 torr

For atm to kPa conversion:

0.875 atm * (101.325 kPa / atm) = 88.7 kPa

Thus the answer is b) 665 torr and 88.7 kPa

A generic gas, x, is placed in a sealed glass jar and decomposes to form gaseous y and solid z. 2x(g)â½ââây(g)+z(s) how are thes
Elan Coil [88]
The chemical equation given is:

<span>2x(g) ⇄ y(g)+z(s)</span>

Answer: the higher the amount of x(g) the more the forward reacton will occur and the higher the amounts of  products y(g) and z(s) will be obtained at equilibrium.

Justification:

As Le Chatellier's priciple states, any change in a system in equilibrium will be compensated to restablish the equilibrium.

The higher the amount, and so the concentration, of X(g), the more the forward reaction will proceed to deal witht he high concentration of X(g), leading to an increase on the concentration of the products y(g) and z (s).

How do I find the molar mass of Copper (II) Nitrate?
QveST [7]

Answer:

The molar mass of copper (II) nitrate is 187.5 g/mol.

Explanation:

The molar mass is the mass of all the atoms in a molecule in grams per mole. To calculate the molar mass of a molecule, we first obtain the atomic weights from the individual elements in a periodic table. We then count the number of atoms and multiply it by the individual atomic masses.
