Answer:

13.5 g

Explanation:

This question is solved easily if we remember that the number of moles is obtained by dividing the mass into the atomic weight or molar mass depending if we are referring to elements or molecules.

Therefore, the mass of aluminum in the reaction will the 0.050 mol Al times the atomic weight of aluminum.

number of moles = n = mass of Al / Atomic Weight Al

⇒ mass Al = n x Atomic Weight Al = 0.050 mol x 27 g mol⁻¹

                                                         = 13.5 g

We have three significant figures in 0.050 and therefore we should have three significant figures in our answer.

If a mixture looks smooth and the same throughout it is probably what
gulaghasi [49]
Answer:
             <span>If a mixture looks smooth and the same throughout it is probably <u>Homogeneous</u>.

Explanation:
                   Mixture is the combination of different compounds which are unreactive to each other.

Mixture are classified as ...

Solutions; in which the mixed compounds are thoroughly mixed and cannot be distinguished from each other and are said to be homogeneous. In solutions the size of solute is very small (i.e. Less than 1 nm).

Colloids; in which the solute is homogeneous visually but heterogeneous microscopically. The size of particles in this case is between 1 nm to 1 </span>μm.

Suspensions; in which the mixture is heterogeneous, the particle size is greater than 1 μm and settles down (precipitation) under the influence of gravity.

Is toothpaste suspension,colloid,solution?​
natima [27]

Answer:

Collid

Explanation:

Toothpaste is a colloid, because it's part solid and part liquid. ... A colloid is a heterogeneous mixture of two substances of different phases. Shaving cream and other foams are gas dispersed in liquid. Jello, toothpaste, and other gels are liquid dispersed in solid.

Draw the Lewis structures of the molecules below and use them to answer the following questions:
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

If NO₂ molecule written is for Nitrogen dioxide, then, four of the five molecules presented above have no dipole moment and only one of the five molecules, Ozone (0₃), has a dipole moment.

But if the NO₂ molecule is for nitrite ion, NO₂⁻, then three out of the five molecules presented have no dipole moment and only the Nitrite ion, NO₂⁻, and Ozone, 0₃, have dipole moments.

Explanation:

- The Lewis Structure for the molecules are drawn in the image attached to this answer.

The bond dipole moment uses the idea of electric dipole moment to measure the polarity of a chemical bond within a molecule. It occurs whenever there is a separation of positive and negative charges. Polarity occurs due to differences in electronegativity.

1) Browne or Trihydridoboron, BH₃ - No dipole moment in the molecule.

Each B-H bond in BH₃ is polar/forms a dipole because the B and H atoms have different electronegativities. But, the shape of the molecule is trigonal planar which is symmetrical, so the dipoles/bond polarities cancel. The resulting BH₃ molecule is non-polar.

2)Nitrogen dioxide, NO₂ has no dipole moment.

Nitrite ion, NO₂⁻ -> Has a dipole moment.

There are two NO₂ molecules, the Nitrogen dioxide molecule is linear and has no dipole moment, but the NO₂⁻ ion is a polar molecule. The geometry of the molecule is bent because of a non-bonding pair of electrons. The bent geometry causes the polarity and subsequent dipole moment.

3) Sulfur hexafluoride, SF₆ - no dipole moment.

Sulfur hexafluoride, abbreviated as SF₆, is a nonpolar molecule. SF₆ has an octahedral molecular geometry, which means that the sulfur molecule has six fluorine atoms surrounding it. While each individual bond is polar, there is no net effect as symmetrical nature of this octahedral molecular structure means the dipole moments all cancel out, meaning that the molecule is nonpolar.

4) Ozone, O₃ - has a dipole moment.

O₃ is polar because there are 18 valence electrons, so the lewis structure would position the central O connected to one single bond and one double bond to connect the other O's. The lone pair on the central O would also mean the molecule was bent, thus making it polar. Therefore, Ozone is a polar molecule with a dipole moment of 0.53 D. The molecule can be represented as a resonance hybrid with two contributing structures, each with a single bond on one side and double bond on the other.

5) Phosphorus pentachloride, PCl₅

PCl₅ has a symmetrical geometry, the vector sum of the dipole moments of the different P-Cl bonds cancel each other. Therefore, the overall dipole moment of PCl₅ becomes 0.

Hope this helps!
