When naming a binary compound which element is named first metal or nonmetal

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ilya [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Metal is named first

Explanation:

Binary compounds:

The compounds which are made up of the atoms of only two elements are called binary compounds.

For example:

The following compounds are binary:

HCl

NaCl

HCl is binary because it is composed of only hydrogen and chlorine.

Sodium chloride is also binary compound composed of only two element hydrogen and chlorine.

When naming these compounds the name of metal or cation is written first and anion is written after the cation. The anions are non meals.

The anion name is end with suffix " ide".

such as sodium chloride.

Calculate the density of chloroform
Rina8888 [55]

Answer: The density of chloroform is 1.47 g/mL

Explanation : Given,

Volume = 40.5 mL

Mass of cylinder = 85.16 g

Mass of cylinder and liquid = 145.10 g

First we have to calculate the mass of liquid (chloroform).

Mass of liquid = Mass of cylinder and liquid - Mass of cylinder

Mass of liquid = 145.10 g - 85.6 g

Mass of liquid = 59.5 g

Now we have to calculate the density of liquid (chloroform).

Formula used:

Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

Now putting g all the given values in this formula, we get:

Density=\frac{59.5g}{40.5mL}

Density=1.47g/mL

Therefore, the density of chloroform is 1.47 g/mL

The product of the nitration reaction will have a nitro group at which position with respect to the methyl group? Group of answe
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Mostly Para

Explanation:

First, let's assume that the molecule is the toluene (A benzene with a methyl group as radical).

Now the nitration reaction is a reaction in which the nitric acid in presence of sulfuric acid, react with the benzene molecule, to introduce the nitro group into the molecule. The nitro group is a relative strong deactiviting group and is metha director, so, further reactions that occur will be in the metha position.

Now, in this case, the methyl group is a weak activating group in the molecule of benzene, and is always ortho and para director for the simple fact that this molecule (The methyl group) is a donor of electrons instead of atracting group of electrons. Therefore for these two reasons, when the nitration occurs,it will go to the ortho or para position.

Now which position will prefer to go? it's true it can go either ortho or para, however, let's use the steric hindrance principle. Although the methyl group it's not a very voluminous and big molecule, it still exerts a little steric hindrance, and the nitro group would rather go to a position where no molecule is present so it can attach easily. It's like you have two doors that lead to the same place, but in one door you have a kid in the middle and the other door is free to go, you'll rather pass by the door which is free instead of the door with the kid in the middle even though you can pass for that door too. Same thing happens here. Therefore the correct option will be mostly para.

Which out of two has stronger forces of attraction sugar or water very sort answer​
Marina CMI [18]

Sugar. It is solid and its atoms have less kinetic energy to overcome the bonding force. So, the bonding force is stronger than water, which is liquid and has more kinetic energy to overcome the bonding force of atoms. So, water has less strong force of attraction. Hence, sugar has stronger forces of attraction.
