Positive ions or molecules that have lost one or more electrons where negative ions are actually oxygen atoms with extra negatively charged electrons.

According to Pascal's principle, how does pressure from a hand squeezing a ketchup bottle move throughout the ketchup?
Pepsi [2]

- According to Pascal’s principle, for a certain fluid in a totally enclosed system, a change in pressure at a given point in the fluid is transferred to all points in the fluid, as well as to the enclosing walls.

- This is illustrated by the fact that the pressure inside an enclosed system is the same according to the relation [ pressure = force/area ]. Therefore, the change in pressure resulting from squeezing a ketchup bottle will be transferred equally to all parts of that bottle as well as its internal content.

- That’s how hydraulic machines, such as garbage trucks and hydraulic lifts function..

Define and then describe the difference between a polar covalent bond, nonpolar covalent bond and ionic bond.
Romashka [77]
Polar covalent bond-  a bond where atoms are unevenly shared due to a larger difference in electronegativity of the bonded elements.

Non-polar covalent bond- These are bonds between elements with a low difference in electronegativity. Electrons are shared equally in these bonds between the elements.

Ionic bonds- have such  large difference in electronegativity that they take/give electrons to the element they are bonded to. They do not share electrons at all. Bonds between a non-metal and a metal.

Se hace reaccionar 4,00 g de aluminio y 42,00 g de bromo, según la reacción: Al(s)+Br2(l)⟶AlBr3(s) Calcular las moles de AlBr3(s
NeX [460]

Answer:

0.145 moles de AlBr3.

Explanation:

¡Hola!

En este caso, al considerar la reacción química dada:

Al(s)+Br2(l)⟶AlBr3(s)

Es claro que primero debemos balancearla como se muestra a continuación:

2Al(s)+3Br2(l)⟶2AlBr3(s)

Así, calculamos las moles del producto AlBr3 por medio de las masas de ambos reactivos, con el fin de decidir el resultado correcto:

n_{AlBr_3}^{por\ Al}=4.00gAl*\frac{1molAl}{27gAl} *\frac{2molAlBr_3}{2molAl}=0.145mol AlBr_3\\\\n_{AlBr_3}^{por\ Br_2}=42.00gr*\frac{1molr}{160g Br_2} *\frac{2molAlBr_3}{3molBr_2}=0.175mol AlBr_3

Así, inferimos que el valor correcto es 0.145 moles de AlBr3, dado que viene del reactivo límite que es el aluminio.

¡Saludos!

How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of 55.0 g sample of water by 65.0 oC.
sveticcg [70]

Answer: 14943.5 J

Explanation:

The quantity of heat energy (Q) required to raise the temperature of a substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Given that,

Q = ?

Mass of water = 55.0g

C = 4.18 J/g°C

Φ = 65.0°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

Q = 55.0g x 4.18 J/g°C x 65.0°C

Q = 14943.5 J

Thus, 14943.5 joules of heat is needed to raise the temperature of water.

Need some help, please. Explain why anions are always larger than the atoms from which they are derived, while cations are alway
ANTONII [103]

The question requires us to explain the differences in radii of neutral atoms, cations and anions.

To answer this question, we need to keep in mind that a neutral atom presents the same number of protons (positive particles) and electrons (negative particles). Another important information is that the protons are located in the nucleus of the atom, while the electrons are around the nucleus. Also, there is an electrostatic force between protons and electrons, which means that they the protons tend to attract the electrons to the nucleus.

While a neutral atom presents the same number of protons and electrons, a cation is an ion with positive charge, which means it has lost one or more electrons. In a cation, the balance between protons and electrons doesn't exist anymore: now, there is more positive than negative charge (more protons than electrons), and the overall attractive force that the protons have for the electrons is increased. As a result, the electrons stay closer to the nucleus and the radius of a cation is smaller than the neutral atom from which it was derived.

On the other side, anions present negative charge, which means they have received electrons. Similarly to cations, the balance between protons and electrons doesn't exist anymore, but in this case, there are more electrons than protons. In an anion, the overall attractive force that the protons have for the electrons is decreased. As a result, the electrons are "more free" to move and, as they are not so attracted to the nucleus, they tend to stay farther from the positive nucleus compared to the neutral atom - because of this, the radius of an anion is larger than the neutral atom from which it was derived.
