Chemistry

Marta_Voda [28]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A carbon atom is a group 14 element that has atomic number 6. Electronic distribution of carbon atom is 2, 4.

So, there are four valence electrons presents in a carbon atom. In order to attain stability carbon atom needs to be bonded to four electrons of another atom.

A carbon atom usually bonds with another atom by sharing of electrons.

Hence, we can conclude that a carbon atom is able to form covalent bonds with other atoms.

Answer:

B. They can for covalent bonds with other atoms.

Explanation:

Carbon = King of the elements on the periodic table

For its proclivity to form stable covalent bonds with multivalent atoms.

forsale [732]

The given question is incomplete . The complete question is :

In ionic bonding, during the transfer of electrons between two neutrally charged atoms, one electron moves from one atom to another. What are the new relative charges between the two atoms?

a. The giving atom and receiving atom are both negatively charged

b. The giving atom is now positively charged and the receiving atom is now negatively charged.

c. The giving and receiving atom are both positively charged

d. The giving atom is now negatively charged and the receiving atom is now positively charged.

Answer:  The giving atom is now positively charged and the receiving atom is now negatively charged.

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are formed by transference of electrons between metals and non metals. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Thus when  one electron moves from one atom to another, the metal acquires a positive charge and the non metal acquires negative charge.

For example:  NaCl is formed by transfer of one electron from sodium to chlorine , thus forming Na^+ and Cl^-

The dissolution of 0.200 l of sulfur dioxide at 19 °c and 745 mmhg in water yields 500.0 ml of aqueous sulfurous acid. The solut
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Molarity=1.22\ M

Explanation:

Given:  

Pressure = 745 mm Hg

Also, P (mm Hg) = P (atm) / 760

Pressure = 745 / 760 = 0.9803 atm

Temperature = 19 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T₁ = (19 + 273.15) K = 292.15 K  

Volume = 0.200 L

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

0.9803 atm × 0.200 L = n × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 292.15 K  

⇒n = 0.008174 moles

From the reaction shown below:-

H_2SO_3+2NaOH\rightarrow Na_2SO_3+2H_2O

1 mole of H_2SO_4 react with 2 moles of NaOH

0.008174 mole of H_2SO_4 react with 2*0.008174 moles of NaOH

Moles of NaOH = 0.016348 moles

Volume = 13.4 mL = 0.0134 L ( 1 mL = 0.001 L)

So,

Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

Molarity=\frac{0.016348}{0.0134}\ M

Molarity=1.22\ M

In which instance is a gas most likely to behave as an ideal gas?A.) At low temperatures, because the molecules are always far a
kiruha [24]

Answer:

C.) At room temperature and pressure, because intermolecular interactions are minimized and the particles are relatively far apart.

Explanation:

For gas to behave as an ideal gas there are 2 basic assumptions:

  • The intermolecular forces (IMF) are neglectable.
  • The volume of the gas is neglectable in comparison with the volume of the container.

<em>In which instance is a gas most likely to behave as an ideal gas?</em>

<em>A.) At low temperatures, because the molecules are always far apart.</em> FALSE. At low temperatures, molecules are closer and IMF are more appreciable.

<em>B.) When the molecules are highly polar, because IMF are more likely.</em> FALSE. When IMF are stronger the gas does not behave as an ideal gas.

<em>C.) At room temperature and pressure, because intermolecular interactions are minimized and the particles are relatively far apart.</em> TRUE.

<em>D.) At high pressures, because the distance between molecules is likely to be small in relation to the size of the molecules.</em> FALSE. At high pressures, the distance between molecules is small and IMF are strong.
