Chemistry

maria [59]3 years ago
8 0

Answer : The incorrect statements are:

(A) When two nonmetals react, the compound formed is ionic.

(B) Two nonmetals can undergo an oxidation-reduction reaction.

Explanation :

Covalent compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms forming a compound.

The covalent compound are usually formed when two non-metals react.

The two nonmetals can not undergo an oxidation-reduction reaction.

Ionic compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed when electron gets transferred from one atom to another atom.

Ionic compound are usually formed when a metal reacts with a non-metal.

The metal-nonmetal reaction can always be assumed to be an oxidation-reduction reaction.

For example : 2Na(s)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2NaCl(s)

In this reaction, sodium shows oxidation because the oxidation state changes from (0) to (+1) and and chlorine shows reduction because the oxidation state changes from (0) to (-1).

Hence, the incorrect statements are, (A) and (B)

How many hydrogen atoms are in 8.80 mol of ammonium sulfide
vladimir1956 [14]
Assuming that the ammonium sulfide formula is (NH4)2S then you can see that there are 2 nitrogen, 8 hydrogen and 2 sulfur atoms for every ammonium sulfide. If the amount of ammonium sulfide is 8.9 moles, then the number of hydrogen atoms should be: 8/1 * 8.9 mol= 71.2 moles

the atomic number of four elements p,q,r,s are 6,8,10 and 12 respectively. the two elements which can bond ionically are:
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

The atomic numbers of four elements A, B, C, and D are 6,8,10, and 12 respectively. The two elements which can react to form ionic bonds (or ionic compounds) are B (8= 2,6) and D (12 =2,8,2). So D donates its two electrons to B to fulfill their octet.

What is the pH of 0.000134 M solution of HCI?
mafiozo [28]

Answer: The pH will be 3.87

Explanation:

pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.

pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

pH=-\log [H^+]

HCl\rightarrow H^++Cl^{-}

According to stoichiometry,

1 mole of HCl gives 1 mole of H^+

Thus 0.000134 moles of HCl gives =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.000134=0.0001342 moles of H^+

Putting in the values:

pH=-\log[0.000134]

pH=3.87

Thus the pH will be 3.87
