Is CaC1 a ionic , Polar covalant or non polar covalent ?

Chemistry

Polar Covalent.

This is because both Calcium (Ca) and Carbon (C) are non metals, thus eliminating the ionic option.

It is polar covalent rather than nonpolar covalent due to the fact that the electrons in a polar covalent bond are shared unequally while those in a nonpolar bond are shared equally.

This can be determined by looking at the amount of valence electrons; if the electrons cancel each other out, it is shared equally. If not, it is shared unequally.

Hope this helps!

What impact did the Spanish have on the region of South America?
vichka [17]

Answer:

The Spaniards practically went to war with the native Americans in South America, such as the Inca. They also brought diseases to South America. Diseases like smallpox.

Explanation:

Then after effectively killing off most of the native American population the Spanish continued to use South America for resources and they enslaved most of what was left of the non-Spanish and mixed populations. Francisco Pizarro took a page from Cortes' book, capturing Atahualpa, Emperor of the Inca, in 1532 and Cortes was the conquistador who defeated the Aztec Empire in what is now modern day Mexico or Central America.

3. If you start with 8x1025 molecules of Cl, and 25 grams of KI, how many grams of KCl would
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Percent yield = 89.1%

Explanation:

Based on the equation:

Cl₂ + 2KI → 2KCl + I₂

<em>1 mole of Cl₂ reacts with 2 moles of KI to produce to moles of KCl</em>

<em />

To solve this quesiton we must find the moles of each reactant in order to find the limiting reactant. With the limiting reactant we can find the moles of KCl and the mass:

<em>Moles Cl₂:</em>

8x10²⁵ molecules * (1mol / 6.022x10²³ molecules) = 133 moles

<em>Moles KI -Molar mass: 166.0028g/mol-</em>

25g * (1mol / 166.0028g) = 0.15 moles

Here, clarely, the KI is the limiting reactant

As 2 moles of KI produce 2 moles of KCl, the moles of KCl produced are 0.15 moles. The theoretical mass is:

0.15 moles * (74.5513g / mol) =

11.2g KCl

Percent yield is: Actual yield (10.0g) / Theoretical yield (11.2g) * 100

<h3>Percent yield = 89.1%</h3>

Some radioactive nuclides have very short half-lives, for example, I-31 has a half-life of approximately 8 days. Pu-234, by comp
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Here's what I find.

Explanation:

Iodine-131

Iodine-131 is both a beta emitter and a gamma emitter.

_{53}^{131}\text{I}\longrightarrow \, _{54}^{131}\text{Xe} +\, _{-1}^{0}\text{e} +\, _{0}^{0}\gamma

About 90 % of the energy is β-radiation and 10 % is γ-radiation. Both forms are highly energetic.

The main danger is from ingestion. The iodine concentrates in thyroid gland, where the β-radiation destroys cells up to 2 mm from the tissues that absorbed it.

Both the β- and γ-radiation cause cell mutations that can later become cancerous. Small doses, such as those absorbed from the nuclear disasters in the Ukraine and Japan, can cause cancers years after the original iodine has disappeared.

Plutonium-239

Plutonium-239 is an alpha emitter.

_{94}^{239}\text{U} \longrightarrow \, _{92}^{235}\text{Xe} + \, _{2}^{4}\text{He}

Alpha particles cannot penetrate the skin, so external exposure isn't much of a health risk.

However, they are extremely dangerous when they are inhaled and get inside cells. They travel first to the blood or lymph system and later to the bone marrow and liver, where they cause up to 1000 times more chromosomal damage than beta or gamma rays.

It takes about 20 years for plutonium to be eliminated from the liver around 50 years for from the skeleton, so it has a long time to cause damage.
