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!

Answer:

Disagree with the suggestion based on the hygroscopic nature of anhydrous magnesium sulfate

Explanation:

Magnesium sulfate in the anhydrous form is a drying agent. A drying agent salts of inorganic compounds that has the capability of absorbing water to become hydrated, when placed in the presence of a wet surface or moist air

Anhydrous magnesium sulfate is therefore hygroscopic such that it absorbs water from the atmosphere and becomes hydrated and increases in size as its volume is increased according to the following chemical equation

MgSO₄(s) + 7H₂O(l) → MgSO₄·7H₂O(s)

The molar mass of anhydrous magnesium sulfate = 120.366 g/mol

The molar mass of the heptahydrate = 246.47 g/mol

Therefore, the mass of the magnesium sulfate doubles when it forms the heptahydrate, and the magnesium sulfate grows bigger.

Answer: 10.2 grams

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is :

$CaH_2(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow Ca(OH)_2(aq)+2H_2(g)$

According to the ideal gas equation:

$PV=nRT$

P = Pressure of the gas = 740 torr = 0.97 atm (760torr=1atm)

V= Volume of the gas = 12.0 L

T= Temperature of the gas = 19°C = 292 K $0^0C=273K$

R= Gas constant = 0.0821 atmL/K mol

n= moles of gas

$n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.97\times 12.0}{0.0821\times 292}$

$n=0.48$

According to stoichiometry:

2 moles of hydrogen are generated by = 1 mole of $CaH_2$

Thus 0.48 moles of hydrogen are generated by = $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.48=0.24$ moles of $CaH_2$

Mass of $CaH_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.24mol\times 42g/mol=10.2g$

Thus 10.2 grams of $CaH_2$ are needed to generate 12.0 L of hydrogen gas if the pressure of hydrogen is 740. torr at 19°C
