Answer:

a. 63.2%

b. 11.7%

c. 73.3%

d. 0.995%

e. 55.5%

Explanation:

An ionic compound is a compound that is formed by ions, so one of the elements must donate electrons (which is the cation, the positive ion), and the other will receive these electrons (which is the anion, the negative ion).

The power of an element has to attract the electrons is called electronegativity, and so, as higher is the difference of electronegative of the elements, it is more probable that one of them will "still" the electrons and will form an ionic compound. The percent of this ionic character can be found by the Pauling's equation:

%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(x_A - x_B)^2}) *100%

Where x_A - x_B is the electronegativity difference of the elements. Thus, consulting an electronegativity table:

a. x_{Ti} = 1.5

x_{O} = 3.5

%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(3.5 - 1.5)^2})*100%

%IC = 63.2%

b. x_{Zn} = 1.6

x_{Te} = 2.1

%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(2.1 - 1.6)^2})*100%

%IC = 11.7%

c. x_{Cs} = 0.7

x_{Cl} = 3.0

%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(3.0 - 0.7)^2})*100%

%IC = 73.3%

d. x_{In} = 1.7

x_{Sb} = 1.9

%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(1.9 - 1.7)^2})*100%

%IC = 0.995 %

e. x_{Mg} = 1.2

x_{Cl} = 3.0

%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(3.0 - 1.2)^2})*100%

%IC = 55.5%

HI(aq)+NaOH(aq)→ <br> what the final balanced chemical equation with the phases included
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

HI(aq)+NaOH(aq)\rightarrow NaI(aq)+H_2O(l)

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, for this neutralization reaction, it is possible to realize that one the neutralization products is water (pH=7) and the other one is the salt coming up from the cation of the NaOH and the anion of the HI:

HI(aq)+NaOH(aq)\rightarrow NaI+H_2O

Moreover, since the solubility of NaI is large in water, we infer it remains aqueous whereas the water is maintained as liquid:

HI(aq)+NaOH(aq)\rightarrow NaI(aq)+H_2O(l)

Which is also balanced as the number of atoms of all the elements is the same at both sides.

Best regards!

Which machine is the least simple? a bike a screw an inclined plane a lever
Ivenika [448]

Answer: A bike

A bike is composed of various simple machines. It has a wheel and axle as one component, and it also has screws to hold the various parts together, along with levers and pulleys that are connected to the pedals. So all of these simple machine concepts work together to help transport the rider from point A to point B.

The other answer choices of screw, inclined plane, and lever, are fairly simple machines that don't have many things going on at once compared to a bike.

What is Δn for the following equation in relating Kc to Kp?2 SO2(g) + O2(g) ↔ 2 SO3(g)23-2-11
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

-1

Explanation:

The relation between Kp and Kc is given below:

K_p= K_c\times (RT)^{\Delta n}

Where,  

Kp is the pressure equilibrium constant

Kc is the molar equilibrium constant

R is gas constant

T is the temperature in Kelvins

Δn = (No. of moles of gaseous products)-(No. of moles of gaseous reactants)

For the first equilibrium reaction:

2SO_2_{(g)}+O_2_{(g)}\rightleftharpoons2SO_3_{(g)}

<u>Δn = (2)-(2+1) = -1  </u>

Thus, Kp is:

K_p=  K_c\times (RT)^{-1}
