As you go down a group the atomic radius increases and so does the number of electron shells added to an atom.

A strontium hydroxide solution is prepared by dissolving 10.60 gg of Sr(OH)2Sr(OH)2 in water to make 47.00 mLmL of solution.What
NeTakaya

Answer:

Approximately 1.854\; \rm mol\cdot L^{-1}.

Explanation:

Note that both figures in the question come with four significant figures. Therefore, the answer should also be rounded to four significant figures. Intermediate results should have more significant figures than that.

<h3>Formula mass of strontium hydroxide</h3>

Look up the relative atomic mass of \rm Sr, \rm O, and \rm H on a modern periodic table. Keep at least four significant figures in each of these atomic mass data.

  • \rm Sr: 87.62.
  • \rm O: 15.999.
  • \rm H: 1.008.

Calculate the formula mass of \rm Sr(OH)_2:

M\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) = 87.62 + 2\times (15.999 + 1.008) = 121.634\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}.

<h3>Number of moles of strontium hydroxide in the solution</h3>

M\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) =121.634\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1} means that each mole of \rm Sr(OH)_2 formula units have a mass of 121.634\; \rm g.

The question states that there are 10.60\; \rm g of \rm Sr(OH)_2 in this solution.

How many moles of \rm Sr(OH)_2 formula units would that be?

\begin{aligned}n\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) &= \frac{m\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right)}{M\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right)}\\ &= \frac{10.60\; \rm g}{121.634\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \approx 8.71467\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol\end{aligned}.

<h3>Molarity of this strontium hydroxide solution</h3>

There are 8.71467\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol of \rm Sr(OH)_2 formula units in this 47\; \rm mL solution. Convert the unit of volume to liter:

V = 47\; \rm mL = 0.047\; \rm L.

The molarity of a solution measures its molar concentration. For this solution:

\begin{aligned}c\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) &= \frac{n\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right)}{V}\\ &= \frac{8.71467\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol}{0.047\; \rm L} \approx 1.854\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}\end{aligned}.

(Rounded to four significant figures.)

g All of the molecules below have polar bonds but only one of the molecules is a polar molecule. Which one is a polar molecule?
lbvjy [14]

Answer: NF_3

Explanation:

Geometrical symmetry of the molecule and the polarity of the bonds determine the polarity of the molecule.

The molecule that has zero dipole moment that means it is a geometrically symmetric molecule and the molecule which has some net dipole moment means it is a geometrically asymmetric molecule.

As the molecule is symmetric, the dipole moment will be zero as dipole moments cancel each other and the molecule will be non-polar.

As the molecule is asymmetric, the dipole moment will not be zero and the molecule will be polar.

Example: NF_3

Thus, we can say that NF_3 is a polar molecule.

How does the state of matter affect the behavior of molecules?
motikmotik

Answer:

The behavior of molecules in different phases of matter represents a balance between the kinetic energies of the molecules and the attractive forces between them. All molecules are attracted to each other. The molecules are in the solid-state. At higher temperatures, the kinetic energy of the molecules is higher.
