Which would least strongly attract electrons from other atoms in a compound?

sergey [27]

The concept we are looking for here is electronegativity. This concept is a measure of how strong an atom or element can attract a pair, that is bonding, of electrons to itself.

Fluorine is the element or atom of the greatest electronegativity. Electronegativity would increase as we move left to right of the periodic table.

How does binomial nomenclature related to plants and animals?

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

Binomial Nomenclature is a two-term naming system that uses two different terms to name the species, plants, animals and living organisms. ... The two terms consist of a generic epithet which is genus (category) of that species, and specific epithet which indicates the species itself.

How many grams of propanol (C3H7OH, 60.10 g/mol) would be needed to make 750 mL of a solution with an osmotic pressure of 25 atm

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

= 46.06 grams

Explanation:

P=cRT

25 = c (0.0821)(298)

concentration = c = 1.021 M

number of moles = (1.021)(0.75) = 0.7664 moles

mass = (0.7664)(60.10)=40.06 grams

The characteristic odor of pineapple is due to ethyl butyrate, a compound containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Combustion of

gavmur [86]

Answer: The empirical formula for the given compound is $C_3H_6O$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Conversion factor: 1 g = 1000 mg

Mass of $CO_2=6.32mg=0.00632g$

Mass of $H_2O=2.58g=0.00258g$

Mass of compound = 2.78 mg = 0.00278 g

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 0.00632 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 0.00632=0.00172g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 0.00258 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 0.00258=0.000286g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (0.00278) - (0.00172 + 0.000286) = 0.000774 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{0.00172g}{12g/mole}=1.43\times 10^{-4}moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.000286g}{1g/mole}=2.86\times 10^{-4}moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{0.000774g}{16g/mole}=4.83\times 10^{-5}moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is $4.83\times 10^{-5}mol$

For Carbon = $\frac{1.43\times 10^{-4}}{4.83\times 10^{-5}}=2.96\approx 3$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{2.86\times 10^{-4}}{4.83\times 10^{-5}}=5.92\approx 6$

For Oxygen = $\frac{4.83\times 10^{-5}}{4.83\times 10^{-5}}=1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 3 : 6 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_3H_{6}O_1=C_3H_6O$

6. If 4 mole of the rocket fuel ammonium perchlorate, NH4C/04 (s) is

Bond [772]

Answer:

144g of H₂O

Explanation:

3NH₄ClO₄(s) + 3Al → Al₂O₃(s) + AlCl₃(s) + 3NO(g) + 6H₂O(g)

From the equation:

3 moles of NH₄ClO₄ produced 6 moles of H₂O

4 moles of NH₄ClO₄ produced ? moles of H₂O

(4 ₓ 6)/3 = $\frac{24}{3}$ = 8 moles of H₂O

1 mole of H₂O = (1 × 2) + 16 = 18g (The Relative Molecular mass of H₂O)

8 moles of H₂O = ?

Therefore 8 × 18 = 144g

=144g of H₂O
