Answer:
The structures are attached in file.
Hydrogen bonding and intermolecular forces is the reason for ranks allotted.
Explanation:
In determining Lewis structure, we calculate the overall number of valence electrons available for bonding. Making carbon (the least electronegative atom) the central atom in the structure, we allocate valence electrons until each atom has achieved stability.
In order of decreasing affinity to water molecules:
This is due to the fact that the 
will accept protons more readily than the bicarbonate ion, 
. Carbonic acid, 
will not accept any more protons, hence it is the least attractive to water molecule, even though soluble.
Answer:
a) Ka= 7.1 × 10⁻⁴; This is a weak acid because the acid is not completely dissociated in solution.
Explanation:
Step 1: Write the dissociation reaction for nitrous acid
HNO₂(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) and NO₂⁻(aq)
Step 2: Calculate the acid dissociation constant
Ka = [H⁺] × [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂]
Ka = 0.022 × 0.022 / 0.68
Ka = 7.1 × 10⁻⁴
Step 3: Determine the strength of the acid
Since Ka is very small, nitrous acid is a weak acid, not completely dissociated in solution.
It is kept constant
There is the answer if it helped
Answer:
D.) H-O
Explanation:
Polarity is determined based on the difference in electronegativity of the atoms. The greater the difference, the more polar the bond. The general trend is that the atoms in the top-right corner of the periodic table are the most electronegative.
A.) is incorrect because H-H has no electronegativity difference, making it nonpolar.
B.) and C.) are incorrect because their electronegativity differences are not the greatest.
D.) is correct because the electronegativity difference between the H and O is the greatest.
