Explanation:
- When a bond is formed by transfer of electrons from one atom to another then it results in the formation of an ionic bond.
An ionic bond is generally formed by a metal and a non-metal.
For example, lithium is an alkali metal with atomic number 3 and its electronic distribution is 2, 1.
And, chlorine is a non-metal with atomic number 17 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 7.
So, in order to complete their octet lithium needs to lose an electron and chlorine needs to gain an electron.
Hence, both of then on chemically combining together results in the formation of an ionic compound that is, lithium chloride (LiCl).
An ionic compound is formed by LiCl because lithium has donated its valence electron to the chlorine atom.
- On the other hand, if a bond is formed by sharing of electrons between the two chemically combining atoms then it is known as a covalent bond.
For example, 
is a covalent compound as electrons are being shared by each oxygen atom.
Answer:
237.2 mL.
Explanation:
- We have the rule: at neutralization, the no. of millimoles of acid is equal to the no. of millimoles of the base.
(XMV) acid = (XMV) base.
where, X is the no. of (H) or (OH) reproducible in acid or base, respectively.
M is the molarity of the acid or base.
V is the volume of the acid or base.
<em>(XMV) HCl = (XMV) NaOH.</em>
<em></em>
For HCl; X = 1, M = 0.5 M, V = ??? mL.
For NaOH, X = 1, M = 1.54 M, V = 77.0 mL.
<em>∴ V of HCl = (XMV) NaOH / (XV) HCl = (</em>1)(1.54 M)(77.0 mL) / (1)(0.5 M) = <em>237.2 mL.</em>
In a combustion reaction, one of the reactants is always oxygen.
Answer:
Density is 6.16g/L
Explanation:
<em>... at exactly -15°C and exactly 1atm...</em>
<em />
Using general gas law:
PV = nRT
We can find density (Ratio of mass and volume) in an ideal gas as follows:
P/RT = n/V
<em>To convert moles to grams we need to multiply the moles with Molar Weight, MW:</em>
n*MW = m
n = m/MW
P/RT = m/V*MW
P*MW/RT = m/V
<em>Where P is pressure: 1atm;</em>
<em>MW of chlorine pentafluoride: 130.445g/mol</em>
<em>R is gas constant: 0.082atmL/molK</em>
<em>And T is absolute temperature: -15°C+273.15 = 258.15K</em>
<em />
Replacing:
P*MW/RT = m/V
1atm*130.445g/mol / 0.082atmL/molK*258.15K = m/V
6.16g/L = m/V
<h3>Density of the gas is 6.16g/L</h3>
