The two compounds are KCl or NaCl

Answer:

KCl has greater electro negativity difference.

Explanation:

Electro negativity of chlorine on the Pauling's scale is 3.16 while that of potassium is 0.82. The electro negativity difference between them is 2.34

Electro negativity of sodium is 0.93. Hence electro negativity difference in NaCl is 2.23. Hence KCl has greater electro negativity difference.

Answer:

See the example below.

Explanation:

Let us make an example with a group of compounds to apply the general <em>trends of electronegativities</em> within families to find which compound has a greater difference in electronegativities.

Use this group.

  • a. HBr
  • b. HI
  • c. HF
  • d. HCl
  • e. H₂

Br, I, F, and Cl belong to the halogen family (group or column 17 of the periodic table).

Electronegativity is a relative measure of how strong an atom atracts the bonding electrons in a compound.

Since the strength of attracion of the valence electrons by the nucleus of an atom decreases as the size of the atom incease, in a family of elements (same group) the electronegativity decreases as you go down in the group.

The order of the halogens from top to bottom in the column in the periodic table is F, Cl, Br, and I.

Thus, the order of their electronegativiies is: F > Cl > Br > I. F is the most electronegative atom, and all those elements have higher electronegativy than H. (The electronegativiy of I is 2.66 and the electronegativity of H is 2.2). Thus, including H, the rank of the electronegativities is F > Cl > Br > I > H.

Thus, the greater difference in electronegativities is for HF (option a.).

Note, that the difference in electronegativites of the atoms of the molecule H₂ is zero, since both atoms have the same electronegativity.

Does anyone know how to do this?
Sloan [31]

Answer

find out the number of moles and use the molar ratio (numbers in front of formulas (in this case they are all 1) to determine how many moles of each product you are going to get theoretically

n=m/M is the equation to use to get moles here

30.8 gm/32.04 g/mol=0.9612 moles of the methanol and also of the formaldehyde so

0.9612 moles of the formaldehyde x molar mass (M) 30.73 g/mol= 29.54 gm which is the theoretical yield you already have the actual yield of 24.7 gm

then divide the actual by the theoretical to get the % yield which is 83.6%

1.What does the Law of Conservation of Energy tells us?
lorasvet [3.4K]
1. Energy can neither be created or destroyed.
2. Conduction. Putting a pot of water on a hot burner. Convection. Putting your wet shoes over an air vent to dry them quicker. Radiation. Sitting in front of the fire to warm your hands up.
3. renewable sources can be used again and again, but non renewable sources cannot.
4. I would recommend solar energy. I think solar energy should be considered because solar energy can be reused, and also because they can use it to power their houses and they wouldn't need fossil fuels to do so.
5. Turn off the lights and open the windows during the day and if something is left plugged into the wall and it is not being used, unplug it.

hope I could help!

<span>If you do not wash and dry the thermometer after every time you use it in this scenario, the temperature could be affected by the NaOH residue. This could make it so that your findings were inaccurate, so in order to be efficient, this precaution needs to be taken.</span>
