Draw one representation that shows the intermolecular interactions between NH_3 and water and another that shows the intermolecu

lar interactions between SbH_3 and water. Use your representations to help explain why NH_3 has a higher solubility in water than SbH_3.

Answer:

NH3 has greater water solubility due to intermoleculate interactions

Explanation:

Hi:

If we represent the structures of NH3 and SbH3 we can see that they are similar to the naked eye, this is because N and Sb belong to the same group of the periodic table (group 15).

However, the electronegativity of N is greater than that of Sb. The NH3 molecule is polar and can form an intermolecular interaction called hydrogen bridge with water.

Sb is less electronegative than N. The SBH3 molecule forms an intermolecular interaction with water called dipole-induced dipole.

The zone with positive charge density of the water molecule (hydrogens) is oriented towards the zone with positive charge density of SBH3 (the pair of electrons not shared)

Stronger intermolecular junctions allow greater solubility of NH3 molecules.

A covalent bond describes two atoms (most likely nonmetals) that share their valence electrons to satisfy the octet rule. Carbon and oxygen are both nonmetals, and they would share electrons with each other through a bond that is not polar enough to be considered ionic. The answer should be B

A bomb calorimeter has a heat capacity of 783 J/oC and contains 254 g of water whose specific heat capacity is 4.184 J/goC. How
IrinaK [193]

Answer : The amount of heat evolved by a reaction is, 4.81 kJ

Explanation :

Heat released by the reaction = Heat absorbed by the calorimeter + Heat absorbed by the water

q=[q_1+q_2]

q=[c_1\times \Delta T+m_2\times c_2\times \Delta T]

where,

q = heat released by the reaction

q_1 = heat absorbed by the calorimeter

q_2 = heat absorbed by the water

c_1 = specific heat of calorimeter = 783J/^oC

c_2 = specific heat of water = 4.184J/g^oC

m_2 = mass of water = 254 g

\Delta T = change in temperature = T_2-T_1=(23.73-26.01)=-2.28^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

q=[(783J/^oC\times -2.28^oC)+(254g\times 4.184J/g^oC\times -2.28^oC)]

q=-4208.28J=-4.81kJ

Therefore, the amount of heat evolved by a reaction is, 4.81 kJ

When an object is lifted 10 feet off the ground, it gains a certain amount of potential energy. If the same object is lifted 30
Elden [556K]

Answer: 3 times as much the potential energy

Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy possessed by an object by virtue of its position.

P.E=m\times g\times h

m= mass of object

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height of an object  

When same object with same is lifted from 10 feet to 30 feet. The height has increased 3 times , thus the potential energy will also get 3 times as much.
