Can one atom in this type of reaction win the "tug of war"? What might happen if it did?

I'm assuming that when you mean "tug of war," you're referring to the pulling of electrons from both atoms in a chemical reaction.

Essentially, yes. If one atom is more strong (the real term is "more electronegative") than the other, it will be able to successfully pull the electron pair entirely from the other atom.

When this happens, one atom will become positive, and the other negative. Because of these opposite charges, the two atoms will attract towards each other, thus forming what is known as an "ionic bond."

Answer: YES

Explanation:

POLAR BONDS will form.

A polar bond is a covalent bond between two atoms where the electrons forming the bond are unequally distributed. This causes the molecule to have a slight electrical dipole moment where one end is slightly positive and the other is slightly negative.

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

d. 127 g/mol.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since we have the amount of molecules of this this compound, we are able to compute the moles out there by using the Avogadro's number:

$mol=7.02x10^{23}molec*\frac{1mol}{6.022x10^{23}molec}=1.17mol$

Which correspond to the moles of X2. Then, by using the mass we are able to compute the molar mass of X2:

$MM=\frac{296g}{1.17mol}\\\\MM=254g/mol$

It means that the atomic mass of X halves the molar mass of X2, which is then d. 127 g/mol.

Best regards!

Assume that 1.0 mol of C4H10 is completely burned in excess oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water. How many moles of CO2 would

In-s [12.5K]

You need to first write a chemical equation and balance it
C₄H₁₀ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O
2 C₄H₁₀ + 13 O₂ → 8 CO₂ + 10 H₂O
1.0 moles X moles
1.0 mol C₄H₁₀ ( $\frac{8 mol CO₂}{2 mol C₄H₁₀}$ ) = 4 moles of CO₂
