The bond polarities of SiH₄ are polar. The molecular shape is tetrahedral. The molecule is nonpolar.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

As seen on the diagram, there are four Si-H bonds in a molecule of SiH₄. Electronegativity values:

  • Si: 1.9
  • H: 2.2

The two atoms differ in electronegativity. As a result, the Si-H bond is polar.

There are four valence electrons in one Si atom. Each of the four electron will go to a Si-H bond. The Si atom in SiH₄ will have no lone pairs. The four Si-H bonds count towards four electron domains. As a result, the SiH₄ atom is tetrahedral.

Dipoles from each Si-H bond are equal. They are poised in a tetrahedral shape. As a result, their dipole balance each other. Overall, SiH₄ molecule will have no net dipole.

calculate the difference in slope of the chemical potential against temperature on either side of the normal freezing point of w
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

(a) The normal freezing point of water (J·K−1·mol−1) is -22Jmole^-^1k^-^1

(b) The normal boiling point of water (J·K−1·mol−1) is -109Jmole^-^1K^-^1

(c) the chemical potential of water supercooled to −5.0°C exceed that of ice at that temperature is  109J/mole

Explanation:

Lets calculate

(a) - General equation -

      (\frac{d\mu(\beta )}{dt})p-(\frac{d\mu(\alpha) }{dt})_p = -5_m(\beta )+5_m(\alpha ) =  -\frac{\Delta H}{T}

 \alpha ,\beta → phases

ΔH → enthalpy of transition

T → temperature transition

 (\frac{d\mu(l)}{dT})_p -(\frac{d\mu(s)}{dT})_p == -\frac{\Delta_fH}{T_f}

            = \frac{-6.008kJ/mole}{273.15K} ( \Delta_fH is the enthalpy of fusion of water)

           = -22Jmole^-^1k^-^1

(b) (\frac{d\mu(g)}{dT})_p-(\frac{d\mu(l)}{dT})_p= -\frac{\Delta_v_a_p_o_u_rH}{T_v_a_p_o_u_r}

                                  = \frac{40.656kJ/mole}{373.15K} (\Delta_v_a_p_o_u_rH is the enthalpy of vaporization)

                               = -109Jmole^-^1K^-^1

(c) \Delta\mu =\Delta\mu(l)-\Delta\mu(s) =-S_m\DeltaT

[\mu(l-5°C)-\mu(l,0°C)] =  [\mu(s-5°C)-\mu(s,0°C)]=-S_mΔT

\mu(l,-5°C)-\mu(s,-5°C)=-Sm\DeltaT [\mu(l,0

\Delta\mu=(21.995Jmole^-^1K^-^1)\times (-5K)

     = 109J/mole

A gas starts at a volume of 23 L and a pressure of 1.23 atm. What is the new pressure if you
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

<h2>1.89 atm</h2>

Explanation:

The new volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

Since we are finding the new volume

V_2 =  \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2}  \\

From the question we have

V_2 =  \frac{1.23 \times 23}{15}  =  \frac{28.29}{15}  \\  = 1.886

We have the final answer as

<h3>1.89 atm</h3>

Hope this helps you

Que diferencia hay entre drogas estimuladoras depresoras y perturbadoras del sistema nervioso
12345 [234]

Answer:

Las drogas estimulantes son un grupo de medicamentos que tienen un efecto estimulante mental y físico en humanos y animales, estimulando y dando energía al paciente.  Ejemplos de psicoestimulantes son cafeína, efedrina, anfetaminas y metilfenidato.  Estos se usan en pequeñas dosis para, entre otras cosas, mejorar la atención del paciente y la capacidad de planificación, permitiendo un mayor y mejor rendimiento de la persona durante sus actividades diarias.

A su vez, un depresor es una sustancia que paraliza las funciones del sistema nervioso central, siendo las pastillas para dormir y los sedantes los depresores mas comunes. La acción de los sedantes se basa en su capacidad para activar los mediadores del sistema nervioso central, especialmente el ácido gamma-aminobutírico, causando en el paciente una sensación que puede ir desde la tranquilidad y relajación hasta un estado de somnolencia o incluso la propia inducción al sueño.

Por último, las drogas perturbadoras del sistema nervioso incluyen LSD, cannabis o la cocaína. Algunos efectos típicos son cambios en la visión y el oído, alucinaciones, confusión de sentidos, fuertes experiencias de belleza, disolución del yo y un sentido de unidad, experiencias religiosas y confrontaciones con el subconsciente. Este tipo de drogas son en su gran mayoría ilegales, y no forman parte de tratamientos médicos autorizados.
