Solnce55 [7]3 years ago

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A polyatomic ion is defined as the ion formed by two or more number of atoms which actually covalently combine together.

This means that only non-metals combine covalently together as a covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons.

For example, S and O atoms are covalent and they tend to form polyatomic ions when combine together.

Whereas K and F, Li and I, Mg and Br are all metals and non-metals. So, they will always form an ionic bond as the metal will transfer its valence electrons to the non-metal.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options S and O pairs of elements is most likely to be part of a polyatomic ion.

Ascorbic acid, or vitamin C (C6H8O6, molar mass = 176 g/mol), is a naturally occurring organic compound with antioxidant propert
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

The quantity of ascorbic acid found in sweet lime of 49.6 mg does not meet the daily requirement.

Explanation:

To determine the mass of ascorbic acid knowing the number of moles we use the following formula:

number of moles = mass / molecular weight

mass = number of moles × molecular weight

mass of ascorbic acid = 2.82 × 10⁻⁴ × 176

mass of ascorbic acid = 496 × 10⁻⁴ g = 0.0496 g = 49.6 mg

daily requirement of ascorbic acid = 70 - 90 mg

The quantity of ascorbic acid found in sweet lime of 49.6 mg does not meet the daily requirement.

Consider the reaction: 2 H2O (g)-->2 H2 (g) + O2 (g). ΔH=483.6 Kj/mol. If 2 moles of H2O (g) are converted H2(g) and O2(g) ag

<span>2 H2O(g) → 2 H2(g) + O2(g) </span>

<span>You can see that there are 2 moles of gas in the reactants and 3 moles of gas in the products. </span>

<span>1 moles of ideal gas occupies the same volume as 1 mole of any other ideal gas under the same conditions of temp and pressure. </span>

<span>Since it is done under constant temp and pressure that means the volume change will be equal to the volume of 1 mole of gas </span>

<span>2 moles reacts to form 3 moles </span>

<span>The gas equation is </span>

<span>PV = nRT </span>
<span>P = pressure </span>
<span>V = volume (unknown) </span>
<span>n = moles (1) </span>
<span>R = gas constant = 8.314 J K^-1 mol^-1 </span>
<span>- the gas constant is different for different units of temp and pressure (see wikki link) in this case temp and pressure are constant, and we want to put the result in an equation that has Joules in it, so we select 8.314 JK^-1mol^-1) </span>
<span>T = temp in Kelvin (kelvin = deg C + 273.15 </span>
<span>So T = 403.15 K </span>

<span>Now, you can see that PV is on one side of the equation, and we are looking to put PdV in our dE equation. So we can say </span>

<span>dE = dH -dnRT (because PV = nRT) </span>

<span>Also, since the gas constant is in the unit of Joules, we need to convert dH to Joules </span>

<span>dH = 483.6 kJ/mol = 483600 Joules/mol </span>

<span>dE = 483600 J/mol - (1.0 mol x 8.314 J mol^-1K-1 x 403.15 K) </span>
<span>dE = 483600 J/mol - 3351.77 J </span>
<span>dE = 480248.23 J/mol </span>
<span>dE = 480.2 kJ/mol </span>

What is the molecular geometry around each carbon atom in a saturated hydrocarbon?
Lelu [443]
Answer:
            <span>Molecular geometry around each carbon atom in a saturated hydrocarbon is Tetrahedral.

Explanation:
                     </span> In saturated hydrocarbons (-CH₂-) the central atom (carbon) is bonded to either three or two hydrogen atoms and one or two carbon atoms. So, the central atom is having four electron pairs and all pairs are bonding pairs and lacks any lone pair of electron. According to Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) Theory the central atom with four bonding pair electrons and zero lone pair electrons will attain a tetrahedral geometry with bond angles of 109°.
