Oxygen's electronegativity value is between those of sulfur and fluorine. Which statement correctly describes the relationship b

etween the three values?
A) The value for oxygen is less than that of sulfur because oxygen is larger, but greater than that of fluorine because oxygen has a greater effective nuclear charge.
B) The value for oxygen is less than that of sulfur because oxygen has less protons but greater than that of fluorine because oxygen has less valence electrons.

C) The value for oxygen is greater than that of sulfur because oxygen has less electrons, but less than that of fluorine because oxygen is smaller.
D) The value for oxygen is greater than that of sulfur because oxygen is smaller, but less than that of fluorine because oxygen has a smaller effective nuclear charge.

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

The first row fits in period 2

The second row fits in period 3

Explanation:

Elements arranged vertically in the periodic table in groups that share similar chemical properties.

Elements are also organized horizontally in rows or periods

The length of each period is determined by the number of electrons that can occupy the sublevels being filled in that period.

The coefficients in a chemical equation represent the
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

  • <em>The coefficients in a chemical equation represent the </em><u>relative number of moles of each reactant and product that interven in the chemical reaction.</u>

Explanation:

The <em>coefficients</em> are the numbers that you put in front of each chemical formula that represents the reactants and products in the <em>chemical equation</em>. They indicate the mole ratio in which the elements or compounds react to form the products, as per the chemical equation.

See an example:

  • Word equation: hydrogen and oxygen produce water

  • Chemical (skeleton) equation: H₂ (g) + O₂(g) → H₂O (g)

      This equation is not balanced: the  number of atoms of oxygenin the reactant side is 2 while the number of atoms of oxygen isn the product side is 1. In order to balance the equation you need to add some coefficients.

When no coefficients are shown it is understood that the coefficient is 1.

  • Balanced chemical equation: 2H₂ (g) + O₂(g) → 2H₂O (g)

The coefficients 2 in front of H₂ and 1 (understood) in front of O₂, in the reactant side, and 2 in front of H₂O, in the product side, balance the equation.

Those coefficients mean that the 2 molecules (or mole of molecules) of H₂ react with 1 molecule (or mole of molecules) of O₂ to form 2 molecules (or moles) of H₂O (product side).

That is the mole ratio: 2 H₂ : 1 O₂ : 2 H₂O.

Notice that, in spite of the aboslute numbers may change, the mole ratio is unique for any chemical reaction.  For example 4 : 2 : 4 is the same ratio that 2 : 1 : 2, or 8 : 4 : 8, but the most common practice is to use the most simple form of the ratio, i.e. 2: 1: 2.

True or False When one side of a molecule is electronegative (δ-) and the other side of the
lesya [120]

Answer:

True; When one side of a molecule is electronegative (δ-) and the other side of the

molecule is electropositive (δ+), it is said to have a dipole moment.

Explanation:

A dipole moment exists in a molecule as a result of differences in the electronegativity values between the atoms of the elements involved in the chemical bonding.

When a strogly electronegative atom such as oxygen or chlorine is chemically bonded to a less electronegative or an electropositive atom such as hydrogen, there is an uneven sharing of the electrons involved in the bonding. The more electronegative atoms tends to draw the shared electrons mostly to themselves. This induces a partially negative charge (δ-) on them while leaving the electropositive atoms with a partially positive charge (δ+).

Water is an example of a molecule having a dipole moment. The oxygen atoms are more electronegative than hydrogen and as such draw the shared electrons to themselves more, inducing a partial positive charge (δ+) on the hydrogen atoms while they themselves develop a partial negative charge (δ-).

The following two compounds are constitutional isomers. Identify which of these is expected to be more acidic, and explain your
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

c. Compound 2 is more acidic because its conjugate base is more resonance stabilized

Explanation:

You haven't told us what the compounds are, so let's assume that the formula of Compound 1 is HCOCH₂OH and that of Compound 2 is CH₃COOH.

The conjugate base of 2 is CH₃COO⁻. It has two important resonance contributors, and the negative charge is evenly distributed between the two oxygen atoms.

CH₃COOH + H₂O ⇌ CH₃COO⁻ + H₃O⁺

The stabilization of the conjugate base pulls the position of equilibrium to the right, so the compound is more acidic than 1.
