The bonds in the SiCl₄ molecules will be more polar.
The polarity of bonds within a molecule depends on the difference in electronegativity of the atoms that are involved in the bond. Chlorine is a more electronegative atom than iodine. Therefore, the electrons in the Si-Cl bond will be more concentrated near the Cl, creating polarity in the bond. Iodine is not as electronegative, so it will not result in a very polarized Si-I bond
B. A solar cycle usually lasts 11 years.
- E(Bonds broken) = 1371 kJ/mol reaction
- E(Bonds formed) = 1852 kJ/mol reaction
- ΔH = -481 kJ/mol.
- The reaction is exothermic.
<h3>Explanation</h3>
2 H-H + O=O → 2 H-O-H
There are two moles of H-H bonds and one mole of O=O bonds in one mole of reactants. All of them will break in the reaction. That will absorb
- E(Bonds broken) = 2 × 436 + 499 = 1371 kJ/mol reaction.
- ΔH(Breaking bonds) = +1371 kJ/mol
Each mole of the reaction will form two moles of water molecules. Each mole of H₂O molecules have two moles O-H bonds. Two moles of the molecule will have four moles of O-H bonds. Forming all those bond will release
- E(Bonds formed) = 2 × 2 × 463 = 1852 kJ/mol reaction.
- ΔH(Forming bonds) = - 1852 kJ/mol
Heat of the reaction:
is negative. As a result, the reaction is exothermic.

<u>Answer</u>:
Electric evaporator has been used to clean up the Chernobyl and 3 mile island accident.
<u>Explanation</u>:
About 14 years back, there was a puff of radioactive steam from the evaporator used in the "Three-mile island" nuclear plant. It took two years for the electric evaporator to clean up the 2.2 million gallons of water that have been destroyed because of the nuclear power plant accident.
The steam that came out of the electric evaporator carried a radioactive form of hydrogen and tritium with itself. Cost of clean up was $1 billion.
