Which statement best describes the properties of covalent compounds

1 answer:

Most covalent compounds have relatively low melting points and boiling points. Covalent compounds usually have lower enthalpies of fusion and vaporization than ionic compounds. Covalent compounds tend to be more flammable than ionic compounds. When dissolved in water, they don't conduct electricity.

An unknown solution has a pH of 2. How would you classify this solution?

devlian [24]

Acidic because anything over a ph of 7 would be basic but anything below 7 would be acid and if it has a ph of 7 it would be neutral....Hope I helped

What mass of powdered drink mix is needed to make a 0.5 M solution of 100 mL?

Maru [420]

Answer:

There is 17,114825 g of powdered drink mix needed

Explanation:

<u>Step 1 :</u> Calculate moles

As given, the concentration of the drink is 0.5 M, this means 0.5 mol / L

Since the volume is 100mL, we have to convert the concentration,

⇒0.5 / 1 = x /0.1 ⇒ 0.5* 0.1 = x = 0.05 M

This means there is 0.05 mol per 100mL

e

<u>Step 2 </u>: calculate mass of the powdered drink

here we use the formula n (mole) = m(mass) / M (Molar mass)

⇒ since powdered drink mix is usually made of sucrose (C12H22O11) and has a molar mass of 342.2965 g/mol.

0.05 mol = mass / 342.2965 g/mol

To find the mass, we isolate it ⇒0.05 mol * 342.2965 g/mol = 17,114825g

There is 17,114825 g of powdered drink mix needed

What is the mass of 5 mole of ammonia . Calculate the number of NH₃ molecules, nitrogen atom and hydrogen atoms in it..

Aloiza [94]

Molar mass of NH_3

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 14u+3(1u)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 14u+3u$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 17g/mol$

We know.

No of moles=Given mass/Molar mass

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Given\;Mass=17(5)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Given \:Mass\:of\:NH_3=85g$

Now

Lets write the balanced equation

$\\ \sf\longmapsto N_2+3H_2=2NH_3$

There is 2moles of Ammonia
3moles of H_2
1mole of N_2

Now

$\boxed{\sf No\:of\:Molecules =No\:of\;moles\times Avagadro\:no}$

For Hydrogen

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3\times 6.023\times 10^{23}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 18.069\times 10^{23}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 1.8\times 10^{22}molecules$

For Ammonia

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 2\times 6.023\times 10^{23}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 12.046\times 10^{23}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 1.2\times 10^{22}molecules$

For Nitrogen

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 1\times 6.023\times 10^{23}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 6.023\times 10^{23}molecules$
