Which statement best describes the properties of covalent compounds

Chemistry
1 answer:
amm18124 years ago
8 0

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.

Ethyl acetate can be prepared by an SN2 reaction. Draw the alkylbromide and nucleophile used in the reaction. Remember to includ
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Few important points related to S_N2 reaction:

1. S_N2 is a one-step reaction that follows second order kinetics.

2. In S_N2 reaction, a transition state is formed in situ.

3. Strong nucleophiles like OH^- \ or\  CN^- are used in case of bi-molecular nucleophilic substitution reaction.

Ethyl acetate can be prepared by a second-order nucleophilic substitution reaction between acetic acid and ethyl bromide.  

The reaction between acetic acid and ethyl bromide is drawn below:

A chemist prepares a solution of aluminum sulfate (Al2(SO4) by weighing out 116.0 g of aluminum sulfate into a 450. mL volumetri
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

0.0733 mol /dL

Explanation:

Mole -

Moles is denoted by given mass divided by the molecular mass ,

Hence ,

n = w / m

n = moles ,

w = given mass ,

m = molecular mass .

From the information of the question ,

w = 116.0 g

As we know, molecular mass of aluminum sulfate ,

m = 342.15 g/mol

n = w / m  

n = 116.0 g /  342.15 g/mol = 0.33 mol

Molarity -

Molarity of a substance , is the number of moles present in a liter of solution .

M = n / V

M = molarity

V = volume of solution in liter ,

n = moles of solute ,

The unit is mol / L ,

Hence , from the question, the value of molarity is asked ,

From the information of the question ,

V = 450 mL ,

Since,

1 mL = 0.01 dL

As, the unit asked in the question is in dL,

V = 4.5 dL

n = 0.33 mol ( as calculated above )

Using the above formula ,

M = n / V  

M = 0.33 mol / 4.5 dL

M = 0.0733 mol /dL

M =
