Why are the molecules of hydrogen chloride gas (hcl) more tightly bound to each other than molecules of oxygen gas (o2)?

1 answer:

4 0

Answer : If we consider the molecule of oxygen gas which in diatomic state, is bonded to other atom which is of same element this is called as homonuclear.

While in HCl there is a heteronuclear bonding observed because there are two different elements getting involved in the bond formation, also it creates a electrovalent species in itself and makes it more polar. They are creating a dipole moment by separating different charges in the molecule which cause it to get tightly bonded with each other.

How many moles of \ce{Fe2O3}FeX 2 OX 3 will be produced from 27.0 \text{ g}27.0 g27, point, 0, start text, space, g, end tex

ira [324]

Answer : The number of moles of $Fe_2O_3$ produced will be, 0.241 moles.

Solution : Given,

Mass of Fe = 27.0 g

Molar mass of $Fe$ = 56 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of $Fe$ .

$\text{ Moles of }Fe=\frac{\text{ Mass of }Fe}{\text{ Molar mass of }Fe}=\frac{27.0g}{56g/mole}=0.482moles$

Now we have to calculate the moles of $Fe_2O_3$

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3$

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 4 mole of $Fe$ react to give 2 mole of $Fe_2O_3$

So, 0.482 moles of $Fe$ react to give $\frac{0.482}{4}\times 2=0.241$ moles of $Fe_2O_3$

Thus, the number of moles of $Fe_2O_3$ produced will be, 0.241 moles.

1. A 2-kg bowling ball sits on top of a building that is 40 meters tall. (5 pts) Circle one: KE / GPE / both ( can you show work

Potential energy is energy due to an object's height above the ground.
Potential energy = mass x gravity x height
Kinetic energy is energy due to the motion of the object.
Kinetic energy = 1/2 x mass x velocity²

1.
The ball is not moving and is at a height above the ground so it has only potential energy.
P.E = 2 x 9.81 x 40
P.E = 784.8 J

2.
The ball is moving and has a height above the Earth's surface so it has both kinetic and potential energy.
P.E = same as part 1 = 784.8 J
K.E = 1/2 x 2 x 5²
K.E = 25 J

3.
The ball has no height above the Earth's surface and is moving so it has only kinetic energy.
K.E = 1/2 x 2 x 10²
K.E = 100 J

4.
50000 = 1/2 x 1000 x v²
v = 10 m/s

5.
39200 = 200 x 9.81 x h
h = 20.0 m

6.
12.5 = 1/2 x 1 x v²
v = 5 m/s
98 = 1 x 9.81 x h
h = 10.0 m

Can somebody plz help answer this science questions (only 1-2 sentences is good thx !

Mrac [35]

I believe it’s because they are trying to find other things that won’t pollute the environment as much, and they are also doing this because we are trying to reduce green house gas. Sorry if i’m wrong :(

The two methods in the lab for measuring the volume of a geometric solid object are weighing it on the balance and measuring it

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Measuring with a ruler and using final volume minus initial volume

Explanation:

You can measure the volume of a geometric object by measuring its sides with a ruler and calculating the volume according to the corresponding formula for each object. For example, for a rectangular prism it would be

$volume=length*width*height$

You can also measure the volume of an object by measuring how much water it displaces. To do this you have to fill a measuring cylinder with enough water for the object to be completely submerged and take note of the volume. Then, add the object and note again the volume of the water+object. The difference between both is the volume of the object.

$Volume of the object= volume of water and object - volume of water$

The advantage of the second method is that it can be used for objects with irregular shapes as long as they do not float.
