(4) Si-O is the most polar, since their differences in electronegativity is the highest.
Vilka [71]3 years ago

Correct Answer: option 4: Si-O

Reason:
The bond polarity depends on the electronegativity difference between constituent atoms. Greater the electronegativity difference, polar is the bond. In present case, electronegativity of Si and O is 1.9 and 3.44 respectively. Hence, electronegativity difference is 1.54, which is greater as compared to other bonds on present interest. Hence, Si-O bond is considered to be more polar.

Identify the species oxidized, the species reduced, the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent in the following electron transfe
Vesna [10]

Answer:

In the given chemical reaction:

Species Oxidized: I⁻

Species Reduced: Fe³⁺

Oxidizing agent: Fe³⁺

Reducing agent: I⁻

As the reaction proceeds, electrons are transferred from I⁻ to Fe³⁺

Explanation:

Redox reaction is a chemical reaction involving the simultaneous movement of electrons thereby causing oxidation of one species and reduction of the other species.

The chemical species that <u><em>gets reduced by gaining electrons </em></u><u>is called an </u><u><em>oxidizing agent</em></u>. Whereas, the chemical species that <u><em>gets oxidized by losing electrons </em></u><u>is called a </u><u><em>reducing agent</em></u><u>.</u>

Given redox reaction: 2Fe³⁺ + 2I⁻ → 2Fe²⁺ + I₂

<u>Oxidation half-reaction</u>: 2 I⁻ +  → I₂ + 2 e⁻                 ....(1)

<u>Reduction half-reaction</u>: [ Fe³⁺ + 1 e⁻ → Fe²⁺ ] × 2

                                   ⇒  2 Fe³⁺ + 2 e⁻ → 2 Fe²⁺       ....(2)

In the given redox reaction, <u>Fe³⁺ (oxidation state +3) accepts electrons and gets reduced to Fe²⁺ (oxidation state +2) and I⁻ (oxidation state -1) loses electrons and gets oxidized to I₂ (oxidation state 0).</u>

<u>Therefore, Fe³⁺ is the oxidizing agent and I⁻ is the reducing agent and the electrons are transferred from I⁻ to Fe³⁺.</u>

Describe the contributions of 3 scientists to our current understanding of the atom
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

1. Rutherford did the scattering experiment and observed that some of the rays bounce back. He concluded that there is a mass in which positive charge is concentrated. This marks the discovery of nucleus.

2. J.J Thomson discovered electrons by conducting cathode ray experiment.

3. Dalton postulated that matter is made up of small particles caled atoms

In a water molecule (H2O), the oxygen atom has two unshared pairs of electrons and two bonding pairs of electrons. How do the un
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

They reduce the bond angle to be slightly lower than the tetrahedral bond angle, approximately 104.45 degrees.

Explanation:

The unshared pair of electrons or lone pair electrons in order to have the minimum repulsion possible with each other pushes the other bonding pairs closer together making the bond angle smaller or bent.

The bond angle is slightly lower than the tetrahedral bond angle of 108 degrees, leaving the water molecule with a bent molecular geometry.

Consider the reaction H2(g) + I2(g) &lt;---&gt; HI(g) with an equilibrium constant of 46.3 and a reaction quotient of 525. Which
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The equilibrium will shift to the left to favor the reactants.

Explanation:

Remember that the reaction quotient (Qc) is derived from initial concentrations of reactants and products. Since Qc is greater than Kc, this means that initial concentrations are heavily impacted by a high product concentration ([HI]). Therefore, the reverse reaction will occur and actually create more reactants again ([H2] and [I2]). Thus, the answer is that the equilibrium will shift to the left side to favor the reactants.
