Answer:

A. The carbons share three pairs of electrons in ethyne and only two pairs in ethene

Explanation:

Both ethene and ethyne are hydrocarbons i.e. they contain C and H.

Ethene belongs to the alkene series with a formula C2H4. Here the carbon atoms are linked together via a double bond and carbon and hydrogens are linked via a single bond.

Ethyne belongs to the alkyne series with a formula C2H2. The C atoms are linked by a triple bond and carbon and hydrogens are linked via a single bond.

Since each bond constitutes a pair of electrons, accordingly the carbons share three pairs of electrons in ethyne and only two pairs in ethene.

The correct answer is A. The carbons in ethyne share three pairs of electrons which makes it an alkyne while in ethene only two pair of electrons are being shared by the two carbon atoms. In other words, ethyne contains a triple bond while ethene contains a double bond.

What mass of silver chloride can be produced from 1.65 l of a 0.240 m solution of silver nitrate?
Liono4ka [1.6K]
Check table T and use the concentration equation. Molarity= moles of solute/ liters of solution.

So 0.240 = x/ 1.65 once u find the # of miles of solute (x=.396) and substitute that

Wait I'm not sure if it's correct

Predict the formula of the ionic compound that would result from combining the monatomic ions formed by each pair of elements. M
skad [1K]

Answer:

E - Be and O

A - Mg and N

E - Li and Br

F - Ba and Cl

B - Rb and O

Explanation:

Be and O

Be is a metal that loses 2 e⁻ to form Be²⁺ and O is a nonmetal that gains 2 e⁻ to form O²⁻. For the ionic compound to be neutral, it must have the form BeO (E-MX).

Mg and N

Mg is a metal that loses 2 e⁻ to form Mg²⁺ and N is a nonmetal that gains 3 e⁻ to form O³⁻. For the ionic compound to be neutral, it must have the form Mg₃N₂ (A-M₃X₂).

Li and Br

Li is a metal that loses 1 e⁻ to form Li⁺ and Br is a nonmetal that gains 1 e⁻ to form Br⁻. For the ionic compound to be neutral, it must have the form LiBr (E-MX).

Ba and Cl

Ba is a metal that loses 2 e⁻ to form Ba²⁺ and Cl is a nonmetal that gains 1 e⁻ to form Cl⁻. For the ionic compound to be neutral, it must have the form BaCl₂ (F-MX₂).

Rb and O

Rb is a metal that loses 1 e⁻ to form Rb⁺ and O is a nonmetal that gains 2 e⁻ to form O²⁻. For the ionic compound to be neutral, it must have the form Rb₂O (B-M₂X).

If ammonia is manufactured at 356 k, is the reaction spontaneous, given that the enthalpy and entropy change for the reaction ar
Alchen [17]
The reaction will be spontaneous if Gibb free energy is negative, according the following relation:  
G = H - T*S  
where G is Gibbs free energy, T is change of enthalpy , T is temperature and S is change of entropy  
In the case of ammonia:  
G = -93000 - 356*(-198) = -93000 + 70488 = -22512 j/mol  
As G < 0 then the reaction is spontaneous.
