Correct option is c) oxygen and hydrogen.... like in <u><em>H2O .. </em></u><em> </em> there is covalent bond due to sharing of electrons ...<em />
Olin [163]3 years ago

Explanation:

Atoms that share electrons with each other tend to form a covalent bond. Whereas atoms that show transfer of electrons from one atom to another tend to form an ionic bond.

Sodium has atomic number 11 and oxygen has atomic number 8. In order to become stabilized, sodium needs to lose one electron whereas oxygen needs to gain two electrons. So, two sodium atoms will combine with one atom of oxygen. This will form an ionic bond between sodium and oxygen atom.

Carbon has atomic number 4 and fluorine has atomic number 9. Therefore, both of them will share electrons in order to become stabilized. Thus, they will form a covalent bond.

Oxygen atom has atomic number 8 and hydrogen has atomic number 1. Therefore, both of them will share electrons but due to difference in electronegativity of both hydrogen and oxygen they will result in the formation of a polar covalent bond.

Aluminium has atomic number 13 and chlorine has atomic number 17. So, aluminium will donate or transfer its valence electron to chlorine atom. Therefore, it will also form an ionic bond.

Thus, we can conclude that carbon (C) and fluorine (F) and oxygen (O) and hydrogen (H) are the combination(s) that would result in sharing of electrons.

If the gas in the piston above has a volume of 20.0 L at a temperature of 25 C what is the volume of that gas when it is heated
dexar [7]

Answer:

15.98 L

Explanation:

First, you need to find T1, T2, V1 and V2.

T1 = 25 C = 298.15 K (25C + 273.15K)

T2 = 100 C = 373.15 K (100C + 273.15K)

V1 = 20. L

V2 = ? (we are trying to find)

Next, rearrange to fit the formula

V2 = V1 x T1 / T2

Next, fill in with our numbers

V2 = 20. L x 298.15 K / 373.15 K

Do the math and you should get...

15.98 L

- If you need more help or futher explanation please let me know. I would be glad to help!

A chemical reference book says that substance x is not soluble in water
oksano4ka [1.4K]
<span>The normal dividing line for soluble/not soluble is 0.1 M. 

If a substance, as a saturated solution at room temp and pressure, cannot form a solution concentration of 0.1 M, then it is considered insoluble. 

The 0.1 M figure was selected because _most_ substances are either well above that value or well below. Some substances (calcium hydroxide is one? not sure) come close to the 0.1 M dividing line but there are only a very few.</span><span>

Which of the following processes are exothermic?Which of the following processes are exothermic?Br(g) + e- → Br-(g)Li(s) → Li(g)
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

The correct answer is:  None of the above are exothermic.

Explanation:

Energy is the ability to perform a job or to produce heat. Chemical reactions involve a rearrangement of atoms between substances with rupture or formation of chemical bonds and this generates changes in the energy of the system.

An exothermic reaction is that reaction where heat is released. This means that the energy of the molecules of the products is less than the energy of the molecules of the reactants.

An endothermic reaction is that chemical reaction that, when it occurs, consumes energy, that is, the products obtained have greater energy than the initial reagents, since they have taken part of the heat of the environment.

Sublimation is the change of state of a substance from solid to gas directly without going through the liquid state. This process requires energy to be carried out because the strong attractive energies between the solid molecules must be broken. So it is an endothermic process. This is what happens in the following reactions:

Li(s) → Li(g)

NaF(s) → Na+(g) + F-(g)

Dissociation is a process in which complexes, molecules or salts are separated into smaller molecules, ions or radicals, usually reversibly. Within the dissociation is the homolytic rupture, where each atom separates and carries the same charge of electrons. Thus free radicals are formed. To dissociate or break these bonds requires energy, so it is endothermic. This type of reaction occurs in:

Cl2(g) → 2Cl(g)

Electronic affinity is defined as the energy exchanged when an isolated and fundamental state gaseous atom takes an electron to form an anion (negative ion).  When the electronic affinity is greater than zero, the process would be endothermic and when the electroaffinity is less than zero, the process would be exothermic.

This occurs in:

Br(g) + e- → Br-(g)

The highest electronic affinities are for the elements of group 17 of the periodic table, the group to which bromine belongs. This means that the electronic affinity is greater than zero and is endothermic.

<u><em>The correct answer is:  None of the above are exothermic.</em></u>

<u><em>Br(g) + e- → Br-(g) </em></u>

A gas that has a volume of 28 liters, a temperature of 42°C, and an unknown pressure has its volume increased to 49 liters and i
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

7.35atm

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

V1 = 28L

T1 = 42°C = 42 + 273 = 315K

P1 =?

V2 = 49L

T2 = 27°C = 27 + 273 = 300K

P2 = 4atm

Using P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2, the original pressure can be obtained as follows:

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

P1 x 28/315 = 4 x 49/300

Cross multiply to express in linear form

P1 x 28 x 300 = 315 x 4 x 49

Divide both side by 28 x 300

P1 = (315 x 4 x 49) /(28 x 300)

P1 = 7.35atm

Therefore, the original pressure is 7.35atm
