gregori [183]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

We can only talk about resonance hybrid for a compound in which more than one structure is possible based on its observed chemical properties.

There are compounds whose chemical properties can not be satisfactorily explained on the basis of a single chemical structure. In the case of such compounds, we invoke the idea of resonance.

A resonance hybrid is a single structure drawn to represent a given chemical specie which exhibits resonance behaviour and can otherwise be represented on paper in the form of an average of two or more chemical structures separated each from the next by a double-headed arrow.

How can a piece of wood floating on water illustrate the condition of lowest potential energy and maximum
drek231 [11]

Answer:

By minimizing the height of the body's center of gravity relative to its center of buoyancy

Explanation:

In hydrostatics, the equilibrium state of a floating body relates to either a maximum or minimum of the potential energy.An equilibrium is stable when the potential energy is minimum.Minimizing the height of the floating body's center of gravity relative to its center of buoyancy attains a stable equilibrium configuration.

Calculate the equilibrium constant of the reaction below if the pressures are 1.0atm, 2.0 atm, and 1.0 atm respectively. PCl3 +
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

K = 0.5

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

PCl₃ + Cl₂ ⇄ PCl₅

The equilibrium constant, K, is defined as:

K = P PCl₅ / P PCl₃ * P Cl₂

<em>Where P represent the pressure at the equilibrium for each one of the gases involved in the equilibrium.</em>

<em />

As:

P PCl₅ = 1.0atm

P PCl₃ = 1.0atm

P Cl₂ = 2.0atm

K = 1.0atm / 1.0atm * 2.0atm

<h3>K = 0.5</h3>

The entropy change for a real, irreversible process is equal to:______.
taurus [48]

Answer:

The entropy change for a real, irreversible process is equal to <u>zero.</u>

The correct option is<u> 'c'.</u>

Explanation:

<u>Lets look around all the given options -:</u>

(a)  the entropy change for a theoretical reversible process with the same initial and final states , since the entropy change is equal and opposite in reversible process , thus this option in not correct.

(b) equal to the entropy change for the same process performed reversibly ONLY if the process can be reversed at all. Since , the change is same as well as opposite too . Therefore , this statement is also not true .

(c) zero. This option is true because We generate more entropy in an irreversible process. Because no heat moves into or out of the surroundings during the procedure, the entropy change of the surroundings is zero.

(d) impossible to tell. This option is invalid , thus incorrect .

<u>Hence , the correct option is 'c' that is zero.</u>

Molybdenum has a molar mass of 95.94g/mol. How many molecules of molybdenum are in 150.0 g of molybdenum
Kitty [74]
We are given the molar mass of Molybdenum as 95.94 g/mol. Also, the chemical symbol for Molybdenum is Mo. This question is asking for the amount of molecules of molybdenum in a 150.0 g sample. However, since molybdenum is a metal and it is in the form of solid molybdenum, Mo (s), it is not actual a molecule. A molecule has one or more atom bonded together. We will instead be finding the amount of atoms of Molybdenum present in the sample. To do this we use Avogadro's number, which is the amount of atoms/molecules of a substance in 1 mole of that substance.

150.0 g Mo/ 95.94 g/mol = 1.563 moles of Mo

1.563 moles Mo x 6.022 x 10²³ atoms/mole = 9.415 x 10²³ atoms Mo

Therefore, there are 9.415 x 10²³ atoms of Molybdenum in 150.0 g.
