The electron pair in a H-F bond could be considered___.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Leno4ka [110]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: b) closer to F because fluorine has a higher electronegativity than hydrogen.

Explanation:

Electronegativity is defined as the property of an element to attract a shared pair of electron towards itself.

A polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is a difference of electronegativities between the atoms.

Non-polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is no difference of electronegativities between the atoms.

electronegativity of flourine = 3.98

electronegativity of hydrogen = 2.1

As electronegativity of flourine is greater than that of electronegativity of hydrogen, the electron pair lie towards flourine , thus creating a partial negative charge on flourine and a partial positive charge on hydrogen.

Why do a planets speed change in orbit
gayaneshka [121]

According to Kepler's  second law of orbital motion, a plane's orbital speed changes , depending on how far it is from the sun. The closer a planet is to the sun, the stronger the sun's gravitational pull on it, and the faster the planet moves.  The farther away from the sun, the weaker the sun's gravitational pull and the slower it moves in its orbit.

The orbit of a planet around the sun is not  a perfect circle, but  an ellipse - a flattened circle.

What is the minimum volume of 5.50 M HCl necessary to neutralize completely the hydroxide in 718.0 mL of 0.183 M NaOH
Deffense [45]

The volume of HCl required is 23.89 mL

Calculation of volume:

The reaction:

HCl + NaOH \rightarrow NaCl + H_2O

As HCl and NaOH react in 1 : 1 ratio.

Volume of NaOH= 718 mL

Concentration= 0.183M

Volume of HCl= ?

Concentration= 5.50M

Using the dilution formula:

M_1\times V_1(NaOH)= M_2\times V_2(HCl)

0.183\times 718= 5.50 \times V_2\\V_2=\frac{131.394}{5.50} \\V_2 = 23.89 \,mL

Therefore,

Volume of HCl required will be 23.89 mL.

As a result of the gold foil experiment, it was concluded that an atom(1) contains protons, neutrons, and electrons(2) contains
grin007 [14]
The answer is (2). If you recall Rutherford's gold foil experiment, remember that a stream of positively charged alpha particles were shot at a gold foil in the center of a detector ring. The important observation was that although most of the particles passed straight through the foil without being deflected, a tiny fraction of the alpha particles were deflected off the axis of the shot, and some were even deflected almost back to the point from which they were shot. The fact that some of the alpha particles were deflected indicated a positive charge (because same charges repel), and the fact that only a small fraction of the particles were deflected indicated that the positive charge was concentrated in a small area, probably residing at the center of the atom.
