Which of these formulas contains the most polar bond? (1) H–Br (3) H–F(2) H–Cl (4) H–I

1 answer:

3 0

The answer is H—F. Fluorine is the most electronegative of the four halogens (and, in fact, of all the elements), so it does the best job of gathering the shared electrons to itself. Therefore, the bond with F is the most polar

The Chemistry Cafe was out of bread. The cook went next door to the bakery and bought a loaf of bread which has 33 slices. Then,

maria [59]

In the question, we are told that there are;

A loaf containing 33 slices
A loaf containing 33 slices A package of cheese containing 15 slices

We also know that he is making a sandwich that has 2 pieces of both cheese and bread.

Hence;

Total number of bread and cheese = 33 + 15.

Each loaf should have two pieces of each bread and the cheeses make a total of four pieces.

Therefore he can make = 33 + 15/4 = 12 sandwiches.

Question 5 why does grinding solid crystals increase the rate of dissolving for a solid solute in water? smaller crystals are mo

My name is Ann [436]

Grinding solid crystals increase the rate of dissolving for a solid solute in water because smaller crystals have more surface area. The solubility of a substance depends on the physical and chemical properties of the solute and solvent as well as the temperature, pressure and the pH of the solution. For example increase in temperature increases the rate at which a solute dissolves in a solvent.

What’s the mass of 2.80 mol of ca

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

112.22 g

Explanation:

mass = no. of moles x atomic mass

From the periodic table, we can see the atomic mass of Ca is 40.078.

Therefore,

mass = 2.80 x 40.078

= 112.22g (corrected to 2 decimal places.)

3. Identify the oxidizing agent in each of the fol-

Oxana [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Oxidizing agents:

Oxidizing agents oxidize the other elements and itself gets reduced.

Reducing agents:

Reducing agents reduced the other element are it self gets oxidized.

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

a) Cu²⁺ (aq) + Mg(s) + Cu(s) + Mg²⁺(aq)

Copper is oxidizing agent it accept two electrons from magnesium and oxidize the Mg and itself get reduced.

b) Fe₂O₃(s) + 3CO(g) → 2Fe(l) + 3CO₂(g)

In this reaction iron is oxidizing agent because iron itself reduced from +3 to 0.

A sample of a compound is decomposed in the laboratory and produces 330 g carbon, 69.5 g hydrogen, and 220.2 g oxygen. Calculate

Zarrin [17]

Answer: Empirical formula is $C_2H_5O$

Explanation: We are given the masses of elements present in a sample of compound. To evaluate empirical formula, we will be following some steps.

Step 1 : Converting each of the given masses into their moles by dividing them by Molar masses.

$Moles=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Molar mass of Carbon = 12.0 g/mol

Molar mass of Hydrogen = 1.0 g/mol

Molar mass of Oxygen = 16.0 g/mol

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{330g}{12g/mol}=27.5moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{69.5g}{1g/mol}=69.5moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{220.2g}{16g/mol}=13.76moles$

Step 2: Dividing each mole value by the smallest number of moles calculated above and rounding it off to the nearest whole number value

Smallest number of moles = 13.76 moles

$\text{Mole ratio of Carbon}=\frac{27.5moles}{13.76moles}=1.99\approx 2$

$\text{Mole ratio of Hydrogen}=\frac{69.5moles}{13.76moles}=5.05\approx 5$

$\text{Mole ratio of Oxygen}=\frac{13.76moles}{13.76moles}=1$

Step 3: Now, the moles ratio of the elements are represented by the subscripts in the empirical formula

Empirical formula becomes = $C_2H_5O$
