What must always be true if a covalent bond is to be polar?

Chemistry

scZoUnD [109]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

If a covalent bond is polar the electronegativity difference between the elements of the compound is between 0.4 and 1.7

Explanation:

The electronegativity measures the power of an atom to attract electrons; if the electronegativity difference between the elements of the compound is big (more than 1.7) the compound will be ionic, that means, an atom or a group of atoms will give electrons and another atom of group of atoms will receive them; if the electronegativity difference is small (less than 0.4), the electrons will be shared by the atoms in a equitative way, i. e. the electrons will spend similar amount of time in the orbitals of each atom; but if the electronegativity difference is between 0.4 and 1.7  a covalent polar bond will be formed, that means valence electrons will spend more time in the orbitals of the most electronegative element.

N a polar covalent bond<span>, the electrons shared by the atoms spend a greater amount of time, on the average, closer to the Oxygen nucleus than the Hydrogen nucleus. This is because of the geometry of the molecule and the great electronegativity difference between the Hydrogen atom and the Oxygen atom.</span>

Stimulation optimization helps
EastWind [94]
Optimization helps you make better choices when you have all the data, and simulation helps you understand the possible outcomes when you don’t. Frontline Solvers enable you to combine these analytic methods, so you can make better choices for decisions you do control, taking into account the range of potential outcomes for factors you don’t control.

Answer : The balanced chemical equation will be:

(i) 2K+H_2SO_4\rightarrow K_2SO_4+H_2

(ii) Mg(OH)_2+Zn\rightarrow Zn(OH)_2+Mg

Explanation :

Balanced chemical equation : It is defined as the equation in which total number of individual atoms on the reactant side is equal to the total number of individual atoms on product side.

Part (i):

The balanced chemical equation will be:

2K+H_2SO_4\rightarrow K_2SO_4+H_2

This reaction is a single displacement reaction in which most reactive element (potassium) displaces the least reactive element (hydrogen) form their solution.

Part (ii):

The balanced chemical equation will be:

Mg(OH)_2+Zn\rightarrow Zn(OH)_2+Mg

This reaction is a single displacement reaction in which most reactive element (zinc) displaces the least reactive element (magnesium) form their solution.

A gas occupies a volume of 2.4 L at 14.1 kPa. What volume will the gas occupy at 84.6 kPa?
Naddik [55]

Answer:

  • <u>0.40 L</u>

Explanation:

Boyle's law for gases states that, at constant temperature, the volume and pressure of a fixed amount of gas are inversely related.

Mathematically, that is:

  • PV = constant

  • P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

Here, you have:

  • V₁ = 2.4 L
  • P₁ = 14.1 Kpa
  • P₂ = 84.6 KPa
  • V₂ = ?

Then, you can solve for V₂:

  • V₂ = P₁V₁ / P₂

Substitute and compute:

  • V₂ = 14.1 KPa × 2.4L / 84.6 KPa = 0.40 L ← answer

Describe the difference between a ball-and-stick model and a space-filling model of a compound.
Lisa [10]
A space-filling model shows the relative amount of space each atom takes up. In other words, a space-filling model can show relative sizes of atoms. However, unlike ball-and-stick or structural models, space-filling models do not show bond lengths clearly. Bonds are not really like sticks in a ball-and-stick model.

What is the mass in grams of 5.00moles of CH4?
anastassius [24]

Answer:

1. 80g

2. 1.188mole

Explanation:

1. We'll begin by obtaining the molar mass of CH4. This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of CH4 = 12 + (4x1) = 12 + 4 = 16g/mol

Number of mole of CH4 from the question = 5 moles

Mass of CH4 =?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of CH4 = 5 x 16

Mass of CH4 = 80g

2. Mass of O2 from the question = 38g

Molar Mass of O2 = 16x2 = 32g/mol

Number of mole O2 =?

Number of mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Number of mole of O2 = 38/32

Number of mole of O2 = 1.188mole
