Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Covalent bonds are bonds between to atoms that share a pair of electrons, there are three kinds of covalent bonds but I'll describe only two:

Covalent non polar bond: is a covalent bond between two elements of the same element. Ex two hydrogens, two chlorine, two oxygenes, etc.

Covalent polar bond: is a covalent bond between 2 elements of different elements, for example: hydrogen and chlorine or nitrogen, they are polar because on of the element that form it is smaller than the other one, then a partial positive and a partial negative charge is formed.

How much heat is released as the temperature of 25.2 grams of iron is decreased from 72.1°C to 9.8°C? The specific heat of iron

prisoha [69]

Answer:

$Q=-697.06\ J$

Negative sign says that release of heat.

Explanation:

The expression for the calculation of the heat released or absorbed of a process is shown below as:-

$Q=m\times C\times \Delta T$

Where,

$\Delta H$ is the heat released or absorbed

m is the mass

C is the specific heat capacity

$\Delta T$ is the temperature change

Thus, given that:-

Mass = 25.2 g

Specific heat = 0.444 J/g°C

$\Delta T=9.8-72.1\ ^0C=-62.3\ ^0C$

So,

$Q=25.2\times 0.444\times -62.3\ J=-697.06\ J$

Negative sign says that release of heat.

A neutron has a mass A. that is less than the mass of an electron. B. that is about equal to the mass of an electron. C. that is

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Option C:- that is equal to mass of an proton.

Explanation:

Protons and neutrons have approximately the same mass, about 1.67 × 10-24 grams, which scientists define as one atomic mass unit (amu) or one Dalton. While electron has mass of 9.31 ×10⁻¹⁹.

Using the balanced equation for the combustion of ethane: 2C2H6 + 7O2 → 4CO2 + 6H2O, how many moles of O2 needed to produce 12 m

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

14 moles of oxygen needed to produce 12 moles of H2O.

Explanation:

We are given that balance eqaution

$2C_2H_6+7O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+6H_2O$

We have to find number of moles of O2 needed to produce 12 moles of H2O.

From given equation

We can see that

6 moles of H2O produced by Oxygen =7 moles

1 mole of H2O produced by Oxygen= $\frac{7}{6}$ moles

12 moles of H2O produced by Oxygen= $\frac{7}{6}\times 12$ moles

12 moles of H2O produced by Oxygen= $7\times 2$ moles

12 moles of H2O produced by Oxygen=14 moles

Hence, 14 moles of oxygen needed to produce 12 moles of H2O.

In which of the following compounds does the carbonyl stretch in the IR spectrum occur at the lowest wavenumber?

klio [65]

Answer:

a. Cyclohexanone

Explanation:

The principle of IR technique is based on the vibration of the bonds by using the energy that is in this region of the electromagnetic spectrum. For each bond, there is a specific energy that generates a specific vibration. In this case, you want to study the vibration that is given in the carbonyl group C=O. Which is located around 1700 cm-1.

Now, we must remember that the lower the wavenumber we will have less energy. So, what we should look for in these molecules, is a carbonyl group in which less energy is needed to vibrate since we look for the molecule with a smaller wavenumber.

If we look at the structure of all the molecules we will find that in the last three we have heteroatoms (atoms different to carbon I hydrogen) on the right side of the carbonyl group. These atoms allow the production of resonance structures which makes the molecule more stable. If the molecule is more stable we will need more energy to make it vibrate and therefore greater wavenumbers.

The molecule that fulfills this condition is the cyclohexanone.

See figure 1

I hope it helps!
