A carbon-carbon double bond has a greater bond energy than a carbon-carbon single bond. Because of the greater bond energy, a ca
Ronch [10]

<u>Answer:</u> Carbon-carbon double bond is stronger and shorter than the single bond.

<u>Explanation:</u>

It is given that carbon-carbon double bond has greater energy than the carbon-carbon single bond.

Bond energy is directly proportional to the bond strength, which means that the double bond will have greater strength than single bond and triple bond has the greatest strength of all the bonds.

\text{Bond energy}\propto \text{Bond strength}

Bond energy is inversely proportional to the bond length of the carbon-carbon bond. This means that more is the bond energy, shorter will be the bond and vice-versa.

\text{Bond energy}\propto \frac{1}{\text{Bond Length}}

Hence, carbon-carbon double bond is stronger and shorter than the single bond.

How many grams of magnesium metal will react completely with 5.2 liters of 4.0 M HCl? Show all of the work needed to solve this
N76 [4]
Answer:
mass = 242.372 grams

Explanation:
1- getting the number of moles of HCl:
molarity = number of moles of solute / liters of solution
4 = number of moles of HCl / 5.2
number of moles of HCl = 4 * 5.2 = 20.8 moles

2- getting the number moles of magnesium:
From the balanced equation given, we can note that one mole of magnesium is required to react with two moles of HCl. To get the number of moles required to react with 20.8 moles of HCl. we will simply do cross multiplication as follows:
1 mole of Mg ...............> 2 moles of HCl
?? moles of Mg ...........> 20.8 moles of HCl
Number of moles of Mg = 20.8 / 2 = 10.4 moles

3- getting the mass of Mg:
number of moles = mass / molar mass
Using the periodic table, we can find that the molar mass of magnesium is 24.305 grams.
This means that:
10.4 = mass / 24.305
mass = 24.305 * 10.4
mass = 242.372 grams

Hope this helps :)

How many moles of oxygen are in 25.45 g of caco3?
emmainna [20.7K]
From the periodic table:
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
mass of calcium = 40 grams
mass of carbon = 12 grams
mass of CaCO3 = 40 + 12 + 3(16) = 100 grams
Therefore, each 100 grams of CaCO3 contains 3 moles of oxygen
To know the number of oxygen moles in 25.45 grams, we will simply do cross multiplication as follows:
number of oxygen moles = (25.45 x 3) / 100 = 0.7636

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

i. E = mc²

E = energy

m = mass

c = the speed of light

"Energy equals mass times the square of the speed of light.”

The equation says that energy and mass are interchangeable. If you multiply the mass of an object by c², you get its equivalent and of energy.

The SI base units for energy are kg·m²s⁻².  

The most common derived unit is the joule (J). Others are the newton-metre (N·m), kilowatt-hour (kWh), watt-second (W·s), and volt-coulomb (V·C).

ii. Nuclear vs chemical reactions

a. Alpha decay

\rm _{92}^{238}\text{U} \longrightarrow \,  _{2}^{4}\text{He} + \, _{90}^{234}\text{Th}

A nuclear reaction — like α decay — takes place in the nucleus of an atom.

An element becomes a different element.

b. Chemical reaction

Na· + ·Cl ⟶ Na⁺ + Cl⁻

A chemical reaction — like the formation of NaCl — involves rearranging the electrons, which are outside the nucleus.

The elements do not change.

Salt still consists of sodium and chlorine.
