Answer:

Ionic compound are when electrons are given to another element, making one atom positive and the other negative, so they attract. Covalent compound is when both atoms share electrons with each other.

Molarity of 0.50 mol sugar in 270 mL of solution.

EastWind [94]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.85 M

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

Number of moles as 0.50 mol
Volume of the solution is 270 ml

But, 1000 mL = 1 L

Thus, volume of the solution is 0.27 L

We are required to calculate the molarity of the solution;

Molarity refers to the concentration of a solution in moles per liter.
It is calculated by dividing number of moles with the volume.

Molarity = Moles ÷ Volume

In this case;

Molarity = 0.50 moles ÷ 0.27 L

= 1.85 Mol/L or 1.85 M

Therefore, molarity of the solution is 1.85 M

the chemical compound C2F4 is used to make PTEE (Teflon). How manyC2F4 molecules are in 485 kilograms of this material?

monitta

Answer:

$molecules=2.92x10^{27}moleculesC_2F_4$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we use the Avogadro's number to compute the molecules of C2F4 whose molar mass is 100 g/mol contained in a 485-kg sample as shown below:

$molecules=485kgC_2F_4*\frac{1000gC_2F_4}{1kgC_2F_4} *\frac{1molC_2F_4}{100gC_2F_4}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}molecules C_2F_4}{1molC_2F_4} \\\\molecules=2.92x10^{27}moleculesC_2F_4$

Best regards,

Reptile [31]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Chris the Chemist was working in the lab, and he wanted to see what would happen if he put copper chloride into a Bunsen burner flame. As soon as he put it in the flame, it began to emit a green color. Which of these BEST describes this outcome?

A) The heat split the nucleus and created a new element.

B) As the copper chloride was heated, electrons were turned into neutrons.

C) As the electrons moved to a higher energy level, a photon of light is emitted.

D) When excited electrons return back to the ground state, a photon of light is emitted.

Answer:

D) When excited electrons return back to the ground state, a photon of light is emitted.

Explanation:

According to Bohr's model of the atom, electrons may absorb energy and move up to higher energy levels.

These electrons quickly return to ground state from such higher energy excited states thereby emitting the excess energy absorbed during excitation.

If the higher energy level is E2 and the ground state is E1 then the energy of the photon emitted when the electron descends from energy level E2 to E1 is;

ΔE = E2 - E1

This photon emitted accounts for the green colour of the copper salt observed when it was heated.

Write a net ionic equation to show that acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), hc9h7o4, behaves as a brÃ¸nsted-lowry acid in water.

Thepotemich [5.8K]

By definition, Bronsted-Lowry acid is a proton donor in the acid-base neutralization reaction. When a weak acid like acetylsalicylic acid is reacted with water, the water here acts as the Bronsted-Lowry base. This is possible because water has properties of amphoterism - can act as an acid or base. In this case, acetylsalicylic acid would have to donate its H+ atom to water, so that it would yield a hydronium ion, H₃O⁺. The complete net ionic reaction is shown in the picture.

So, in the reaction, the products yield are the acetylsalicylate ion and the hydronium ion.

Give explanations for the large drops in melting point from C to Si and from Ge to Sn.

____ [38]

As we move down the group, the metallic bond becomes more stable and the formation of forming covalent bond decreases down the group due to the large size of elements.

Covalent and metallic bonding leads to higher melting points. Due to a decrease in attractive forces from carbon to lead there is a drop in melting point.

Carbon forms large covalent molecules than silicon and hence has a higher melting point than silicon.

Similarly, Ge also forms a large number of covalent bonds and has a smaller size as compared to that of Sn. Hence melting point decreases from Ge to Sn.

The order will be C>Si>Ge>Pb>Sn.
