Answer:

It is the sharing of electrons between atoms with an electronegativity difference below 1.7.

Explanation:

Covalent bond is the bond which is formed with the sharing of the electrons between the two atoms which are taking part in the bond. It is generally formed between the atoms with similar electronegativity values.

It is the bond which is generally occurs within non metals as they share electrons to complete their octet.

The difference in the electronegativity values of the atoms involving in a covalent bond must not exceed the value of 1.7 .

<u>Correct answer:- It is the sharing of electrons between atoms with an electronegativity difference below 1.7.</u>

I think it is C, because a covalent bond is a distribution of 2 atoms to 1 electron, meaning they are sharing and not exchanging, and the electronegravity would be above 1.7

A solution was prepared by mixing 0.5000 m hno2 with 0.380 m no2-. ka = 4.58 x 10-4. calculate the ph of the solution. show work

adell [148]

pH of buffer can be calculated as:

pH=pKa+log[salt]/[Acid]

As ka = 4.58 x 10-4

Concentration of [Salt] that is NO2(-1)=0.380M

Concentration of [Acid] that is HNO2=0.500M

So, pH= -log(4.58*10^-4)+log((0.380)/0.500))

=3.21

So pH of solution will be 3.21

Las sustancias ionicas y los metale sson electricamente neutros. ¿como es esto posible si estan formados por iones, que posen ca

Anton [14]

Answer:

ver explicacion

Explanation:

Los iones se forman cuando las especies químicas pierden o ganan electrones.

Las sustancias iónicas consisten en un ión positivo y negativo cuyas cargas se equilibran exactamente entre sí, por lo que el compuesto iónico es neutro.

Los átomos de metal se mantienen unidos por el enlace metálico. Esto implica la interacción entre iones metálicos cargados positivamente y un mar de electrones negativos. Las cargas positivas de los iones metálicos están exactamente equilibradas por el mar de electrones cargados negativamente, por lo que el metal es neutro.

The rms (root-mean-square) speed of a diatomic hydrogen molecule at 50∘c is 2000 m/s. Note that 1. 0 mol of diatomic hydrogen at

Leno4ka [110]

The rms speed will be 500 m/s

<h3>What is Root mean square speed ?</h3>

Root mean square speed (Vrms) is defined as the square root of the mean of the square of speeds of all molecules.

Root mean square speed (vrms) Root mean square speed (vrms) is defined as the square root of the mean of the square of speeds of all molecules

It is given that

Speed of a diatomic hydrogen molecule,2000 m/s

Mol of diatomic hydrogen,1.0

Temperature,50°C

The rms speed of diatomic molecule will be:

√(3KT)/( m)

The translational kinetic energy of a gas molecule is given as:

K.E = (3/2)KT

K.E = (1/2) mv²

where,

v = root mean square velocity

m = mass of one mole of a gas

(3/2)KT = (1/2) mv²

v = √(3KT)/m

FOR H₂: v = √(3KT)/m = 2000 m/s

Here,

mass of 1 mole of oxygen = 16 m

velocity of oxygen = √(3KT)/(16 m)

velocity of oxygen = (1/4) √(3KT)/m

velocity of oxygen = (1/4)(2000 m/s) = 500 m/s

Therefore the rms (root-mean-square) speed of a oxygen molecule at 50∘c is 500m/s.

Calculate the cell potential at 25oC under the following nonstandard conditions: 2MnO4-(aq) + 3Cu(s) + 8H+(aq) ⟶ 2MnO2(s) + 3Cu2

baherus [9]

Answer:

1.346 v

Explanation:

1) Fist of all we need to calculate the standard cell potential, one should look up the reduction potentials for the species envolved:

(oxidation) $Cu_{(s)}$ → $Cu^{2+}_{(aq)} +2e$ E°=0.337 v

(reduction) $MnO_{4 (aq)} + 3e + 4H^{+}_{(aq)}$ → $MnO_{2 (aq)}+2H_{2}O$ E°=1.679 v

(overall) $2MnO_{4 (aq)}+3Cu_{(s)}$ +8H^{+}_{(aq)}→ $3Cu^{2+}_{(aq)}+2MnO_{2 (aq)}+4H_{2}O$ E°=1.342 v

2) Nernst Equation

Knowing the standard potential, one calculates the nonstandard potential using the Nernst Equation:

$E=E^{0} -\frac{RT}{nF}Ln\frac{[red]}{[ox]}$

Where 'R' is the molar gas constant, 'T' is the kelvin temperature, 'n' is the number of electrons involved in the reaction and 'F' is the faraday constant.

The problem gives the [red]=0.66M and [ox]=1.69M, just apply to the Nernst Equation to give

$E=1.342 -\frac{298.15*8.314}{6*96500}Ln\frac{[.66]}{[1.69]}=1.346$
