Say you have a bond A-B.

Even though in this bond each atom shares electrons, one might attract electrons more than another. If one atom, A for instance, attracts those electrons way better than B, then the bond will be polar, and the electronic cloud will be more important around A than around B, which gives chemical properties to the molecule.

What is the mole fraction of NaOH in an aqueous solution that
astraxan [27]

Answer:

The mole fraction of NaOH in an aqueous solution that contain 22.9% NaOH by mass=0.882

Explanation:

We are given that

Aqueous solution that contains 22.9% NaOH by mass means

22.9 g NaOH in 100 g solution.

Mass of NaOH(WB)=22.9 g

Mass of water =100-22.9=77.1

Na=23

O=16

H=1.01

Molar mass of NaOH(MB)=23+16+1.01=40.01

Number of moles =\frac{Given\;mass}{Molar\;mass}

Using the formula

Number of moles of  NaOH(n_B)=\frac{W_B}{M_B}=\frac{22.9}{40.01}

n_B=0.572moles

Molar mass of water=16+2(1.01)=18.02g

Number of moles of water(n_A)=\frac{77.1}{18.02}

n_A=4.279 moles

Now, mole fraction of NaOH

=\frac{n_B}{n_B+n_A}

=\frac{4.279}{0.572+4.279}

=0.882

Hence, the mole fraction of NaOH in an aqueous solution that contain 22.9% NaOH by mass=0.882

Which term names the group of organisms able to interbreed and produce fertile offspring?
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Species

Explanation:

Species is the group of organisms able to interbreed and produce fertile offspring.

Let's break down each word in the question:

"Organisms" means living thing. It can be a plant or animal like we usually think of, but it also includes the really small single-celled living things like some bacteria.

"Interbreed" means to mate with each other.

"Fertile" means that the living thing can also have babies.

"Offspring" means the children that are born.

"Fertile offspring" means that the children that are made must be able to have babies of their own. For example, if a frog and a bird could interbreed, they might produce offspring (children). But, if those frog-birds cannot also have children, then frog-bird is not a species.

What pressure will be exerted by 0.675 moles of a gas at 25*C if it is in a 0.750-L container?
Westkost [7]
PV=nRT

P=nRT/V

P=[(0.650mol)(0.08206)(298K)]/(0.750L)=21.2atm
