As a result of the transfer of an electron from a less electronegative atom to a more electronegative atom,

Chemistry
1 answer:
Viktor [21]2 years ago
4 0

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option d.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an element to attract the shared pair of electron towards itself in a compound.

When electron is transferred from less electronegative atom to more electronegative atom.

The atom which is more electronegative gains electron and undergoes reduction reaction.

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which an atom gains electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets reduced during this reaction.

X^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow X

During the transfer of electrons, energy is released when an electron looses is potential energy during the transfer.

Hence, the correct answer is Option d.

What is a mole?
leva [86]
It's hard to relate a mole to carbon or sulfur. Imagine if I walked up to you and said, "What's the relation between a dozen and donuts?"

A mole is a form of measurement for atoms, more specifically, 6.02 * 10^23 atoms. I suppose you could relate it to Carbon or Sulfur, since the number of atoms of each are usually measured in moles.

Carbon and Sulfur don't have a set number of moles (Just like donuts don't have to be a dozen), so it's hard to answer your second question.
In the atomic table, the number you see under the element is the molar mass, which is the weight of an a mole of the element. In this way, I guess there's a mole of Carbon and Sulfur present, if we're looking at the periodic table.
