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

Chemistry

<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.

A sample of a compound contains ​0.300 mol​ ​of carbon​ and ​1.20 mol​ ​of hydrogen​. What is the ​empirical formula of the comp
Margarita [4]

Answer:

CH4

Explanation:

The number of moles of carbon and hydrogen has been given as follows:

C = ​0.300 mol​ ​

H = ​1.20 mol

Next, we divide each mole value by the smallest (0.300)

C = 0.300 ÷ 0.300 = 1

H = 1.20 ÷ 0.300 = 4

The empirical ratio of Carbon and Hydrogen is 1:4, hence, the empirical formula is CH4

Answer:

a mixture of molecules - Box f

atoms of a pure elementa metal - Box D

a solid compound - Box C

a mixture of elements - Box A

Explanation:

Box a has mixture of elements which forms a solid like shape but there are different elements present in the box. The box f has mixture of molecules in which many atoms are combined together. Box c has solid compound with single element.

What is an Atomic structure ?
Margaret [11]

Answer: The structure of an atom, theoretically consisting of a positively charged nucleus surrounded and neutralized by negatively charged electrons revolving in orbits at varying distances from the nucleus, the constitution of the nucleus and the arrangement of the electrons differing with various chemical elements.
