Answer:

Three (3) of the molecules are polar: $CoS,$ $XeO_{3},$ $SeBr_{2}$ .

Explanation:

Polar substances have their elements held together by a covalent bond that contain partially positive and negative charges, which results in a difference in the charges' electronegativity difference (usually ranging between 0.4 and 0.7).

PCl5 is non-polar with a symmetric geometry
CoS is polar
XeO3 is polar, with a trigonal pyramidal molecular geometric
SeBr2 is polar as the difference their electronegativity is about ).5

The balanced redox reactions for the sequential reduction of vanadium are given below.

Minchanka [31]

Answer : 0.0392 grams of Zn metal would be required to completely reduced the vanadium.

Explanation :

Let us rewrite the given equations again.

$2VO_{2}^{+} (aq)+ 4H^{+}(aq) + Zn (s)\rightarrow 2VO^{2+}(aq)+Zn^{2+}+2H2O(l)$ $2VO^{2+}(aq)+ 4H^{+}(aq) + Zn (s)\rightarrow 2V^{3+} (aq)+Zn^{2+}+2H2O(l)$

$2V^{3+} (aq)+ Zn (s)\rightarrow 2V^{2+}(aq)+Zn^{2+}(aq)$

On adding above equations, we get the following combined equation.

$2VO_{2}^{+} (aq)+ 8H^{+} (aq) + 3Zn (s)\rightarrow 2V^{2+}(aq)+3Zn^{2+}(aq)+4H_{2}O(l)$

We have 12.1 mL of 0.033 M solution of VO₂⁺.

Let us find the moles of VO₂⁺ from this information.

$12.1 mL \times \frac{1L}{1000mL}\times \frac{0.033mol}{L}=0.0003993mol NO_{2}^{+}$

From the combined equation, we can see that the mole ratio of VO₂⁺ to Zn is 2:3.

Let us use this as a conversion factor to find the moles of Zn.

$0.0003993mol NO_{2}^{+}\times \frac{3mol Zn}{2molNO_{2}^{+}}=0.00059895mol Zn$

Let us convert the moles of Zn to grams of Zn using molar mass of Zn.

Molar mass of Zn is 65.38 g/mol.

$0.00059895mol Zn\times \frac{65.38gZn}{1molZn}=0.0392gZn$

We need 0.0392 grams of Zn metal to completely reduce vanadium.

Which statement is true of phenolphthalein?

Anna007 [38]

The correct option is B.

Phenophtalein is an indicator that is usually used in acid base titration experiments. Indicators are substances that undergo distinct, observable changes when the pH of their solutions change. Indicators exhibit changing of colors depending on the pH of the solution in which they are found. They are usually weak bases and acid which are capable of partial dissociation and formation of ions when dissolved in water. There are different types of indicator and phenophtalein is one of them. Phenophtalein is colorless in acidic solution and pink in basic solutions.

The coefficient of performance of a residential heat pump is 1.6. Calculate the heating effect in kJ/s this heat pump will produ

Helen [10]

Answer:

The heating effect of the residential heat pump will be 7.2 KJ/Sec

Explanation:

The rate of heat produced ( $Q_{H}$ )

Here, Coefficient of performance = 1.6

Here, Consume of electrical power =4.5

The rate of heat produced ( $Q_{H}$ ) = Coefficient of performance × Consume of electrical power

∴ $Q_{H}$ = 1.6 × 4.5

= 7.2 KJ/SEC

∴ The heating effect of the residential heat pump will be 7.2 KJ/Sec
