Answer: Option "Has polar bonds and is a non-polar molecule" is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A covalent compound is defined as the compound in which there will be sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

An ionic compound is defined as the compound in which there will be transfer of electrons from one atom to another.

  • A non-polar covalent compound is defined as the compound in which there will be equal sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

For example, a chlorine atom has 7 valence electrons.

So, when a chlorine atom chemically combines with another chlorine atom then there occurs equal sharing of electrons.

Hence, molecule Cl_{2} is formed which is non-polar covalent compound in nature with non-polar covalent bond.

  • A polar covalent bond is defined as the bond in which there will be unequal sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

For example, a carbon atom has 4 valence electrons and an oxygen atom has 6 valence electrons.

To complete their octet a carbon atom needs 4 more electrons and an oxygen atom needs 2 more electrons.

And, when one carbon and two oxygen atoms chemically combine together then there occurs unequal sharing of electrons.

Hence, a polar covalent compound CO_{2} is formed.

Since, oxygen is more electronegative than carbon atom. Hence, dipoles in the linear carbon dioxide molecules will cancel out each other.

Therefore, a carbon dioxide molecule is non-polar compound that has polar covalent bonds.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement, has polar bonds and is a non-polar molecule, correctly describes carbon dioxide.

Hrxn = Q reaction / mol of reaction
mol of reaction = M * V = 10 * 1 = 10 mmol = 0.01 mol
Q water = m * C * (Tf - Ti)
             = (10 + 10) (4.184) (26-20) = 502.08 J
Q reaction = - Q water = -502.08 J
Hrxn = -502.08 / (0.01) = - 50208 J = - 50.21 kJ/mol

The electron configuration of bromine is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p5 classify electrons in each.
bulgar [2K]

Bromine has the following electron configuration: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p5. categorize the electrons in each. Answer for video: The video player is loaded.

On the periodic chart, row 5, column 7, is where you can find a chemical element that was identified in 1811. It has a proton count of 53 and an atomic mass of 126.9. Iodine's atom, then, contains 53 electrons in the following configuration: 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3d10, 4p6, 5s2, 4d10, 5p5 (Kr 4d10 5s2 5p5). Cu Z = 29 has an electrical arrangement of 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s1. Copper (Co) has the following electron configuration: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s3 3p6 4s2 3d7. If a chemist were to refer to Copper by its subshell, they would abbreviate this notation to "3d7."

a sample of helium occupies a volume of 101.2 mL at a pressure of 790 mmHg. at what pressure would the volume be 120 mL?
AveGali [126]

Answer : The final pressure will be, 666.2 mmHg

Explanation :

Boyle's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

or,

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1 = initial pressure = 790 mmHg

P_2 = final pressure = ?

V_1 = initial volume = 101.2 mL

V_2 = final volume = 120 mL

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

790mmHg\times 101.2mL=P_2\times 120mL

P_2=666.2mmHg

Therefore, the final pressure will be, 666.2 mmHg
