Lists how many valence electrons are shared, gained, or lost by each atom of the 6 compounds?

1 answer:

6 0

The number of electrons in an atom's outermost valence shell governs its bonding behavior.

In N₂, three electrons are being shared by each nitrogen atom, making a total of 6 shared electrons.

In CCl₄, 4 electrons are being shared by each carbon atom and 1 electron is being shared by each chlorine atom

In SiO₂, 4 electrons are being shared by each silicon atom and 2 electrons are being shared by each oxygen atom.

In AlCl₃, 3 electrons are being shared by each aluminum atom and 1 electron is being shared by each Cl atom

In CaCl₂, 2 electrons are lost by the calcium atom and 1 electron is gained by each chlorine atom

In LiBr, 1 electron is lost by the lithium atom and 1 electron is gained by the bromine atom

How much heat must be transferred to 100.0g of water to change its temperature by 35° C?

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

14700J

Explanation:

From the question given, the following were obtained:

M = 100g

ΔT = 35° C

C = 4.2J/g °C

Q=?

The heat transferred can calculated for by using the following equation

Q = MCΔT

Q = 100 x 4.2 x 35

Q= 14700J

The pKa of lactic acid is 3.9. A lactate buffer will be useful from pH values ________. The pKa of lactic acid is 3.9. A lactate

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The usefulness of a buffer is its ability to resist changes in pH when small quantities of base or acid are added to it. This ability is the consequence of having both the conjugate base and the weak acid present in solution which will consume the added base or acid.

This capacity is lost if the ratio of the concentration of conjugate base to the concentration of weak acid differ by an order of magnitude. Since buffers having ratios differing by more will have their pH driven by either the weak acid or its conjugate base .

From the Henderson-Hasselbach equation we have that

pH = pKa + log [A⁻]/[HA]

thus

0.1 ≤ [A⁻]/[HA] ≤ 10

Therefore the log of this range is -1 to 1, and the pH will have a useful range of within +/- 1 the pKa of the buffer.

Now we are equipped to answer our question:

pH range = 3.9 +/- 1 = 2.9 through 4.9

What is the mean free path for the molecules in an ideal gas when the pressure is 100 kPa and the temperature is 300 K given tha

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The mean free path = 2.16*10^-6 m

Explanation:

Given:

Pressure of gas P = 100 kPa

Temperature T = 300 K

collision cross section, σ = 2.0*10^-20 m2

Boltzmann constant, k = 1.38*10^-23 J/K

To determine:

The mean free path, λ

Calculation:

The mean free path is related to the collision cross section by the following equation:

$\lambda =\frac{1}{n\sigma }------(1)$

where n = number density

$n = \frac{P}{kT}-----(2)$

Substituting for P, k and T in equation (2) gives:

$n = \frac{100,000 Pa}{1.38*10^{-23} J/K*300K} =2.42*10^{25}\ m^{3}$

Next, substituting for n and σ in equation (1) gives:

$\lambda =\frac{1}{2.42*10^{25}m^{-3}* .0*10^{-20}m^{2}}=2.1*10^{-6}m$
