The bonds of four salts (MgBr2, NaCl, MgCl2, and NaBr) are evaluated for ionic character based on electronegativity differences

sammy [17]

Answer:

MgBr2 < MgCl2 < NaBr < NaCl

Explanation:

In order to determinate ionic character, we have to subtract the electronegativity from the elements involved. This is known as Pauling rule.

MgBr2 > ΔΕΝ = 1.8

NaCl > ΔΕΝ = 2.3

MgCl2 > ΔΕΝ = 2

NaBr > ΔΕΝ = 2.1

Combustion of hydrocarbons such as dodecane (C12H26) produces carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse gas." Greenhouse gases in the Earth'

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

A. 2C12H26(l) + 37O2(g) —> 24CO2(g) + 26H2O(g)

B. 761.42 L

Explanation:

A. Step 1:

The equation for the reaction.

C12H26(l) + O2(g) —> CO2(g) + H2O(g)

A. Step 2:

Balancing the equation.

The equation can be balance as follow:

C12H26(l) + O2(g) —> CO2(g) + H2O(g)

There are 12 atoms of C on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 12 in front of CO2 as illustrated below:

C12H26(l) + O2(g) —> 12CO2(g) + H2O(g)

There are 26 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 13 in front of H2O as illustrated below:

C12H26(l) + O2(g) —> 12CO2(g) + 13H2O(g)

Now, there are a total of 37 atoms of O2 on the right side and 2 atoms on the left. It can be balance by putting 37/2 in front of O2 as illustrated below:

C12H26(l) + 37/2O2(g) —> 12CO2(g) + 13H2O(g)

Multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction from the equation.

2C12H26(l) + 37O2(g) —> 24CO2(g) + 26H2O(g)

Now the equation is balanced

B. Step 1:

We'll by obtaining the number of mole of C12H26 in 0.450 kg of C12H26. This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of C12H26 = (12x12) + (26x1) = 144 + 26 = 170g/mol

Mass of C12H26 = 0.450 kg = 0.450x1000 = 450g

Number of mole of C12H26 =?

Number of mole = Mass/Molar Mass

Number of mole of C12H26 = 450/170

Number of mole of C12H26 = 2.65 moles

B. Step 2:

Determination of the number of mole of CO2 produced by the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2C12H26(l) + 37O2(g) —> 24CO2(g) + 26H2O(g)

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of C12H26 produced 24 moles of CO2.

Therefore, 2.65 moles of C12H26 will produce = (2.65x24)/2 = 31.8 moles of CO2.

B. Step 3:

Determination of the volume of CO2 produced by the reaction.

Pressure (P) = 1 atm

Temperature (T) = 19°C = 19°C + 273 = 292K

Gas constant (R) = 0.082atm.L/Kmol

Number of mole (n) = 31.8 moles

Volume (V) =?

The volume of CO2 produced by the reaction can b obtained by applying the ideal gas equation as follow:

PV = nRT

1 x V = 31.8 x 0.082 x 292

V = 761.42 L

Therefore, the volume of CO2 produced is 761.42 L

A hot lump of 30.5 g of iron at an initial temperature of 52.7 °C is placed in 50.0 mL H2O initially at 25.0 °C and allowed to r

slava [35]

Answer:

26.7°C

Explanation:

Using the formula; Q = m × c × ΔT

Where; Q = amount of heat

m = mass

c = specific heat

ΔT = change in temperature

In this question involving iron placed into water, the Qwater = Qiron

For water; m= 50g, c = 4.18 J/g°C, Initial temp= 25°C, final temp=?

For iron; m = 30.5g, c = 0.449J/g°C, Initial temp= 52.7°C, final temp=?

Qwater = -(Qiron)

m × c × ΔT (water) =- {m × c × ΔT (iron)}

50 × 4.18 × (T - 25) = - {30.5 × 0.449 × (T - 52.7)}

209 (T - 25) = - {13.6945 (T - 52.7)}

209T - 5225 = -13.6945T + 721.7

209T + 13.6945T = 5225 + 721.7

222.6945T = 5946.7

T = 5946.7/222.6945

T = 26.7

Hence, the final temperature of water and iron is 26.7°C

What is the expected ionic charge when group VI elements participate in ionic bonds?

valina [46]

Group 6 elements usually have extra electrons to make give them an octet. So, they have 6 electrons to start and when they have an octet, they have 8.

We can find the charge by doing simple math 6 - 8 = -2

Answer is D)
