Is P2I4 or Diphosphorus tetraiodide covalent or ionic?

Chemistry

Afina-wow [57]3 years ago

Answer: covalent bond.

Explanation:

A covalent bond is formed when an element shares its valence electron with another element. This bond is formed between two non metals.

An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element. This bond is formed between a metal and an non-metal.

As P_2I_4 or Diphosphorus tetraiodide is made up of phosphorous and iodine which are both non metals , it is a covalent bond.

.266 mol CO plus .524 Mol H2 gives how many moles of CH3OH
Readme [11.4K]

Explanation:

Carbon monoxide and hydrogen gas reacts together to form methanol:

CO + 2H2 => CH3OH

Since 0.266mol * 2 = 0.532mol > 0.524mol, the limiting reactant here is hydrogen and therefore there will be 0.524mol / 2 = 0.262mol of methanol.

Does acid rain make new substances? Construct an argument that uses data from this investigation as evidence for your claim.
Yuri [45]

Answer:

Acid rain, like all acids, generates dissolution of chemical compounds, and reacts together with bases to be able to carry out oxide reduction reactions, which by deduction is very likely to form new substances as a result of the dissolution or acid erosion caused.

Explanation:

Acid rain is more likely to occur in large cities or large sources of pollution, since the excess of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere causes it to increase its partial pressure in a condensed way in the clouds, this is how then this cloud when being loaded with water and then generating the rain drags these masses of condensed carbon dioxide in the form of acid rain.

The degree of acidity is directly proportional to the amount of partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
