It is faster in solids generally because the particles in a solid tend to be closer together than particles in a gas.

Two other factors the speed of sound can depend on is the density of the medium and how elastic the medium is

If 3.289 x 10^23 atoms of potassium react with excess water, how many grams of hydrogen gas would be produced?
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

The amount in grams of hydrogen gas produced is 0.551 grams

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

Number of atoms of potassium, aₙ = 3.289 × 10²³ atoms

Chemical equation for the reaction is given as follows;

2K + 2H₂O \rightarrow KOH + H₂

Avogadro's number, N_A, regarding the number of molecules or atom per mole is given s follows;

N_A = 6.02 × 10²³ atoms/mole

Therefore;

The number of moles of potassium present = 3.289 × 10²³/(6.02 × 10²³) = 0.546 moles

2 moles of potassium produces one mole of hydrogen gas, therefore;

1 moles of potassium produces 1/2 mole of hydrogen gas, and 0.546 moles of potassium will produce 0.546/2 moles of hydrogen which is 0.273 moles of hydrogen gas

The molar mass of hydrogen gas = 2.016 grams

Therefore, 0.273 moles will have a mass of 0.273×2.016 = 0.551 grams.

The amount in grams of hydrogen gas produced = 0.551 grams.

Typically if oxygen has a formal negative charge, it is participating in ____ covalent bond(s). Report your answer as a whole nu
ZanzabumX [31]

Oxygen is participating in non-polar covalent bond(s)

Oxygen forms 2 covalent bond.

This is because oxygen atoms have 6 valence electrons. This means that it has 2 lone pairs and 2 unpaired electrons that are shared in order to achieve octet configuration.

In this chemistry, the 2 lone pairs on the oxygen are not shared with any other atoms. Instead; they are assigned to the oxygen atom. The formal charge on the oxygen atom is zero. Oxygen's atomic number is 8 and is equal to the sum of the number of its valence and inner shell electrons.

<h3>What is non-polar covalent bonding?</h3>

Nonpolar covalent bonding is a kind of covalent bond in which the bonding electrons are shared equally between the two atoms.
