When acids react with water, H ions are released which then combine with water molecules to form H₃O⁺
Answer: (3) The difference in electronegativity between carbon and oxygen is greater than that between fluorine and oxygen.
Explanation: Polarity of a molecule is due to the difference in electronegativity of the atoms. More is the electronegativity difference, more is the polarity.
Electronegativity of carbon = 2.5
Electronegativity of oxygen = 3.5
Electronegativity of fluorine = 4.0
Thus the difference in electronegativity of carbon and oxygen is=(3.5-2.5)= 1.0
Thus the difference in electronegativity of fluorine and oxygen is=(4.0-3.5)= 0.5.
Thus C-O bond is more polar than F-O bond.
Answer:
5.5 atm
Explanation:
Step 1: Calculate the moles in 2.0 L of oxygen at STP
At STP, 1 mole of an ideal gas occupies 22.4 L.
2.0 L × 1 mol/22.4 L = 0.089 mol
Step 2: Calculate the moles in 8.0 L of nitrogen at STP
At STP, 1 mole of an ideal gas occupies 22.4 L.
8.0 L × 1 mol/22.4 L = 0.36 mol
Step 3: Calculate the total number of moles of the mixture
n = 0.089 mol + 0.36 mol = 0.45 mol
Step 4: Calculate the pressure exerted by the mixture
We will use the ideal gas equation.
P × V = n × R × T
P = n × R × T / V
P = 0.45 mol × (0.0821 atm.L/mol.K) × 298 K / 2.0 L = 5.5 atm

2. Hydrogen forms bonds through the overlap of 1s atomic orbitals and the sharing of electrons between atoms. Carbon forms bonds through the overlapping of sp hybrid atomic orbitals and the sharing of electrons between carbon atoms.
Explanation:
The H-H bond is formed by the overlap of two 1s orbitals and the sharing of electrons between the two atoms.
A carbon atom must use the overlap of hybridized atomic orbitals and the sharing of electrons to bond with another carbon atoms.
1. is <em>wrong</em> because H can use only its <em>1s orbital</em> for bonding.
3. is <em>wrong</em> because C must <em>share electrons</em> to form a carbon-carbon bond.
4. is <em>wrong</em> because <em>C does NOT use overlapping of 2s orbitals</em> for bonding. It uses the overlap of hybridized orbitals.
5. is <em>wrong</em> because H must <em>share electrons</em> to form an H-H bond.
