What do scientists Need to know about a compound in order to Classify it

Chemistry

OleMash [197]3 years ago
6 0
Compounds are classified according to the elements that make them up. For example, oxides contain one or more oxygen atoms, hydrides contain one or more hydrogen atoms.
compounds form different types of bonds too. a metal and nonmetal element will create an ionic bond, two nonmetal elements create covalent bonds

How does H2So4 break up to h+ & hso4 - ?
Katena32 [7]
H2So4 is a strong acid and a strong electrolyte which means that when this dissociates in water, the dissociation process is complete. The first dissociation is 

H2 SO4 = H + HSO4- 

This can further release H+ and dissociate SO4- instead already

The reaction P4 +502P4010 + 712 kcal is
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

The reaction is exothermic (option 4)

Explanation:

P4 + 5O2 → P4O10 + 712 kcal

In chemical reactions heat can be absorbed or released:

⇒in the first case, when heat is absorbed, this is called an endothermic reaction. The products have more energy than the reactants. The reaction requires or absorbs energy from it's surroundings.  That means  that in this reaction energy , in the form of heat, will be absorbed by the reactants.

⇒ when heat is released, this is called an exothermic reaction. The reactants have more energy than the products. The reaction gives or releases energy to it's surroundings.  That means  that in this reaction energy , in the form of heat, will be released by the reactants.

in the case of P4 + 5O2 → P4O10 + 712 kcal

We notice that on the right side, which is the product side, there is a positive amount of energy. This means that the energy is released by the the reactants, in this reaction. <u>The reaction is exothermic.</u>

A tall pea plant (Tt) is crossbred with another tall pea plant (Tt). The following Punnett square shows the separated alleles fo
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

when you use punnett squares, you cross the different genes with themselves. if T is in the first box on both sides, the genome will be TT. if the box lines up to tt, it will be tt. the boxes on the left use the genes' first letter and the boxes on the right use the second letter.

What causes the difference in bond angles in carbon dioxide and water?
egoroff_w [7]

Answer is: C) the fact that the number of lone pairs of electrons on the central atom is greater in the case of water.

Carbon(IV) oxide is nonpolar because CO₂ is linear molecule and the oxygen atoms are symmetrical (bond angles 180°).

Water is polar because of the bent shape of the molecule.

Oxygen atom in water molecule has sp3 hybridization. The bond angle between the two hydrogen atoms is approximately 104.45°.

Oxygen atom has atomic number 8, it means it has eight protons and eight electrons, so atom has neutral charge. Oxygen is a nonmetal.

Electron configuration of oxygen atom: ₈O 1s² 2s² 2p⁴.

Oxygen atom has six valence electrons , two lone pairs and two electrons that form two sigma bonds with hydrogen atoms.

Carbon is a chemical element with symbol C and atomic number 6, which means it has 6 protons and six electrons. Four valence electrons are in 2s and 2p orbitals.  

Electron configuration of carbon atom: ₆C 1s² 2s² 2p².  

In carbon dioxide, carban has sp hybridization with no lone pairs.
