Answer:

(iv) (A) is false, but (R) is true.

Explanation:

It is not true that carbon has a strong tendency to either lose or gain electrons to attain noble gas configuration. Carbon is a member of group 14, it is the first member of the group and carbon is purely a non metal. Only metals metals can loose electrons to attain the noble gas configuration. Moreover, carbon does not participate in ionic bonding so it does not gain electrons to attain the noble gas configuration.

However, carbon participates in covalent bonding where it is covalently bonded to four other chemical species using its four outermost electrons. Carbon forms covalent bonds in which four electrons are shared with other chemical species.

Give the name of the products formed

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

With Br2 - Bromobenzene

With Cl2 - Chlorobenzene

With HNO3- Nitrobenzene

With H2SO4 - Benzenesulphonic acid

With HCOCl - Benzoyl chloride

With 1-chloro-2,2-dimethylpropane - 2,2dimethyl-1-phenyl propane

Explanation:

The common thread joining all these reactions is that they are all electrophillic reactions. They are so called because the attacking agents in each reagent is an electrophile. Electrophiles are species that have electron deficient centers and are known to attack molecules that are high in electron density at regions of high electron density.

The benzene molecule has rich electron density. Any substituents that donates electrons to the ring improves the likelihood that benzene will undergo electrophillic substitution reactions while electron withdrawing substituents decrease the likelihood that benzene will undergo electrophillic substitution reactions.

The names of the compounds formed when benzene undergoes electrophillic reaction with the attacking agents listed in the question are displayed in the answer section.

Describe the ammonium ion, NH4+, and the sulfate ion, SO42-. What compounds would these ions form with potassium and fluoride io

frozen [14]

Cations mix with anions, so you know NH4+ won't mix with K+ and SO4(2-) won't miix with F-. For the reason that NH4+ and F- together have single charges, they'll mix in a 1:1 ratio, NH4F. There's two charges on SO4(2-), so it'll need two K+ to mix with, K2SO4.

Noah and Nina are 15 m apart in a closed room. Noah says the same sentence twice. The first time, Nina does not hear the sound,

In-s [12.5K]

The air molecules in the compressions of the second wave are denser, so the sound is louder.

<h3>What is a sound wave?</h3>

Sound waves are longitudinal waves that travel through a medium like air or water.

In a closed room, Noah and Nina are sitting 15 m apart.

As Noah says the same sentence twice, Nina does not hear the sound the first time but she does hear the sentence the second time.

This happens as the air molecules in the compressions of the second wave are denser. As a result, the sound is louder.

The correct option is ''The air molecules in the compressions of the second wave are denser, so the sound is louder''.

Net ionic of ammonium sulfide added to iron (ll) chloride

meriva

Answer:

Fe²⁺(aq) + S²⁻(aq )⟶ FeS(s)

Step-by-step explanation:

Molecular Equation:

(NH₄)₂S(aq) + FeCl₂(aq) ⟶ 2NH₄Cl(aq) + FeS(s)

Ionic equation :

2NH₄⁺(aq) + S²⁻(aq) + Fe²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq) ⟶ 2NH₄⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq) + FeS(s)

Net ionic equation :

Cancel all ions that appear on both sides of the reaction arrow (underlined).

2NH₄⁺(aq) + S²⁻(aq) + Fe²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq) ⟶ 2NH₄⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq) + FeS(s)

Fe²⁺(aq) + S²⁻(aq )⟶ FeS(s)
