Chemistry Help! Reasons why nonmetals form covalent bonds?

Chemistry

Anton [14]3 years ago

Non metals attain stability when they attain nobility .i. e. Fully filled outer shell. In order to achieve that, they undergo covalent bonding by sharing of electrons. Metals on the other hand have free electrons in their valence bands unlike non metals, they dont preferably require covalent bonding.

1. 100gm of a 55% (M/M) nitric acid solution is to be diluted to 20% (M/M) nitric acid.
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The volume of water to be added is 0.175 liters of water

Explanation:

The given concentration of the nitric acid = 55% (M/M)

The mass of the nitric acid solution = 100 gm

The concentration solution is to diluted to = 20% (M/M)

The 100 g 55%(M/M) nitric acid solution gives 55g nitric acid in 100 g of solution

Therefore, to have 20% (M/M) nitric acid solution with the 55 g nitric acid, we get

Let "x" represent the volume of the resulting solution, we have;

20% of x = 55 g of nitric acid

∴ 20/100 × x = 55 g

x = 55 g × 100/20 =  275 g

The mass of extra water to be added = The mass of the 20%(M/M) solution solution of nitric acid - The current mass of the 55%(M/M) solution of nitric acid

The mass of extra water to be added = 275 g - 100 g = 175 g

Volume = Mass/Density

The density of water ≈ 1 g/ml

∴ The volume of water to be added that gives 175 g of water =  175 g/(1 g/ml) = 175 ml. = 0.175 l

The volume of water to be added = 0.175 liters of water.

Element c has a strong emmission aound 450nm Does this emmission line reprosent a lower of higher emergy line at 627 nm?
Julli [10]

It  respresents the higher energy level than 627nm .

<h3>What is a emission line ? </h3>

Emission lines are the glowing hot gas emits lines of light whereas absorption line  refers to the tendency of  cool atmospheric gas to absorb the same line of light.Some lights produce dark band when the light passes through gas in the atmosphere . There are two line spectrum  and absorption.

 spectrum is an excitement of  electrons from lower to higher energy levels and when it comes back it releases energy in the terms of colourful lights .

It represents the  higher energy levels than 627nm because Energy is inversly proportional to wavelength .
