Answer:

CO2 consists of individual molecules with one central carbon atom double bonded to two oxygen atoms. Silicon does not form double bonds with oxygen. CO2 is gas but SiO2 is a solid because SiO2 has a giant molecular structure. CO2 has a simple molecular structure, and because of this, CO2 is gas but SiO2 is solid at room temperature.

Answer:

Explanation:

Because of their structure . Silica has a chain structure with e one silicon atom bonded to 4 oxygen atoms in the lattice. The structure is a long chain of tightly held atoms and this forms a solid.

The carbon dioxide molecule however as a linear structure and each oxygen atom is bonded by double bonds. These double bonds are not as strong as the Si - O bonds in silica so will not form a chain structure.

(a) The original value of the reaction quotient, Qc, for the reaction of H2(g) and I2(g) to form HI(g) (before any reactions tak

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Here's what I get

Explanation:

Assume the initial concentrations of H₂ and I₂ are 0.030 and 0.015 mol·L⁻¹, respectively.

We must calculate the initial concentration of HI.

1. We will need a chemical equation with concentrations, so let's gather all the information in one place.

H₂ + I₂ ⇌ 2HI

I/mol·L⁻¹: 0.30 0.15 x

2. Calculate the concentration of HI

$Q_{\text{c}} = \dfrac{\text{[HI]}^{2}} {\text{[H$_{2}$][I$_{2}$]}} =\dfrac{x^{2}}{0.30 \times 0.15} = 5.56\\\\x^{2} = 0.30 \times 0.15 \times 5.56 = 0.250\\x = \sqrt{0.250} = \textbf{0.50 mol/L}\\\text{The initial concentration of HI is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.50 mol/L}}$}$

3. Plot the initial points

The graph below shows the initial concentrations plotted on the vertical axis.
