7 0

Answer:

Find the molar mass of all the elements in the compound in grams per mole.

Find the molecular mass of the entire compound.

Divide the component's molar mass by the entire molecular mass.

You will now have a number between 0 and 1. Multiply it by 100% to get percent composition.

Indicate the direction of polarity of each of the following covalent bonds. Please just write a + or - not the bonds.
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

1. C+ ---- O-

2. O+ ---- Cl-

3. O+ ----- F-

4. C+ ----- N-

5. Cl- ----- C+

6. S- ----- H+

7. S+ ----- Cl -

Explanation:

Electronegativity determines the polarity . There may be two atoms in a bond with high electronegativity, in such cases the positive charge is given to atom with comparatively lower electronegativity. Electronegativity determines the easiness with which an atom attract electrons in a chemical bond. A polar bond is formed when the difference in the electronegativity of two combining atoms is between 0.4 and 1.7. The correct direction is

1. C+ ---- O-

2. O+ ---- Cl-

3. O+ ----- F-

4. C+ ----- N-

5. Cl- ----- C+

6. S- ----- H+

7. S+ ----- Cl -

How many molecules are there in 840 grams of na2SO4
beks73 [17]

Answer:

3.56x10^24 molecules

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass of Na2SO4 = 840g

Molar Mass of Na2SO4 = (23 x2) + 32 + (16x4) =46 + 12 + 64 = 142g/mol

From Avogadro's hypothesis, 1mole of any substance contains 6.02x10^23 molecules. This also gives that 1mole of Na2SO4 contains 6.02x10^23 molecules.

If 1 mole (i.e 142g) contains 6.02x10^23 molecules,

Therefore, 840g of Na2SO4 will contain = (840 x 6.02x10^23)/142 = 3.56x10^24 molecules

Which example is not a structural adaptation of a plant? A. curling around a tree trunk B. protecting itself with thick bark C.
aalyn [17]

A. curling around a tree trunk

I believe would be the correct answer because it is not an adaptation that it has gained through evolution and it is something that happens after the plant has grown.
