Answer:

Only BF₃ is non polar.

Explanation:

The non polar molecule is one which will have zero dipole moment.

This zero dipole moment is possble if

a) the bonds are non polar (completely) and there is no lone electrons

b) the bonds are polar but the overall dipole moment cancel each other due to planar geometry of molecule

i) BF₃ : This is trigonal planar molecule. The overall dipole moment is zero due to symmetric distribution of electrons and thus dipole cancel each other.

ii) NF₃ : there is lone pair of electron and the bonds are polar.

iii) PBr₃: Again presence of lone pair of electrons and thus ssymmetric distribution of electrons

iv) BrCl₃ : The bonds are polar and molecule is not planar.

v) IF₃ : bonds are polar.

In the formula for the compound XCl4, the X could represent<br> (1) C (3) Mg<br> (2) Η (4) Zn
Anvisha [2.4K]
Correct Answer: option 1 i.e. C

Reason: 
The the compound of interest i.e.  XCl4, since there are 4 Cl atoms bonded to X. This signifies that the valency of X is 4.

There atomic number of C is 6. It's electronic configuration is giving by 1s2 2s2 2p2. Thus, there are 4 electrons in valence shell of C. This signifies that valency of C is 4. Hence the compound present in present case is CCl4.

why does ocean water found near the poles often have a higher leaves of salinity than ocean water found near the equator
zaharov [31]

Answer:

Water near the poles often have higher salinity because Cold polar air cools the water and lowers its temperature, increasing its salinity. Fresh water freezes out of seawater to become sea ice, which also increases the salinity of the remaining water.

Why would the white blood cells have an abundance of lysosomes?
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Explanation:

A. White blood cells have many lysosomes because they need to produce a lot of glucose and oxygen.

Lysosomes are found in all animal cells, but are most numerous in disease-fighting cells, such as white blood cells. This is because white blood cells must digest more material than most other types of cells in their quest to battle bacteria, viruses, and other foreign intruders.

A certain half-reaction has a standard reduction potential -1.33V . An engineer proposes using this half-reaction at the anode o
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

a. -0.63 V

b. No

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Standard reduction potential of the anode (E°red): -1.33 V
  • Minimum standard cell potential (E°cell): 0.70 V

Step 2: Calculate the required standard reduction potential of the cathode

The galvanic cell must provide at least 0.70V of electrical power, that is:

E°cell > 0.70 V    [1]

We can calculate the standard reduction potential of the cathode (E°cat) using the following expression.

E°cell = E°cat - E°an   [2]

If we combine [1] and [2], we get,

E°cat - E°an > 0.70 V

E°cat > 0.70 V + E°an

E°cat > 0.70 V + (-1.33 V)

E°cat > -0.63 V

The minimum E°cat is -0.63 V and there is no maximum E°cat.

Consider a galvanic cell in which Al 3 + Al3+ is reduced to elemental aluminum and magnesium metal is oxidized to Mg 2 + Mg2+ .
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Anode:

3Mg(s) ----------> 3Mg2+(aq) + 6e

Cathode:

2Al3+(aq) +6e ---------> 2Al(s)

Explanation:

Anode:

3Mg(s) ----------> 3Mg2+(aq) + 6e

Cathode:

2Al3+(aq) +6e ---------> 2Al(s)

Magnesium is more electro positive than aluminum hence it functions as the anode. Six electrons are lost/gained in the redox process as shown in the oxidation and reduction half reaction equations above. Magnesium is oxidized to magnesium ion while aluminum is reduced to elemental aluminum.
