Why boron trifluoride is nonpolar and sulphur dioxide is polar

1 answer:

6 0

it small because that bond is not very polar notice that all of those arrows they cancel. because they point in opposite directions. that's why BH 3 is nonpolar if we were to draw the Lewis structure of bf3. ... so even though the boron fluorine bond is polar the molecule as a whole is nonpolar.

In a mixture of 2 ideal gases, A and B, PA = 0.2PB, what is the mole fraction of A?

Alborosie

Answer:

0.1667

Explanation:

Hello,

Dalton's law defines:

$y_i=\frac{P_i}{P_T}$

A total pressure is:

$P_T=P_A+P_B$

So, for A (solving for $P_A$ in the previous equation, we get:

$y_A=\frac{P_A}{P_A+P_B}$

Since $P_A=0.2P_B$ , we obtain:

$y_A=\frac{P_A}{P_A+P_A/0.2}\\y_A=\frac{1}{6}\\y_A=0.1667$ }

Best regards.

What mass of water (in grams) is produced by the reaction of 23.0 g of SiO2?

nikitadnepr [17]

The mass of water produced by the reaction of the 23 g of $SiO_2$ is 13.8 g.

The given chemical reaction;

$4Hf (g) \ + \ SiO_2 (s) \ --> \ SiF_4(g) \ + \ 2H_2O(l)$

In the given compound above, we can deduce the following;

molecular mass of $SiO_2$ = 28 + (2 x 16) = 60 g
molecular mass of $2H_2O$ = 2(18) = 36 g

60 g of $SiO_2$ --------- 36 g of water

23 g of $SiO_2$ ------------- ? of water

$mass \ of \ water = \frac{23 \times 36}{60} = 13.8 \ g \ of \ water$

Thus, the mass of water produced by the reaction of the 23 g of $SiO_2$ is 13.8 g.

Write and balance the equation for the combination of ammonia gas with solid copper (II) oxide to produce copper metal, nitrogen

Katena32 [7]

Explanation :

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

$3CuO(s)+2NH_3(g)\rightarrow 3Cu(s)+N_2(g)+3H_2O(l)$

By the stiochiometry, 3 moles of solid copper(II)oxide react with 2 moles of ammonia gas to give 3 moles of copper metal, 1 mole of nitrogen gas and 3 moles of liquid water.

The states of matter of each elements and compound is,

Copper(II)oxide is in solid state

Ammonia is in gaseous state

Copper metal is in solid state

Nitrogen is in gaseous state

Water is in liquid state
