<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option B.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A covalent bond is formed when sharing of electrons takes place between the atoms combining. The atom which attracts the shared pair of electron towards itself is more electronegative and the atom which does not attracts the shared pair of electron towards itself is less electronegative.

In HCl molecule, more electronegative atom is chlorine atom having an electronegativity of 3.16 and hydrogen has an electronegativity of 2.1

So, majority of shared electrons will be found near to the chlorine atom in hydrochloric molecule.

Hence, the correct answer is Option B.

Which anthropogenic pollutants are implicated in the formation of most acidic precipitation? 1. carbon oxides 2. ozone and carbo
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

nitrogen oxides and sulphur oxides

Explanation:

Factors responsible for antropogenic pollution are:

  • burning of fossil fuels
  • deforestation
  • mining
  • sewage
  • industrial effluent
  • pesticides, fertilizers, etc.  

The primary air pollutants released from burning of fossil fuels are oxides of nitrogen, sulfur oxides and carbon monoxide.

Out of which the main pollutants that are responsible for acidic precipitation are oxides of nitrogen and sulfur oxides.

Sulfur oxides and Oxides of nitrogen reacts with moisture present in the air to form sulfuric acid and nitric acid respectively.

These acids get mixed with rain and cause acidic precipitation.

Therefore, the correct option is oxides of nitrogen and sulfur oxides.

Please answer this question ASAP. This is on a homework assignment that is due tonight!! Thank you in advance! A voltaic cell em

Ecell = E°cell - RT/vF * lnQ

R is the gas constant: 8.3145 J/Kmol
T is the temperature in kelvin: 273.15K = 0°C, 25°C = 298.15K
v is the amount of electrons, which in your example seems to be six (I'm not totally sure)
F is the Faradays constant: 96485 J/Vmol (not sure about the mol)
Q is the concentration of products divided by the concentration of reactants, in which we ignore pure solids and liquids: [Mg2+]³ / [Fe3+]²

Standard conditions is 1 mol, at 298.15K and 1 atm

To find E°cell, you have to look up the reduction potensials of Fe3+ and Mg2+, and solve like this:

E°cell = cathode - anode

Cathode is where the reduction happens, so that would be the element that recieves electrons. Anode is where the oxidation happens, so that would be the element that donates electrons. In your example Fe3+ recieves electrons, and should be considered as cathode in the equation above. 

When you have found E°cell, you can just solve with the numbers I gave you.

Changing subscripts is one of the steps of balancing a chemical equation.<br> True or False
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Changing the coefficients is one of the steps of balancing a chemical equation. Changing the subscript changes the compounds being used, while changing the coefficient changes the amount of each compound being used.
