Given that the radius of the helium-4 nucleus is approximately 2.6 fm, the classical electron radius is 2.8 fm, and the calculat

ed atomic radius of 4He is 31 pm, calculate the percentage of the space in a helium-4 atom that is actually occupied by the particles.

Answer:

0.026%

Explanation:

The Helium-4 is the isotope of the helium that has a mass equal to 4. The element has 2 electrons, so, the total radius of the electrons is 2*2.8 = 5.6 fm = 0.0056 pm.

So, the total radius of the particles is 0.0056 + 0.0026 = 0.0082 pm.

The percentage of the space that the particles occupy is the radius of them divided by the radius of the atom:

% = 0.0082/31 *100%

% = 0.026%

* 1 fentometer (fm) = 0.001 picometer (pm)

Covalent bond name: N6Cl10
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Covalent Bond Name :N6Cl10

Explanation:

  • Covalent compounds are named by using numerical prefixes to identify the number of atoms in the molecule. For example Carbon Dioxide CO2 and Carbon Monoxide CO . ... Drop the double vowel for the prefix and the element of the second element in the compound.

  • The three types as mentioned in the other answers are polar covalent, nonpolar covalent, and coordinate covalent. The first, polar covalent, is formed between two nonmetals that have a difference in electronegativity. They share their electron density unevenly.

  • Examples of Covalent Bond:  Water. An example is water. Water consists of a covalent bond containing hydrogen and oxygen bonding together to make H2O. ...Diamonds. A diamond is an example of Giant Covalent bond of carbon. A diamond has a giant molecular structure. ...Vulcanized rubber. Another example is vulcanized rubber.
  • Covalent bonds are especially important since most carbon molecules interact primarily through covalent bonding. Covalent bonding allows molecules to share electrons with other molecules, creating long chains of compounds and allowing more complexity in life.

yulyashka [42]

Answer: Positive, positive

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from  an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy is said to decrease and vice versa.

\Delta S is positive when randomness increases and \Delta S is negative when randomness decreases.

Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy is released in the form of heat and \Delta H for the reaction comes out to be negative.

Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy is absorbed in the form of heat and \Delta H for the reaction comes out to be positive.

For a cold pack, the energy has to be absorbed for the dissolution of ammonium nitrate in water so that the surroundings feel cold.Thus as energy is absorbed, \Delta H for the reaction comes out to be positive.

The solid form of ammonium nitrate is getting converted to ions and thus entropy increases and thus \Delta S for the reaction comes out to be positive.
