How many grams of carbon are present in 45.0 g of CCl4?

Chemistry

5 0
To determine the amount of a certain element in a compound, we use the ratio of the elements from the compound. We calculate is follows:

45.0 g CCl4 ( 1 mol CCl4 / 153.82 g CCl4 ) ( 1 mol C / 1 mol CCl4 ) ( 12.01 g C / 1 mol C ) = 3.5135 g carbon present

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

How could you safely determine if a base is stronger than an acid? Compare the taste of the base and the acid. Use a conductivit
Gnoma [55]
Use blue litmus paper. This is an indicator that can safely determine whether it is a base or an acid by changing color in response to the substance. This color indicates whether it is an acid or a base. Refer to the pH scale to see if the substance is basic or acidic.

What is 67,890,000 in scientific notation?
Ulleksa [173]
I believe it's 6789 times 10^4. I could be wrong, due to the fact that I don't remember what's the definition of the scientific notion. I hope this helps, or at least gives you an idea! :D

An element with an electronegativity of 0.9 bonds with an element with an electronegativity of 3.1.. Which phase best describes
eduard
Electronegativity is the strength an atom has to attract a bonding pair of electrons to itself. When a chlorine atom covalently bonds to another chlorine atom, the shared electron pair is shared equally. The electron density that comprises the covalent bond is located halfway between the two atoms.

But what happens when the two atoms involved in a bond aren’t the same? The two positively charged nuclei have different attractive forces; they “pull” on the electron pair to different degrees. The end result is that the electron pair is shifted toward one atom.

ATTRACTING ELECTRONS: ELECTRONEGATIVITIES

The larger the value of the electronegativity, the greater the atom’s strength to attract a bonding pair of electrons. The following figure shows the electronegativity values of the various elements below each element symbol on the periodic table. With a few exceptions, the electronegativities increase, from left to right, in a period, and decrease, from top to bottom, in a family.

Electronegativities give information about what will happen to the bonding pair of electrons when two atoms bond. A bond in which the electron pair is equally shared is called a nonpolar covalent bond. You have a nonpolar covalent bond anytime the two atoms involved in the bond are the same or anytime the difference in the electronegativities of the atoms involved in the bond is very small.



Now consider hydrogen chloride (HCl). Hydrogen has an electronegativity of 2.1, and chlorine has an electronegativity of 3.0. The electron pair that is bonding HCl together shifts toward the chlorine atom because it has a larger electronegativity value.

A bond in which the electron pair is shifted toward one atom is called a polar covalent bond. The atom that more strongly attracts the bonding electron pair is slightly more negative, while the other atom is slightly more positive. The larger the difference in the electronegativities, the more negative and positive the atoms become.

Now look at a case in which the two atoms have extremely different electronegativities — sodium chloride (NaCl). Sodium chloride is ionically bonded. An electron has transferred from sodium to chlorine. Sodium has an electronegativity of 1.0, and chlorine has an electronegativity of 3.0.

That’s an electronegativity difference of 2.0 (3.0 – 1.0), making the bond between the two atoms very, very polar. In fact, the electronegativity difference provides another way of predicting the kind of bond that will form between two elements, as indicated in the following table.
