The building block of silicate minerals is called silicon - oxygen tetrahedron (this is the option A)<span>. This silicate ion is Si O4 (4-); it consists of one atom of Si, located in the center of a tetrahedron and surrounded by 4 atoms of O, located in the vertices of the tetrahedron. Given that the SiO4 (4-) ions have a negative charge of 4, they will bond to four metallic cations, each with 1 positive charge.</span>

Identify the dominant intermolecular attraction in bh3.
k0ka [10]
The molecule BH3 is trigonal planar, with B in the center and H in the three vertices. Ther are no free electrons. All the valence electrons are paired in and forming bonds.

There are four kind of intermolecular attractions: ionic, hydrogen bonds, polar and dispersion forces.

B and H have very similar electronegativities, Boron's electronegativity is 2.0 and Hydrogen's electronegativity is 2.0.

The basis of ionic compounds are ions and the basis of polar compounds are dipoles.

The very similar electronegativities means that B and H will not form either ions or dipoles. So, that discards the possibility of finding ionic or polar interactions.

 Regarding, hydrogen bonds, that only happens when hydrogen bonds to O, N or F atoms. This is not the case, so you are sure that there are not hydrogen bonds.

When this is the case, the only intermolecular force is dispersion interaction, which present in all molecules.

Then, the answer is dispersion interaction.

What is AgNO3 + KCI-KNO3+AgCI. What type of reaction does this represent
PIT_PIT [208]
<span>C4H10 + 6.5 O2 ----> 4CO2 + 5H2O 

2C4H10 + 13 O2 ----> 8CO2 + 10H2O 

1. Count the C on the left (4), put a 4 where the C on the right. 

2. Count the H on the left (1), you have two on the right, so you multimply this two by 5. Put the 5 in front of the H2O 

3. Count the O on the right. You have 4*2 + 5 = 13. You have two on the left, so you need 6.5 on the left. 

4. Now multiply everything on the equation by two so you have nice integer numbers. 

5. check you have the same amount of everything on each side. 
Example C: left 8, right 8, etc.
I hope this helps. :)</span><span>

Phosphine (PH3) can be prepared by the reaction of calcium phosphide , Ca3P2: based on this equation : Ca3P2 + 6H2O —-&gt; 3 Ca(
MrMuchimi

Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, you can observe that:

  • one mole of Ca₃P₂ produces 2 mol of PH₃.
  • the mole ratio between phosphine and calcium phosphide is 2 mol PH₃ over 1 mol Ca₃P₂.

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

Ca₃P₂ + 6 H₂O  → 3 Ca(OH)₂ + 2 PH₃

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • Ca₃P₂:1 mole
  • H₂O: 6 moles
  • Ca(OH)₂: 3 moles
  • PH₃: 2 moles

The molar mass of the compounds is:

  • Ca₃P₂: 182 g/mole
  • H₂O: 18 g/mole
  • Ca(OH)₂: 74 g/mole
  • PH₃: 34 g/mole

Then, by reaction stoichiometry, the following mass quantities of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • Ca₃P₂: 1 mole ×182 g/mole= 182 grams
  • H₂O: 6 moles× 18 g/mole= 108 grams
  • Ca(OH)₂: 3 moles ×74 g/mole= 222 grams
  • PH₃: 2 moles ×34 g/mole= 68 grams

<h3>Correct statements</h3>

Then, by reaction stoichiometry, you can observe that:

  • one mole of Ca₃P₂ produces 2 mol of PH₃.
  • the mole ratio between phosphine and calcium phosphide is 2 mol PH₃ over 1 mol Ca₃P₂.

HELPPPPP ME <br><br>PLISSSSS ​
Talja [164]

Answer:

pH value of a solution depends on the concentration of hydrogen ions

(pH = -log[H+(aq)].

Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid, while ethanoic acid is a weak acid. Strong acids ionize completely in water (to give ions which includes H+(aq)), while weak acids only ionize partially in water.  

Therefore, even if both hydrochloric acid and ethanoic acid are monobasic acids (each molecule can ionize completely to give 1 hydrogen ion), since hydrochloric acid ionizes completely in water and ethanoic acid does not ionize completely, the concentration of hydrogen ions in hydrochloric acid is higher than that of ethanoic acid, leading to a lower pH value for hydrochloric acid, while higher for ethanoic acid.
