Answer: Chlorine has the strongest attraction for electrons in bond formation.

Explanation:

Chlorine is highly electronegative as compared to iodine and has high electron gain enthalpy. So, it will readily accept an electron in order to complete its octet. The electronegativity decreases down the group from Cl to I, and hence the tendency to gain an electron decreases.

In case of Barium, and Strontium there are completely filled sub shells and therefore the tendency to gain an electron is the least.  

Thus, it can be concluded that chlorine has the strongest attraction for electrons in bond formation.

What is the charge on an ion that contains 16 protons and 18 electrons?
Alika [10]
16-18= -2 so it has a negative charge. Just subtract the electrons from the protons if you get a positive number it will have a positive charge and vice versa.

sp2606 [1]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

While ethanol is produced naturally by fermentation, e.g. in beer- and wine-making, industrially it is synthesized by reacting ethylene with water vapor at elevated temperatures.

A chemical engineer studying this reaction fills a 1.5 L flask at 12°C with 1.8 atm of ethylene gas and 4.7 atm of water vapor. When the mixture has come to equilibrium she determines that it contains 1.16 atm of ethylene gas and 4.06 atm of water vapor.

The engineer then adds another 1.2 atm of ethylene, and allows the mixture to come to equilibrium again. Calculate the pressure of ethanol after equilibrium is reached the second time. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

<u>Answer:</u> The partial pressure of ethanol after equilibrium is reached the second time is 1.0 atm

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Initial partial pressure of ethylene gas = 1.8 atm

Initial partial pressure of water vapor = 4.7 atm

Equilibrium partial pressure of ethylene gas = 1.16 atm

Equilibrium partial pressure of water vapor = 4.06 atm

The chemical equation for the reaction of ethylene gas and water vapor follows:

                     CH_2CH_2(g)+H_2O(g)\rightleftharpoons CH_3CH_2OH(g)

<u>Initial:</u>                  1.8                4.7

<u>At eqllm:</u>           1.8-x             4.7-x

Evaluating the value of 'x'

\Rightarrow (1.8-x)=1.16\\\\x=0.64

The expression of K_p for above equation follows:

K_p=\frac{p_{CH_3CH_2OH}}{p_{CH_2CH_2}\times p_{H_2O}}

p_{CH_2CH_2}=1.16atm\\p_{H_2O}=4.06atm\\p_{CH_3CH_2OH}=0.64atm

Putting values in above expression, we get:

K_p=\frac{0.64}{1.16\times 4.06}\\\\K_p=0.136

When more ethylene is added, the equilibrium gets re-established.

Partial pressure of ethylene added = 1.2 atm

                     CH_2CH_2(g)+H_2O(g)\rightleftharpoons CH_3CH_2OH(g)

<u>Initial:</u>                2.36             4.06               0.64

<u>At eqllm:</u>           2.36-x        4.06-x             0.64+x

Putting value in the equilibrium constant expression, we get:

0.136=\frac{(0.64+x)}{(2.36-x)\times (4.06-x)}\\\\x=0.363,13.41

Neglecting the value of x = 13.41 because equilibrium partial pressure of ethylene and water vapor will become negative, which is not possible.

So, equilibrium partial pressure of ethanol = (0.64 + x) = (0.64 + 0.363) = 1.003 atm

Hence, the partial pressure of ethanol after equilibrium is reached the second time is 1.0 atm

16. What is a pure substance formed when two or more different elementscombine called?A. compoundB. moleculeC. element
Lana71 [14]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Compound. Option A is correct

<h2>Explanations:</h2>

When two or more different elements combines, a compound is formed. For instance, if carbon and oxygen combines, carbondioxide is formed according to the equation;

C+O_2\rightarrow CO_2

From the reaction, carbon and oxygen are the elements while carbondioxide is the compound. Hence we can conclude that a pure substance formed when two or more different elements combine called compound.

A 25.0-mL sample of 0.150 M butanoic acid is titrated with a 0.150 M NaOH solution. What is the pH before any base is added? The
hoa [83]
HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻ 
so:
\frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]} = 1.5 x 10^{-5}
and now:
\frac{(x)(x)}{(0.150-x)} = 1.5 x 10⁻⁵
x is considered very small compared to 0.15
x² = 2.25 x 10⁻⁶
x = 1.5 x 10⁻³
So [H⁺] = 1.5 x 10⁻³
pH = - log [H⁺] = - log (1.5 x 10⁻³) = 2.83
