Answer:

Explanation:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. It is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion. Both atoms are bonded together electrostatic attraction occur between anion and cations.

Sodium atom have one valance electron by losing this one valance electron sodium atom get the complete octet. Chlorine atom has seven valance electrons and needed to lose seven valance electrons or to get one electron and thus complete the octet. It is very easy for chlorine atom to get one electrons instead of losing all seven electron. Thus when it react with sodium it gain the valance electron of sodium and form ionic compound.

That's why only one atom of  sodium combine with one atom chlorine.

A sample of methane gas, CH4, occupies 3.25 L at temperature of 19.0 o C. If the pressure is held constant, what will be the tem
Artemon [7]

Answer:

625.46 °C

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting 19 °C to Kelvin temperature. This can be obtained as follow:

T(K) = T(°C) + 273

T(°C) = 19 °C

T(K) = 19 °C + 273

T(K) = 292 K

Next, we shall determine the Final temperature. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial volume (V₁) = 3.25 L

Initial temperature (T₁) = 292 K

Final volume (V₂) = 10 L

Final temperature (T₂) =?

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

3.25 / 292 = 10 / T₂

Cross multiply

3.25 × T₂ = 292 × 10

3.25 × T₂ = 2920

Divide both side by 3.25

T₂ = 2920 / 3.25

T₂ = 898.46 K

Finally, we shall convert 898.46 K to celsius temperature. This can be obtained as follow:

T(°C) = T(K) – 273

T(K) = 898.46 K

T(°C) = 898.46 – 273

T(°C) = 625.46 °C

Therefore the final temperature of the gas is 625.46 °C

What is Δn for the following equation in relating Kc to Kp?2 SO2(g) + O2(g) ↔ 2 SO3(g)23-2-11
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

-1

Explanation:

The relation between Kp and Kc is given below:

K_p= K_c\times (RT)^{\Delta n}

Where,  

Kp is the pressure equilibrium constant

Kc is the molar equilibrium constant

R is gas constant

T is the temperature in Kelvins

Δn = (No. of moles of gaseous products)-(No. of moles of gaseous reactants)

For the first equilibrium reaction:

2SO_2_{(g)}+O_2_{(g)}\rightleftharpoons2SO_3_{(g)}

<u>Δn = (2)-(2+1) = -1  </u>

Thus, Kp is:

K_p=  K_c\times (RT)^{-1}
