Identify the electronegative element in each of the molecules:

1 answer:

6 0

Electronegativity means how strongly an atom can attract electrons. The more positive charge an atom has, the better it attracts the negatively charged electrons. However, distance is a factor too, so if the nucleus (where the protons are) starts becoming too large, the strength of the positive charge isn't as large as it would otherwise be.

Basically this means that fluorine is the most electronegative element since it has the most positive charge for its relative size. Elements closer to fluorine have higher electronegativities than elements further from it on the periodic table.

so in other words F is most electro, bc it attracts more electrons to its atom making other atoms Positive

. Citric acid, which can be obtained from lemon juice, has the molecular formula C6H8O7. A 0.250-g sample of citric acid dissolv

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

3 acidic hydrogens per molecule of citric acid

Explanation:

In a sample of 37.2 mL(0.0372 L) of 0.105 mol/L of NaOH, will have:

n = 0.105x0.0372 = 0.0039 mol of NaOH

The dissociation of NaOH will give the same number of moles of Na⁺ and OH⁻.

The molar mass of citric acid is:

C: 12g/mol x 6 = 72 g/mol

H: 1g/mol x 8 = 8g/mol

O: 16 g/mol x 7 = 112 g/mol

192 g/mol

So, 0.250g of the acid has

n = mass/molar mass

n = 0.250/192

n = 0.0013 mol.

To be neutralized, it will be necessary 0.0039 mol of acidic hydrogens to react with the 0.0039 mol of OH⁻.

The dissociation reaction of one molecule of the acid will give the stoichiometry:

1 mol of acid ----------------------- x mol of acidic hydrogens

0.0013 mol --------------------------- 0.0039

For a simple direct three rule:

0.0013x = 0.0039

x = 3 acidic hydrogens per molecule of citric acid.

A 52 gram sample of an unknown metal requires 714 Joules of energy to heat it from

ratelena [41]

Answer: Approximately $0.267 \frac{\text{J}}{\text{g}^{\circ}\text{C}}$

===================================================

Work Shown:

We have the following variables

Q = 714 joules = heat required
m = 52 grams = mass
c = specific heat = unknown
$\Delta t$ = 82-30.5 = 51.5 = change in temperature

note: the symbol $\Delta$ is the uppercase Greek letter delta. It represents the difference or change in a value.

Apply those values into the formula below. Solve for c.

$Q = m*c*\Delta t\\\\714 = 52*c*51.5\\\\714 = 52*51.5*c\\\\714 = 2678*c\\\\2678*c = 714\\\\c = \frac{714}{2678}\\\\c \approx 0.26661687826737\\\\c \approx 0.267\\\\$
