This statement is TRUE.
The polarity of the molecule is caused by unequal sharing of the electrons in the covalent bond. Even though the carbon dioxide molecule is made from two different atoms, two oxygen atoms and one carbon atom, the CO2 molecule is non polar because of the structure of the molecule.
The CO2 has a linear, symmetrical structure. This means that the two oxygen atoms with greater electronegativity are symmetrically placed around the carbon molecule. This arrangement of atoms causes a balance in the sharing of the electrons, making the molecule non polar.
Answer:
A. Gas atoms subjected to electricity emit bright lines of light
Explanation:
When subjected to electricity, the electrons of a gas atom are <em>excited</em>. From that excited energy level, the electrons eventually go back to their initial state; this <u>transition</u> is done by emitting photons at a specific wavelength (causing an emission of bright lines of light).
Such is the mechanism of gas-discharge lamps tipically found in households.
Because they aren’t sustainable and they contribute to global warming, I think.
Answer:
used to determine the concentration of the acidic solution by titrating it
Answer:
- Part a) 0.0104 moles copper(II) nitrate.
i) 0.0418 mole Cu
ii) 0.0209 mol Ag NO₃
Explanation:
<u>1) Balanced chemical reaction (single replacement):</u>
In a single replacement reaction a more acitve metal (Cu) replaces a less active metal (Ag)
- Cu + 2 Ag NO₃ → Cu (NO₃)₂ + 2 Ag
<u>2) Mole ratio: </u>
- 1 mole Cu : 2 mole Ag NO₃ : 2 mole Ag
<u />
<u>3) Moles of Ag</u>
- n = mass in grams / atomic mass
- atomic mass of Ag: 107.868 g/mol
- n = 2.25 g / 107.868 g/mol = 0.0209 mol Ag
<u>4) Moles of copper(II) nitrate:</u>
- Set the proportion using the mole ratio:
- 2 mole Ag / 1 mole Cu (NO₃)₂ = 0.0209 mole Ag / x
- Solve: x = 0.0209 / 2 mole Cu (NO₃)₂ = 0.0104 moles Cu(NO₃)₂
That is the answer of part a: 0.0104 moles copper(II) nitrate.
<u>5) Moles of each reactant</u>
i) Cu:
- Set a proportion using the theoretical mole ratio
1 mole Cu / 2 mole Ag = x / 0.0209 mol Ag
- Solve for x: x = 0.0209 / 2 mole Cu = 0.0418 mole Cu
ii) Ag NO₃
- Set a proportion using the teoretical mole ratio
2 mole Ag NO₃ / 2 mole Ag = x / 0.0209 mole Ag
- Solve for x: x = 0.0209 mol Ag NO₃
