Which of the following pairs of elements is most likely to form an ionic bond?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mrrafil [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer is: D. sodium and sulfur.

When the electronegativity difference is greater, the bond polarity is increasing..  

Electronegativity (χ) is a property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons.  

Atoms with higher electronegativity attracts more electrons towards it, electrons are closer to that atom.  

Δχ(Na-S) = 2.6 - 0.95 = 1.655; electronegativity difference between sodium and sulfur.

Ionic bond is the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions (cations and anions).

Sodium is metal (forms cation) and sulfur is nonmetal (forms anion).

Which is true about reaction rates?
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

the correct choice would be: 4. Reaction rates are not related to spontaneity.

Explanation:

The speed of reaction is independent of spontaneity, since it depends on other factors such as the amount of reagent.

The amount of reagent is one of the variables that most influences the speed of reaction, the greater the amount of reagent, the faster the reaction will be and thus the speed will be increased.

If 20 grams of zinc reacts with hydrochloric acid, how much zinc chloride is produced?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
Assuming there is excess acid, the equation for the reaction is Zn + 2HCl -> ZnCl2 + H2.
Mols of zinc = 20/65 (mass/relative atomic mass)
Ratio of Zn : ZnCl2 = 1 : 1
Hence mols of Zinc = mols of Zinc chloride
Mass of ZnCl2 = (20/65)(65+71)
= 41.8g
