Hydrogen chloride or most commonly known as hydrochloric acid and
muriatic acid is a diatomic compound that consists of hydrogen and chlorine. It
is prepared industrially by the combustion of hydrogen, H2, in chlorine, Cl2.
H2 + Cl2 -> 2HCl. There are also many metallic chlorides that release
hydrogen chloride gas, HCl, when warmed with concentrated sulfuric acid, H2SO4.
Mostly, it is prepared by heating it with sulfuric acid and sodium chloride.
The reaction is NaCl + H2SO4 -> HCl + NaHSO4. Adding sulfuric acid enables the reaction to proceed further and it acts as a catalyst in the reaction.
Alpha particles have a charge of +2 and a mass of 4
Gamma rays have a charge of 0 and a mass of 0
Neutrons have a charge of 0 and a mass of 1
Beta positrons have a charge of +1 and a mass of 0
Answer:
-a nonmetal is a substance that lacks the characteristics of a metal.
-Seventeen elements are generally classified as nonmetals: most are gases (hydrogen, helium, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, neon, chlorine, argon, krypton, xenon and radon); one is a liquid (bromine); and a few are solids (carbon, phosphorus, sulfur, selenium, and iodine).
Answer:
CH3CH2CH3
Explanation:
Dipole moment is the measure of the polarity of a chemical bond. It is the extent of charge separation in a molecule.
Dipole moment is the product of the magnitude of charge and the distance separating the charges from each other.
The molecule having the lowest dipole moment among the options is the molecule that has the least polarity. The least polar molecule among the options is CH3CH2CH3, it has no polar bonds in its structure.
