Answer : The covalent compounds are, SiF₄, CO₂, S₇O₂, PCl₃, H₂O  and S₂F₁₀

Explanation :

Covalent compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms forming a compound.

The covalent compound are usually formed when two non-metals react.

Ionic compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed when electron gets transferred from one atom to another atom.

Ionic compound are usually formed when a metal reacts with a non-metal.

KBr

It is an ionic compound because potassium element is a metal and bromine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

SiF₄

It is a covalent compound because sharing of electrons takes place between silicon and fluorine. Both the elements are non-metals and hence, will form covalent bond.

Al₂O₃

It is an ionic compound because aluminum element is a metal and oxygen element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

CO₂

It is a covalent compound because sharing of electrons takes place between carbon and oxygen. Both the elements are non-metals and hence, will form covalent bond.

NaCO₃

It is an ionic compound because sodium element is a metal and carbon element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

S₇O₂

It is a covalent compound because sharing of electrons takes place between sulfur and oxygen. Both the elements are non-metals and hence, will form covalent bond.

PCl₃

It is a covalent compound because sharing of electrons takes place between phosphorus and chlorine. Both the elements are non-metals and hence, will form covalent bond.

Fe₃N₂

It is an ionic compound because iron element is a metal and nitrogen element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

H₂O

It is a covalent compound because sharing of electrons takes place between hydrogen and oxygen. Both the elements are non-metals and hence, will form covalent bond.

S₂F₁₀

It is a covalent compound because sharing of electrons takes place between sulfur and fluorine. Both the elements are non-metals and hence, will form covalent bond.

Hence, the covalent compounds are, SiF₄, CO₂, S₇O₂, PCl₃, H₂O  and S₂F₁₀

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

The solubility of the gaseous solute decreases

Explanation:

As we know, pressure decreases with altitude. This means that, at higher altitudes, the pressure is much lower than it is at sea level.

The solubility of a gas increases with increase in pressure and decreases with decrease in pressure.

Hence, in Denver, Colorado where the elevation is about 5,280 feet above sea level, a gaseous solute is less soluble than it is at sea level due to the lower pressure at such high altitude.

C(S)+O2(g)-->CO2(g)
soldi70 [24.7K]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is 1.18 g.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given a chemical equation:

C(S)+O2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)

We know that at STP conditions:

22.4L of volume is occupied by 1 mole of a gas.

So, 2.21L of carbon dioxide is occupied by = \frac{1}{22.4L}\times 2.21L=0.0986mol of carbon dioxide gas.

By Stoichiometry of the above reaction:

1 mole of carbon dioxide gas is produced by 1 mole of carbon

So, 0.0986 moles of carbon dioxide is produced by = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.0986=0.0986mol of carbon.

Now, to calculate the mass of carbon, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Moles of carbon = 0.0986 mol

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.0986mol=\frac{\text{Mass of carbon}}{12g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of carbon}=1.18g

Hence, the correct answer is 1.18 g.

How many liters of H2O gas are produced when
anyanavicka [17]
1 mole C3H8 produces 4 moles H2O. So, first we convert 32 grams of propane to moles and then find moles of H2O. Then convert moles of H2O to grams of H2O
Moles of H2O produced = 32 g C3H8 x 1 mole/44 g x 4 moles H2O/mole C3H8 = 2.909 moles H2O
Grams H2O produced = 2.909 moles H2O x 18 g/mole = 52.36 g = 52 g H2O
