What occurs in order to break the bond in a cl2 molecule? explanation please.

Chemistry

A cl2 molecule is a diatomic molecule composed of two atoms of identical halogen - chlorine. In this case, this molecule is composed of covalent bonds in which the identical atom- molecule tells that this is also non-polar. To break the bond, energy has to be absorbed to break the intermolecular force that bound the molecule together.

Options for the question;

(1) Energy is absorbed.

(2) Energy is released.

(3) The molecule creates energy.

(4) The molecule destroys energy.

Answer:

(1) Energy is absorbed.

Explanation:

Using the Method of elimination;

Option 1 - Energy is absorbed to break bonds. Bond-breaking is an endothermic process. This means this option is correct.

Option 2 - This option is incorrect because bond breaking is endothermic in nature. Energy is being absorbed and not released.

Option 3 and 4 - These optons are wrong because energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can change from one form to another.

Iodine (i2) and bromine (br2) are soluble in mineral oil and slightly soluble in water. why? suggest another solvent, hexane or
Triss [41]

Bromine and Iodine are both totally soluble in mineral oil because these substances are all made up of non-polar molecules. And because water is a polar molecule, Bromine and Iodine is not soluble in it.

Non polar solvents contain bonds that have similar electronegativity, an example of this is carbon and hydrogen such as gasoline. Some other examples are pentane, hexane, benzene and toluene.

A voltaic cell utilizes the following reaction: 4Fe2+(aq)+O2(g)+4H+(aq)→4Fe3+(aq)+2H2O(l). What is the emf of this cell under st
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

0.46 V

Explanation:

The emf for the cell is given by:

Eº cell = Eº oxidation + Eº reduction

From the  given balanced chemical equation, we can deduce that Fe²⁺ has been oxidized to Fe³⁺, and O reduced  from 0 to negative 2, according to the half cell reactions:

4Fe²⁺  ⇒ Fe³⁺ + 4e⁻           oxidation

O₂ + 4H⁺ + 4 e⁻ ⇒ 2 H₂O   reduction

From reference tables for the standard reduction potential, we get

Eº red Fe³⁺ / Fe²⁺   Eºred = 0.77 V  

Eº red O₂ / H₂O      Eºred = 1.23 V

Now all we need to do is change the sign of Eº reduction for the species being oxidized ( Fe²⁺ ) and add it to Eº reduction  O₂:

Eº cell =   Eº oxidation + Eº reduction = - (0.77 V ) + 1.23 V = 0.46 V
