Determine the mass of oxygen in a 5.8 g sample of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3).

Chemistry

Answer is: the mass of oxygen is 3.31 grams.

m(NaHCO₃) = 5.8; mass of sodium bicarbonate.

n(NaHCO₃) = m(NaHCO₃) ÷ M(NaHCO₃).

n(NaHCO₃) = 5.8 g ÷ 84 g/mol.

n(NaHCO₃) = 0.07 mol; amount of sodium bicarbonate.

In one molecule of sodium bicarbonate there are three oxygen atoms:

n(NaHCO₃) : n(O) = 1 : 3.

n(O) = 3 · 0.07 mol.

n(O) = 0.21 mol.

m(O) = 0.21 mol · 16 g/mol.

m(O) = 3.31 g.

Which form of bonding has unequal sharing of electrons between two elements?
Vlad1618 [11]

Hello!

Your answer would be polar covalent.

Covalent bonds are where two atoms come together, and share electrons between each other, and are therefore, bonded.

In some cases of molecules that are bonded with a covalent bond, one of the atoms is more, you could call it selfish, and takes more of the electrons. A prime example of this is H20, or water. One of the atoms takes the electrons for longer, and therefore has a more negative charge because electrons are counted as negative charges.

This bond where an atom "hogs" electrons, is called a polar covalent bond, respective to the changing charges for the atoms.

So your answer is d.

Hope this helped!
