Answer:

Explanation:

A solid is characterized by structural rigidity and resistance to a force applied to the surface. Unlike a liquid, a solid object does not flow to take on the shape of its container, nor does it expand to fill the entire available volume like a gas. Solids molecules stay close to eachother maintaining its shape meaning it is in a ordered pattern.

Determine the basic oxidation<br>number for elements in s and p<br>orbitals

Andrews [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

The oxidation state, sometimes referred to as oxidation number, describes the degree of oxidation (loss of electrons) of an atom in a chemical compound. Conceptually, the oxidation state, which may be positive, negative or zero, is the hypothetical charge that an atom would have if all bonds to atoms of different elements were 100% ionic, with no covalent component. This is never exactly true for real bonds.

The term oxidation was first used by Antoine Lavoisier to signify reaction of a substance with oxygen. Much later, it was realized that the substance, upon being oxidized, loses electrons, and the meaning was extended to include other reactions in which electrons are lost, regardless of whether oxygen was involved.

Consider the reaction of magnesium metal with hydrochloric acid to produce magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas. If 3.29 mol of m

gregori [183]

Answer:

1.645 moles of excess reactant that is of magnesium metal are left over.

Explanation:

Moles of magnesium metal = 3.29 mol

Moles of HCl = 3.29 mol

$Mg(s)+2HCl(aq)\rightarrow MgCl_2(aq)+H_2(g)$

According to recation, 2 moles of HCl reacts with 1 mol of magnesium metal, then 3.29 moles of HCl will react with :

$\frac{1}{2}\times 3.29 mol=1.645 mol$ of magnesium metal

Moles of HCl left = 3.29mol - 3.29 mol = 0

Moles of magnesium metal left = 3.29 mol - 1.645 mol = 1.645 mol

1.645 moles of excess reactant that is of magnesium metal are left over.

Do atoms lend and borrow electrons from inner shells

zaharov [31]

False. They don't borrow electrons at all. They already have their respective electron affinities. This is called as electronegativity, and it's an occurence where it already has its own from its actual structure. It never borrows any electrons at all.

Calculate the theoretical carbonaceous and nitrogenous oxygen demand for:

serg [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is 129 mg and 232 mg.

Explanation:

Theoretical carbonaceous oxygen demand:

The reaction will be,

C₂H₆O₂ + 5/2 O₂ ⇒ 2CO₂ + 3H₂O

Thus, for one mole of C₂H₆O₂ (ethylene glycol), 2.5 moles of O₂ is needed.

The molecular mass of ethylene glycol is 62 grams per mole.

The given mass of ethylene glycol is 100 mg or 0.1 grams

The moles of ethylene glycol will be,

Moles = Weight/Molecular mass

= 0.1/62 = 1.613 × 10⁻³ mol

For 1.613 × 10⁻³ mol, the moles of O₂ will be,

= 2.5×1.613×10⁻³

= 4.0.×10⁻³ × 32mol

= 0.129 grams or 129 mg.

The theoretical nitrogenous oxygen demand is:

The reaction will be,

2NH₃-N + 9/2O₂ ⇒ 4HNO2 + H₂O

Thus, for 2 moles of NH₃-N, 4.5 moles of O₂ is needed,

Therefore, for 1 mol of NH₃-N, the oxygen required will be,

= 4.5/2 = 2.25 mol

The given mass of NH₃-N is 100 mg, the moles of NH₃-N will be,

Moles = 100×10⁻³/31 = 3.225 × 10⁻³ mol (The molecular mass of NH₃-N is 31 gram per mole)

The moles of O₂ is 2.25 × 3.225 × 10⁻³ = 7.258 × 10⁻³ mol.

Now the mass of O2 will be,

= 7.258 × 10⁻³ × 32

= 0.232 grams

= 232 mg
