How do you draw molecular compound structures? Example: C2H2

Chemistry
1 answer:
AVprozaik [17]3 years ago
3 0
It's hard to describe how to draw these compounds. However, I will try my best using the example provided. The example provided would look like this H-C(triple bond)C-H. First it is important to know how many electrons you are working with. In this case there are ten electrons. 8 from carbon and 2 from hydrogen. After you know this, you can draw the structure. Each carbon atom needs an octet or eight atoms surrounding it. Creating a triple bond with the other carbon and a single bond with one hydrogen atom allows for this to happen. It takes practice to master drawing structures but with time it gets easier! I hope this helped!

The main reason that cs2 has a higher boiling point than co2 is that cs2
OlgaM077 [116]

Explanation:

Inspite of having similar intermolecular forces, CS2 has a higher boiling point than CO2, since it has a greater molar mass. The potential energy of molecules reduces until a certain level as they get closer to each other. Although the polarity of both CO2 and CS2 are cancelled because of their linear structure.

How many grams of barium sulfate, BaSO 4 , be precipitated when 2.25 moles of sodium sulfate , Na 2 SO 3 , reacts with an excess
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

525.1 g of BaSO₄ are produced.

Explanation:

The reaction of precipitation is:

Na₂SO₄ (aq) + BaCl₂ (aq) →  BaSO₄ (s) ↓  +  2NaCl (aq)

Ratio is 1:1. So 1 mol of sodium sulfate can make precipitate 1 mol of barium sulfate.

The excersise determines that the excess is the  BaCl₂.

After the reaction goes complete and, at 100 % yield reaction, 2.25 moles of BaSO₄ are produced.

We convert the moles to mass: 2.25 mol . 233.38 g/mol = 525.1 g

The precipitation's equilibrium is:

SO₄⁻² (aq)  +  Ba²⁺ (aq)  ⇄  BaSO₄ (s) ↓       Kps

Is dissolving salt a chemical change or physical change and why?
Firlakuza [10]

It's a physical change because the composition of the salt hasn't change. Only the change in substance/form has occured. To tell if something has undergone physical change is:

• Melting

• Boiling

• Freezing

• Condensing

• Breaking

• Bending

• Dissolving

• Molecules can change motion and proximity

To tell if something changed chemically:

• Molecules rearrange with other molecules to make new substance

• Can be production of flames

• Color change

• Bubbling/fizzing

• Temp. change

• change in composition
