When a chemical reaction destroys a solid

Calculate %ic of the interatomic bonds for the intermetallic compound al6mn. on the basis of this result, what type of interatom

pashok25 [27]

Answer : % ionic character is 0.20%

Bonding between the two metals will be purely metallic.

Explanation: For the calculation of % ionic character, we use the formula

$\% \text{ ionic character}= [1-e^{\frac{-(X_A-X_B)^2)}{4}}]\times(100\%)$

where $X_A$ & $X_B$ are the Pauling's electronegativities.

The table attached has the values of electronegativities, by taking the values of Al and Mn from there,

$X_{Al}=1.61$

$X_{Mn}=1.55$

Putting the values in the electronegativity formula, we get

$\% \text{ ionic character}= [1-e^{\frac{-(1.61-1.55)^2)}{4}}]\times(100\%)$

= 0.20%

Now, there are 3 types of inter atomic bonding

1) Ionic Bonding: It refers to the chemical bond in which there is complete transfer of valence electrons between atoms

2) Covalent Bonding: It refers to the chemical bond involving the sharing of electron pairs between 2 atoms.

3) Metallic Bonding: It refers to the chemical bond in which there is an electrostatic force between the positively charged metal ions and delocalised electrons.

In $Al_6Mn$ compound, the % ionic character is minimal that is $\sim$ 0.20% and there are two metal ions present, therefore this compound will have metallic bonding.

A mixture of gases contains 4.46 moles of neon (Ne), 0.74 mole of argon (Ar), and 2.15 moles of xenon (Xe). Calculate the partia

viva [34]

Explanation:

The partial pressure of an individual gas is equal to the total pressure of the mixture multiplied by the mole fraction of the gas.

Total pressure = 2atm

Mole Fraction = number of moles / total number of moles

Neon

Mole Fraction = 4.46 / 7.35 = 0.607

Partial Pressure = 0.607 * 2 = 1.214 atm

Argon

Mole Fraction = 0.74 / 7.35 = 0.101

Partial Pressure = 0.101 * 2 = 0.202 atm

Xenon

Mole Fraction = 2.15 / 7.35 = 0.293

Partial Pressure = 0.293 * 2 = 0.586 atm

Classify each amino acid according to whether its side chain is predominantly protonated or deprotonated at a pHpH of 7.40.7.40.

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer: His and Lys are deprotonated but Asp will be protonated.

Explanation:

As the pH is given as 7.4 and pK of His is given as 6.00. There will occur a positive charge on His when it's pH < pK therefore, it is neutral at the given pH.

As the pK value of Lys is 10.53 that is greater than the pH of 7.40. Therefore, charge on Lys is positive.

As the pK value of Asp is 3.65 which is less than the pH value of 7.40. Hence, Asp has a negative charge.

Therefore, we can conclude that His and Lys are deprotonated but Asp will be protonated.
