A three-step mechanism has been suggested for the formation of carbonyl chloride: Step 1: Cl2 → 2 Cl Step 2: Cl + CO → COCl Step

3: COCl + Cl2 → COCl2 + Cl Which species is an intermediate in the mechanism?

Answer:

COCl species is an intermediate in the mechanism.

Explanation:

Intermediates are those chemical species which only appears for a short time in a course of a chemical reaction. They act as product and reactant during the reaction. Also they do not appear in overall chemical reaction.

Step 1: Cl_2\rightarrow 2 Cl

Step 2: Cl + CO\rightarrow COCl

Step 3: COCl + Cl_2\rightarrow COCl_2 + Cl

Overall reaction :

2Cl_2+CO\rightarrow COCl_2+2Cl

As we can see that all the chemicals are present in the overall reaction beside COCl.

COCl species is an intermediate in the mechanism.

What are the forces that hold sodium and chloride ions together?
Phantasy [73]
Sodium is a metal, Chloride is a non-metal.

Right off the bat, you know that in order for both of these atoms to achieve a full valence shell that the metal has to lose electrons, and the non-metal has to gain them.

Therefore, you have the transfer of electrons in this bond in order to form ions.
Na+ and Cl-. This transfer of electrons in a bond is called an {{ Ionic Bond}}

Which statement is true regarding methane and ammonia?
sukhopar [10]
The options for given question are as follow,

1) Methane molecules show hydrogen bonding. 
<span>2) Ammonia molecules show hydrogen bonding. </span>
<span>3) Methane has stronger hydrogen bonding than ammonia. </span>
<span>4) Both the compounds do not show hydrogen bonding. </span>
<span>5) Both the compounds have strong hydrogen bonding.
</span>
Answer:
            Correct answer is Option-2 (Ammonia molecules show hydrogen bonding).

Explanation:
                   Hydrogen bond interactions are formed when a partial positive hydrogen atom attached to most electronegative atom of one molecule interacts with the partial negative most electronegative element of another molecule. So, in Ammonia hydrogen gets partial positive charge as nitrogen is highly electronegative. While the C-H bond in Methane is non-polar and fails to form hydrogen bond interactions.

Consider the heating curve for water. A graph of the heating curve for water has time in minutes on the horizontal axis and Temp
Zolol [24]

Answer:

0°C.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the heating curve of water on the attached document, we can notice that at 0 °C the solid starts melting, which means that the melting point is reached. Melting point is known as a physical change whereby a solid changes to liquid by the addition of heat as it allows the molecules to separate to each other.

Best regards.
