When a polar molecule causes a charge redistribution in a nonpolar molecule, what are the molecules of the mixture most likely e
White raven [17]

Answer is: dipole-induced dipole interactions.

Intermolecular forces are the forces between molecules or particles.

There are several types of intermolecular forces: hydrogen bonding, ion-induced dipole forces, ion-dipole forces and van der Waals forces.

A dipole-induced dipole interaction is a weak attraction that results when a polar molecule induces a dipole in a nonpolar molecule by disturbing the arrangement of electrons in the nonpolar species.

const2013 [10]

Answer: 4KO_2+2CO_2\rightarrow 2K_2CO_3+3O_2

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The balanced chemical equation for reaction of potassium superoxide  with carbon dioxide to produce oxygen and potassium carbonate will be:

4KO_2+2CO_2\rightarrow 2K_2CO_3+3O_2

You need to produce a buffer solution that has a pH of 5.31. You already have a solution that contains 10. mmol (millimoles) of
Karolina [17]

Answer:

37 mmol of acetate need to add to this solution.

Explanation:

Acetic acid is an weak acid. According to Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for a buffer consist of weak acid (acetic acid) and its conjugate base (acetate)-

pH=pK_{a}(acetic acid)+log[\frac{mmol of CH_{3}COO^{-}}{mmol of CH_{3}COOH }]

Here pH is 5.31, pK_{a} (acetic acid) is 4.74 and number of mmol of acetic acid is 10 mmol.

Plug in all the values in the above equation:

5.31=4.74+log[\frac{mmol of CH_{3}COO^{-}}{10}]

or, mmol of CH_{3}COO^{-} = 37

So 37 mmol of acetate need to add to this solution.

What does a fluorine ion have in common with a neon and a sodium ion
DanielleElmas [232]
The atomic number (Z) of the 3 elements F, Ne, and Na, are 9, 10, and 11.

Explanation:

Now Z refers to the number of protons in the element's nucleus, and protons are POSITIVELY charged particles. So a fluoride ion, F−, has 10 electrons rather than 9 (why?), a neutral neon atom has 10 electrons, and a sodium ion, Na+, also has 10 electrons (why?).

So the 3 species are ISOELECTRONIC; they possess the same number of electrons. 

You should look at the Periodic Table to confirm the electron number. Elements are (usually) electrically neutral (sometimes they can be ionic if they have lost or gained electrons). If there are 10 positively charged protons in the nucleus, there are NECESSARILY 10 electrons associated with the NEUTRAL atom. I don't know WHY I am capitalizing certain WORDS.

You might ask why sodium will form a positive ion, Na+, whereas F forms a negative ion, F−. This again is a Periodic phenomenon, and explicable on the basis of the electronic structure that the Table formalizes.

Neutral metals tend to be electron-rich species, which have 1 or more electrons in a valence shell remote from the nuclear charge. On the other hand, neutral non-metals have valence electrons in incomplete shells, that do not effectively shield the nuclear charge. The demonstrable consequence is that metals lose electrons to form positive ions, whereas non-metals gain electrons to form negative ions.
