Answer:

The correct statements that you must check are:

  • The oxygen atom has a greater attraction for electrons than the hydrogen atom does (second statement).

  • The electrons of the covalent bond are not shared equally between the hydrogen and oxygen atoms (fourth statement).

Explanation:

Electronegativity is the relative ability of an atom to pull the electrons in a covalent bond.

Hydrogen has an electronegativity of 2.20 and oxygen has 3.44. That means that oxygen attracts the electrons more strongly than hydrogen does (second statement).

As consequence, the electrons in the covalent bond H - O of water are not shared equally (fourth statement): the electron density will  be higher around the O atoms.

Of course, this discards the statement telling that hydrogen atom attracts electrons much more strongly than the oxygen atom, and the statement telling that hydrogen and oxigen have same electronegativity.

Such difference in electron densities creates a dipole moment, so you discard the last statement (that the water dipole moment is equal to zero).

Why might a scientist repeat an experiment if she did not make a mistake in the first one? A) Scientists who repeat experiments
9966 [12]

Answer:

The correct answer is B) it helps to ensure the result are consistent and repeatable.

Explanation:

Scientist generally repeat an experiment if he or she did not make a mistake in the first one to compare the results of two experiment, if there is no difference in the result or values obtainted from the observation of two experiment. he or she become sure that experiment was done in a right way because if there is some error made when experiment was carried out then the result of two same experiment would be different.

Complete and balance the following redox equation using the set of smallest whole– number coefficients. Now sum the coefficients
Elena L [17]

Answer : The balanced chemical equation in a acidic solution is,

BrO_3^-(aq)+6H^+(aq)+3Sb^{3+}(aq)\rightarrow Br^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)+3Sb^{5+}(aq)

The sum of the coefficients is, 17

Explanation :

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

Rules for the balanced chemical equation in acidic solution are :

First we have to write into the two half-reactions.

Now balance the main atoms in the reaction.

Now balance the hydrogen and oxygen atoms on both the sides of the reaction.

If the oxygen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding water molecules at that side where the less number of oxygen are present.

If the hydrogen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding hydrogen ion (H^+) at that side where the less number of hydrogen are present.

Now balance the charge.

The given chemical reaction is,

BrO_3^-(aq)+Sb^{3+}(aq)\rightarrow Br^-(aq)+Sb^{5+}(aq)

The oxidation-reduction half reaction will be :

Oxidation : Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}

Reduction : BrO_3^-\rightarrow Br^-

  • First balance the main element in the reaction.

Oxidation : Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}

Reduction : BrO_3^-\rightarrow Br^-

  • Now balance oxygen atom on both side.

Oxidation : Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}

Reduction : BrO_3^-\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O

  • Now balance hydrogen atom on both side.

Oxidation : Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}

Reduction : BrO_3^-+6H^+\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O

  • Now balance the charge.

Oxidation : Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}+2e^-

Reduction : BrO_3^-+6H^++6e^-\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O

The charges are not balanced. Now multiplying oxidation reaction by 3 and then adding both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.

Oxidation : 3Sb^{3+}\rightarrow 3Sb^{5+}+6e^-

Reduction : BrO_3^-+6H^++6e^-\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O

The balanced chemical equation in acidic medium will be,

BrO_3^-(aq)+6H^+(aq)+3Sb^{3+}(aq)\rightarrow Br^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)+3Sb^{5+}(aq)

The sum of the coefficients = 1 + 6 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 3

The sum of the coefficients = 17

What is the molarity of solution prepared by dissolving 11.75 g of KNO3 in enough water to produce 2.00 L of solution?
zysi [14]
The molar mass of the compound potassium nitrate, KNO3 is equal to 101.1032 g/mol. Then, we determine the number of moles present in the given amount,
                       n = 11.75g / (101.1032 g/mol) = 0.116 mol
Then, molarity is calculated by dividing the number of moles by the volume of the solution. The answer is therefore 0.058 M.
