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).

Calculate the percent activity of the radioactive isotope strontium-89 remaining after 5 half-lives.
maria [59]
The answer to this question would be: 3.125%

Half-life is the time needed for a radioactive molecule to decay half of its mass. In this case, the strontium-89 is already gone past 5 half lives. Then, the percentage of the mass left after 5 half-lives should be:
100%*(1/2^5)= 100%/32=3..125%

How many atoms are in the formula (NH4)2CO3? Please help and provide explanation!
nevsk [136]

Answer:

28

Explanation:

28 is correct. (NH4)2 is equal to 10 atoms. (8 H and 2 N ) CO3 is equal to 4 atoms. (1 C and 3 O) That's 14 atoms. But it's two molecules of this. So you just multiply by the number of molecules (2), and you get 28.
