Explanation:

A polar covalent bond is formed due to unequal sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

For example, HCl is a polar covalent compound.

This is because of the difference in electronegativities of both hydrogen and chlorine, partial opposite charges tend to develop on the hydrogen and chlorine atoms.

Whereas CHCl_{3} is a non-polar compound and when HCl is added to it then HCl being polar in nature is unable to dissolve.

On the other hand, water is a polar compound and when HCl is dissolved in it then it will dissociate into hydrogen and chlorine ions.

As electricity is the flow of ions or electrons. Therefore, HCl in water is able to conduct electricity because it dissociates into ions.

Therefore, we can conclude that HCl in water exists as H^{+} and Cl^{-} ions. And, HCl in CHCl_{3} exists as HCl.

Hydrochloric acid (HCl) dissociate on positive ions or cations of hydogen (H⁺) and negative ions or anions of chlorine (Cl⁻). When there is free cations and ions, water solution can conduct electricity. Chloroform do not dissociate on ions in water, because that is not polar molecule, so chloroform is in molecular form in solution.

The molar mass of h2o is 18.01 g/mom . The molar mass of o2 is 32.00 g/moo .what mass of h2o on grams must react to produce 50.0
Julli [10]
Oxygen can be obtained from water using electrolysis process as follows:
2 H2O .............> 2H2 + O2

It is given that: 
molar mass of water = 10.01 grams and molar mass of O2 = 32 grams

From the balanced chemical equation, we can conclude that:
2 moles of water produce 1 mole of oxygen
2 x 18.01 = 36.02 grams of water produce 32 grams of oxygen.

To calculate how many grams of water must react to produce 50 grams of oxygen, we can use cross multiplication as follows:
mass of required water = 56.28125 grams

In an experiment, a 0.5297 g sample of diphenylacetylene (C14H10) is burned completely in a bomb calorimeter. The calorimeter is
V125BC [204]

Answer:

the Molar heat of  Combustion  of  diphenylacetylene (C_{14}H_{10})  = -6.931 *10^3 \ kJ/mol

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of diphenylacetylene (C_{14}H_{10}) = 0.5297 g

Molar Mass of diphenylacetylene (C_{14}H_{10}) = 178.21 g/mol

Then number of moles of diphenylacetylene (C_{14}H_{10})  = \frac{mass}{molar \ mass}

= \frac{0.5297  \ g }{178.24 \  g/mol}

= 0.002972 mol

By applying the law of calorimeter;

Heat liberated by 0.002972 mole of diphenylacetylene (C_{14}H_{10})  = Heat absorbed by H_2O + Heat absorbed  by the calorimeter

Heat liberated  by 0.002972 mole of diphenylacetylene (C_{14}H_{10})  =  msΔT + cΔT

= 1369 g  × 4.184 J g⁻¹°C⁻¹ × (26.05 - 22.95)°C + 916.9 J/°C (26.05 - 22.95)°C

= 17756.48 J + 2842.39 J

= 20598.87 J

Heat liberated by 0.002972 mole of diphenylacetylene (C_{14}H_{10})  = 20598.87 J

Heat liberated by 1 mole of  diphenylacetylene (C_{14}H_{10}) will be = \frac{20598.87 \ J}{0.002972 \ mol}

= 6930979.139 J/mol

= 6930.98 kJ/mol

Since heat is liberated ; Then, the Molar heat of  Combustion  of  diphenylacetylene (C_{14}H_{10})  = -6.931 *10^3 \ kJ/mol

You need to prepare a solution with a specific concentration of Na+Na+ ions; however, someone used the end of the stock solution
babymother [125]

Explanation:

Ionic equation

NaCl(aq) --> Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq)

Na2SO4(aq) --> 2Na+(aq) + SO4^2-(aq)

In NaCl solution, 1 mole of Na+ is dissociated in 1 liter of solution while in Na2SO4, 2 moles of Na+ is dissociated in 1 liter of solution.

Molecular weight of NA2SO4 = (23*2) + 32 + (16*4)

= 142 g/mol

Molecular weight of NaCl = 23 + 35.5

= 58.5 g/mol

Masses

% Mass of NA+ in Na2SO4 = mass of Na+/total mass of Na2SO4 * 100

= 46/142 * 100

= 32.4%

% Mass of NA+ in NaCl = mass of Na+/total mass of NaCl * 100

= 23/58.5 * 100

= 39.3%

Therefore, the % mass of Na+ in NaCl and Na2SO4 are different so it cannot be used.
