Answer: 1. C. polar covalent: electrons shared between silicon and sulfur but attracted more to the sulfur
2. B)
3. B) Fluorine
Explanation:
1. A polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is a difference of electronegativities between the atoms.
Electronegativity difference = electronegativity of sulphur- electronegativity of silicon = 2.5 -1.8 = 0.7
Thus as electronegativity difference is less than 1.7 , the cond is polar covalent and as electronegativity of sulphur is more , the electrons will be more towards sulphur.
2. A molecular compound is usually composed of two or more nonmetal elements. Example:
Ionic compound is formed by the transfer of electrons from metals to non metals. Example: , and
3. For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.
Here K is having an oxidation state of +1 and as the compound formed is KZ, the oxidation state of non metallic element Z should be -1. Thus the element Z is flourine which exists as diatomic gas
Q: What is the change of entropy for 3.0 kg of water when the 3.0 kg of water is changed to ice at 0 °C? (Lf = 3.34 x 105 J/kg)
Answer:
-3670.33 J/K
Explanation:
Entropy: This can be defined as the degree of randomness or disorderliness of a substance. The S.I unit of Entropy is J/K.
Mathematically, change of Entropy can be expressed as,
ΔS = ΔH/T ....................................... Equation 1
Where ΔS = Change of entropy, ΔH = heat change, T = temperature.
ΔH = -(Lf×m).................................... Equation 2
Note: ΔH is negative because heat is lost.
Where Lf = latent heat of ice = 3.34×10⁵ J/kg, m = 3.0 kg, m = mass of water = 3.0 kg
Substitute into equation
ΔH = -(3.34×10⁵×3.0)
ΔH = - 1002000 J.
But T = 0 °C = (0+273) K = 273 K.
Substitute into equation 1
ΔS = -1002000/273
ΔS = -3670.33 J/K
Note: The negative value of ΔS shows that the entropy of water decreases when it is changed to ice at 0 °C
