<span>A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.</span>

Ni-cad (nickel–cadmium) batteries have a slightly lower cell potential than the common alkaline value of 1.5 v normally used in
Lorico [155]
The half-reaction are:

Cd ---> Cd(OH)₂
The oxidation number of Cd changed from 0 to +2. So, the number of mol electron transferred here is 2.

NiO(OH) --> Ni(OH)₂
The oxidation number of Cd changed from +3 to +2. So, the number of mol electron transferred here is 1.

Now, the greatest common factor would be 2. So, we use n=2 for the formula for ΔG°. F is Faraday's constant equal to 96,485 J/mol e.

ΔG° = nFE° = (2)(96,485)(1.5) =<em> 289,455 J</em>

A student listed the characteristics of chemical and nuclear reactions.
lidiya [134]

Answer:

D. It is a chemical reaction because the total mass remains the same when new substances are formed.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction is represented by a chemical equation which show the reactant and products. Reactants are written on left side of arrow while products are written on right side. The number of atoms are remain same however arrangement of atoms is different on both side.

For example:

6H₂O + 6CO₂ + energy  →   C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

it is known from balanced chemical equation that 6 moles of carbon dioxide react with the six moles of water and created one mole of glucose and six mole of oxygen. The number of atoms are same on both side however arrangement of atoms is different.

While in case of nuclear reaction small change in mass take place.

The combustion of 135 mg of a hydrocarbon produces 440 mg of CO2 and 135 mg H2O. The molar mass of the hydrocarbon is 270 g/mol.
NeX [460]

Answer:

Molecular formula = C20H30

Explanation:

NB 440mg = 0.44g, 135mg= 0.135g

From the question, moles of CO2= 0.44/44= 0.01mol

Since 1 mol of CO2 contains 1mol of C, it implies mol of C = 0.01

Also from the question, moles of H2O = 0.135/18= 0.0075mole

Since 1 mol of H2O contains 2mol of H, it implies mol of H = 0.0075×2= 0.015 mol of H

To get the empirical formula, divide by smallest number of mole

Mol of C = 0.01/0.01=1

Mol of H = 0.015/0.01= 1.5

Multiply both by 2 to obtain a whole number

Mol of C =1×2 = 2

Mol of H= 1.5×2 = 3

Empirical formula= C2H3

[C2H3] not = 270

[ (2×12) + 3]n = 270

27n = 270

n=10

Molecular formula= [C2H3]10= C20H30
