Is H3O+ polar or non polar? (explain please.)?

Chemistry

pishuonlain [190]3 years ago

The overall molecule is Polar because the shape of the molecule is Trigonal Pyramidal, which means it has the lone pair electrons. Becuase of the lone pair the pulling is unequal.   

H3O+ has 3 polar bonds. 
To know if the bonds are polar or nonpolar find the difference of the element's electronegativity charge. 
H has electronegativity charge of 2.2, and O has 3.4.
Always subtract the smaller number from the greater one. 
So 3.4 - 2.2 = 1.2 
If the difference is from 0-0.4 the bond is nonpolar, but if it's from 0.5-1.9 the bond is polar. 
So, 1.2 is polar bond. So H3O+ has 3 polar bonds, and the overall molecule is polar too. 

A simple way to know if it's polar or nonpolar is to draw the lewis dot structure, and use VSEPR.

Why is nucleus of an atom charged is negatively charged?
Damm [24]

Answer:

Charge is caused by a flow of electrons, since electrons are around the nucleus they can be lost or gained by atoms. When an atom gets charged, it gains a charge, that is, it gains an electron. Since electrons are negatively charged, when an atom gains one, it also becomes negatively charged.

Calculate the number of calories needed to increase the temperature of 50.0 g of copper metal from 21.0 degrees C to 75.0 degree
KonstantinChe [14]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

1031.4 Calories.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

Mass of the copper metal = 50.0 g

Initial temperature = 21.0 °C

Final temperature, = 75°C

Change in temperature = 54°C

Specific heat capacity of copper = 0.382 Cal/g°C

We are required to calculate the amount of heat in calories required to raise the temperature of the copper metal;

Quantity of heat is given by the formula,

Q = Mass × specific heat capacity × change in temperature

   = 50.0 g × 0.382 Cal/g°C × 54 °C

   = 1031.4 Calories

Thus, the amount of heat energy required is 1031.4 Calories.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Well according to the Law of Evolution, depending on where the Finch lives and what it eats depends on it's beak size. For example, if a Finch lives on the coast and eats small fruits it will have a short and stubby beak to peck at the fruits, but if the Finch ate crabs it's beak would be long to swoop down and pluck up crabs.

Hope this helps!
