What is the electronegativity of this and how do you get it?

Chemistry
1 answer:
MrMuchimi3 years ago

Answer:

elecreonegativity is the attraction of a bonded atom for the pair of electrons in a covalent bond. this can occur if:

- the nuclear charges are different

- the atoms are different sizes

- the shared pair of electrons are closer to one nucleus than the other

Which of these has the most covalent character? <br> NaF Caf2 Bef2 CsF SrF2
Ksenya-84 [330]

Thus BeF2 is of most covalent character.

Anyways, covalent/ionic character is a bit tricky to figure out; we measure the difference in electronegativity of two elements bonding together and we use the following rule of thumb: if the charge is 0 (or a little more), the bond is non-polar covalent; if the charge is > 0 but < 2.0 (some references say 1.7), the bond is polar covalent; if the charge is > 2.0 then the bond is ionic. Covalent character refers to smaller electronegativity difference while ionic character refers to greater electronegativity difference.


Now, notice all of our bonds are with F, fluorine, which has the highest electronegativity of 3.98. This means that to determine character we need to consider the electronegativities of the other elements -- whichever has the greatest electronegativity has the least difference and most covalent character.
Na, sodium, has electronegativity of 0.93, so our difference is ~3 -- meaning our bond is ionic. Ca, calcium, has 1.00, leaving our difference to again be ~3 and therefore the bond is ionic. Be, beryllium, has 1.57 yielding a difference of ~2.5, meaning we're still dealing with ionic bond. Cs, cesium, has 0.79, meaning our difference is again ~3 and therefore again our compound is of ionic bond. Lastly, we have Sr, strontium, with an electronegativity of 0.95 and therefore again a difference of roughly 3 and an ionic bond. <span>

If a plant produces 8.46 mol C6H12O6, how many moles of H2O are needed?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

50.76 mol H2O.

Explanation:

The photosynthesis follows the equation:

6CO2 + 6H2O ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2

This means that 6 mol of H2O are needed to obtain 1 mol of C6H12O6 (see the numbers that precedes every molecule to know how many mols are in game).

So we can say that:

1 mol C6H12O6 --------- 6 mol H2O

8.46 mol C6H12O6 -----x= 8.46 x 6 : 1 = 50.76 mol H20
