Answer:

Divers breathe compressed air that contains nitrogen. At higher pressure under water, the nitrogen gas goes into the body's tissues. ... Nitrogen narcosis: Deep dives can cause so much nitrogen to build up in the brain that you can become confused and act as though you've been drinking alcohol.Oxygen becomes rapidly toxic at depth – prolonged exposure to pure oxygen below a few metres can kill you. It is not an appropriate scuba tank gas mixture. ... Oxygen is also highly reactive and can make other substances flammable. Safety training is necessary to work with pure oxygen.

Explanation:

I hope this helped,i m sorry if its not the exact answer you need.

torisob [31]

Pieces of copper, silver and gold are dropped into a solution of iron sulphate. The piece that will get a coating of copper is. ... Therefore, none of the three metals can displace iron from its salt solution. Hence, we observe that no reaction takes place and none of the pieces get coated.

____ [38]

Answer:

  • <em>Oxidation half-reaction</em>:

Fe²⁺(aq) →  Fe³⁺(aq) + 1e⁻

  • <em>Reduction half-reaction</em>:

Ce⁴⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ →  Ce³⁺(aq)

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

  • Fe²⁺(aq) + Ce⁴⁺(aq) → Fe³⁺(aq) + Ce³⁺(aq)

The <em>oxidation half-reaction</em> is:

  • Fe²⁺(aq) →  Fe³⁺(aq) + 1e⁻

It is an oxidation because the oxidation state of Fe increases from 2+ to 3+.

The <em>reduction half-reaction</em> is:

  • Ce⁴⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ →  Ce³⁺(aq)

It is a reduction because the oxidation state of Ce decreases from 4+ to 3+.

How can you determine which bond in a structure is more polar without using an electronegativity table?
UkoKoshka [18]
To know this you pretty much do have to kind of memorize a few electronegativities. I don't recall ever getting a table of electronegativities on an exam.
From the structure, you have:

I remember the following electronegativities most because they are fairly patterned:
EN
H
=
2.1
EN
C
=
2.5
EN
N
=
3.0
EN
O
=
3.5
EN
F
=
4.0
EN
Cl
=
3.5
Notice how carbon through fluorine go in increments of
~
0.5
. I believe Pauling made it that way when he determined electronegativities in the '30s.
Δ
EN
C
−
Cl
=
1.0
Δ
EN
C
−
H
=
0.4
Δ
EN
C
−
C
=
0.0
Δ
EN
C
−
O
=
1.0
Δ
EN
O
−
H
=
1.4
So naturally, with the greatest electronegativity difference of
4.0
−
2.5
=
1.5
, the
C
−
F
bond is most polar, i.e. that bond's electron distribution is the most drawn towards the more electronegative compound as compared to the rest.
When the electron distribution is polarized and drawn towards a more electronegative atom, the less electronegative atom has to move inwards because its nucleus was previously favorably attracted to the electrons from the other atom.
That means generally, the greater the electronegativity difference between two atoms is, the shorter you can expect the bond to be, insofar as the electronegative atom is the same size as another comparable electronegative atom.
However, examining actual data, we would see that on average, in conditions without other bond polarizations occuring:
r
C
−
Cl
≈
177 pm
r
C
−
C
≈
154 pm
r
C
−
O
≈
143 pm
r
C
−
F
≈
135 pm
r
C
−
H
≈
109 pm
r
O
−
H
≈
96 pm
So it is not necessarily the least electronegativity difference that gives the longest bond.
Therefore, you cannot simply consider electronegativity. Examining the radii of the atoms, you should notice that chlorine is the biggest atom in the compound.
r
Cl
≈
79 pm
r
C
≈
70 pm
r
H
≈
53 pm
r
O
≈
60 pm
So assuming the answer is truly
C
−
C
, what would have to hold true is that:
The
C
−
F
bond polarization makes the carbon more electropositive (which is true).
The now more electropositive carbon wishes to attract bonding pairs from chlorine closer, thereby shortening the
C
−
Cl
bond, and potentially the
C
−
H
bond (which is probably true).
The shortening of the
C
−
Cl
bond is somehow enough to be shorter than the
C
−
C
bond (this is debatable).
