Can anyone explain dipoles in chemistry?
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A dipole refers to a bond in which its two ends have opposite charges. A dipole results from a large difference in electronegativity between two atoms in a bond.

For instance, consider the bond between hydrogen and chlorine in HCl. The electronegativity of hydrogen is 2.2 while that of chlorine is 3.16. The significant electronegativity difference between the two atoms leads to a charge separation.

A partial positive charge appears on the atom that is less electronegative (hydrogen) while a negative charge appears on the more electronegative atom (chlorine).

This charge separation occurs because the shared electrons of the bond are more closely attracted to chlorine making it partially negative compared to hydrogen. A dipole moment now exists in the H-Cl bond hence the molecule is said to have a dipole.

What is a reasonable estimate for the radius of an atom?
Romashka [77]

Answer is: 1 × 10⁻¹⁰ meter or 0.0000000001 meter.


The atomic radius is a measure of the size of the atom.

It is distance from the center of the nucleus of atom to the boundary of electron cloud.

The radius of atoms is between 30 and 300 pm (10⁻¹² m)  or between 0.3 and 3 angstroms (10⁻¹⁰ m). 

The radius generally decrease along each period of the Periodic table.

How are the formulas and names of ionic compounds written
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
Put the cation (a positive ion, the metal in this case,) without changing anything, then the nonmetal, or anion. For the nonmetal, change the ending to -ide. For example, if you have potassium and chlorine, you would have potassium chloride. Hope this helps!

HELP! WILL GIVE BRAINLY!!!
Contact [7]

Answer:

True

Density = mass/volume

Suppose that a block has a mass of 20 g and a volume of 20 cm^3.

Density = 20 g/20 cm^3 = 1 g/cm^3

Now, you cut the block in half. The half-block has a mass of 10 g and a volume of 10 cm^3.

The density of the half-block is

Density = 10 g/10 cm^3 = 1 g/cm^3

The density stays the same, even though the size of the sample has changed.
