Which carbon atom has the most partial positive character?

1 answer:

4 0

A carbon atom would have a partial positive character if it is bonded with a much more electronegative element. The periodic trend for electronegativity is increasing as you go from right to left, and decreasing as you go down a group. Thus, a more electronegative element than carbon would either be nitrogen, oxygen and fluorine. Hence, bonds involving CN, CO and CF would have a partial positive character for carbon.

How many mole of ZnCl2 will be produced from 55.0 g of Zn, assuming HCL is available in excess

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

0.84 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Moles of ZnCl₂ produced = ?

Mass of Zn = 55.0 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2HCl + Zn → ZnCl₂ + H₂

Number of moles of Zn:

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 55.0 g/ 65.38 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.84 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Zn with ZnCl₂ from balance chemical equation.

Zn : ZnCl₂

1 : 1

0.84 : 0.84

So from 55 g of Zn 0.84 moles of zinc chloride will be produced.
