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.

Compare molecular & covalent network crystal solid?

Daniel [21]

Answer:

Molecular solids and covalent network solids are two types of solid compounds. The key difference between molecular solid and covalent network solid is that <em>molecular solid forms due to the action of Van der Waal forces </em>where as <em>covalent network solid forms due to the action of covalent chemical bonds.</em>

Consider three gases: Ar, SF6, and Cl2. If 50.0 grams of these gases are placed in each of three identical containers, which con

adoni [48]

The ideal gas law:
$pV=nRT \Rightarrow p=\frac{nRT}{V}$
p - pressure, n - number of moles, R - the gas constant, T - temperature, V - volume

The volume and temperature of all three containers are the same, so the pressure depends on the number of moles. The greater the number of moles, the higher the pressure.
The mass of gases is 50 g.

$Ar \\
M \approx 39.948 \ \frac{g}{mol} \\
n=\frac{50 \ g}{39.948 \ \frac{g}{mol}} \approx 1.25 \ mol \\ \\
SF_6 \\
M \approx 146.06 \ \frac{g}{mol} \\
n=\frac{50 \ g}{146.06 \ \frac{g}{mol}} \approx 0.34 \ mol \\ \\
Cl_2 \\
M=70.9 \ \frac{g}{mol} \\
n=\frac{50 \ g}{70.9 \ \frac{g}{mol}} \approx 0.71 \ mol$

The greatest number of moles is in the container with Ar, so there is the highest pressure.
