Why does one Oxygen atom bond with two Hydrogen atoms to form water? Why don't they bond in a different ratio?

Chemistry

4 0

This is because oxygen (2.8.6) requires two electrons on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2.8.8). Hydrogen (1) on the other hand requires one electron on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2). Therefore in a covalent bond, it requires two hydrogen and one oxygen to share electrons and achieve stable configuration.

Calculate the average reaction rate expressed in moles h2 consumed per liter per second
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Average rate of reaction expressed in moles H₂ consumed per liter per second = 0.0025 M/s = 0.0025 mol/L.s

Explanation:

The complete, correct Question, is presented in the attached image to this answer.

The average rate of reaction in terms of the reactant is defined as the total amount of reactant consumed over a period of time divided by total period of time.

Mathematically,

Average rate of reaction = (change in concentration of H₂ over a period of time) ÷ (total period of time)

Average rate of reaction = (-ΔC)/(Δt)

The minus sign is there because the concentration of reactants reduce with time.

change in concentration of H₂ = -ΔC

= -(0.02 - 0.03) = 0.01 M

Time = Δt = 4 - 0 = 4.0 s

Average rate of reaction = (0.01/4) = 0.0025 M/s

We could solve for the average rate of reaction expressed in moles Cl₂ consumed per liter per second

change in concentration of Cl₂ = -ΔC

= -(0.04 - 0.05) = 0.01 M

Time = Δt = 4 - 0 = 4.0 s

Average rate of reaction = (0.01/4) = 0.0025 M/s = 0.0025 mol/L.s

Hope this Helps!!!

9. How many protons, neutrons, and electrons does 35C1l- have?
Alekssandra [29.7K]
It’s the third one because Cl has 17 protons bc of the numeric number and 18 electrons bc it’s always the opposite and 18 neutrons because you subtract 35-17=18
