What's a certain indicator that a molecule is polar?

1 answer:

3 0

A polar molecule is when the arrangement of the atoms in molecules are unequal, so one end of the molecule has a positive charge, and the other end has a negative charge.

A sheet of gold weighing 8.8 g and at a temperature of 10.5°C is placed flat on a sheet of iron weighing 19.5 g and at a tempera

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

$T = 36.393\,^{\textdegree}C$

Explanation:

The contact between the sheet of gold and the sheet of iron allows a heat transfer until thermal equilibrium is done, which means that both sheets have the same temperature:

$-Q_{iron} = Q_{gold}$

$-(0.008\,kg)\cdot (452\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} )\cdot (T-54.4\,^{\textdegree}C) = (0.0195\,kg)\cdot (129\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} )\cdot (T-10.5\,^{\textdegree}C)$

$-(3.616\,\frac{J}{^{\textdegree}C})\cdot (T-54.4\,^{\textdegree}C) = (2.515\,\frac{J}{^{\textdegree}C})\cdot (T-10.5^{\textdegree}C)$

$-1.438\cdot (T - 54.4^{\textdegree}C) = T-10.5^{\textdegree}C$

$-1.438\cdot T +78.227^{\textdegree}C = T - 10.5^{\textdegree}C$

$2.438\cdot T = 88.727\,^{\textdegree}C$

The final temperature is:

$T = 36.393\,^{\textdegree}C$

Why does argon exist in nature as individual argon atoms and chlorine exist in nature as 2 chlorine atoms covalently bonded toge

Katarina [22]

Answer:

Argon has 8 valence electrons and no extras, it does not require a bond in order to fill its shells, its satisfied by itself.

Chlorine is missing 1 Electron, if it connects with another Chlorine it will be satisfying both of their needs with a Covalent bond.

C2H5OH(l) + 3O2(g) → 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(l), ΔH = –1.37 × 103 kJ For the combustion of ethyl alcohol as described in the above equati

babymother [125]

Answer:

The true statements are: I. The reaction is exothermic.

II. The enthalpy change would be different if gaseous water was produced.

Explanation:

The given chemical reaction: C₂H₅OH(l) + 3O₂(g) → 2CO₂(g) + 3H₂O(l), ΔH= -1.37×10³kJ

1. In an exothermic reaction, heat or energy is released from the system to the surrounding. Thus for an exothermic process the change in enthalpy is less than 0 or negative (ΔH < 0) .

Since the enthalpy change for a combustion reaction is negative. Therefore, the given reaction is exothermic.

2. The change in enthalpy (ΔH) of a reaction is equal to difference of the sum of standard enthalpy of formation (ΔHf°) of the products and the reactants.

ΔHr° = ∑ n.ΔHf°(products) − ∑ n.ΔHf°(reactants)

As the value of ΔHf° of water in gaseous state and liquid state is not the same.

Therefore, the enthalpy change of the reaction will be different, if gaseous water was present instead of liquid water.

3. An oxidation-reduction reaction or a redox reaction involves simultaneous reduction and oxidation processes.

The given chemical reaction, represents the combustion reaction of ethanol.

Since combustion reactions are redox reactions. Therefore, the given combustion reaction is an oxidation-reduction reaction.

4. According to the ideal gas equation: P.V =n.R.T

Volume (V) ∝ n (number of moles of gas)

Since the number of moles (n) of gaseous reactants is 3 and number of moles of gaseous (n) products is 2.

Therefore, the volume occupied by 3 moles of the reactant gaseous molecules will be more than 2 moles product gaseous molecules.
