Answer:

\large \boxed{9.780 \times 10^{4}\text{ u}}

Explanation:

The molecular mass of a monomer unit is:

C₂H₃Cl = 2×12.01 + 3×1.008 + 35.45 = 24.02 + 3.024 + 35.45 = 62.494 u

For 1565 units,

\text{Molecular mass} = \text{1565 units} \times \dfrac{\text{62.494 u}}{\text{1 unit }} = \mathbf{9.780 \times 10^{4}}\textbf{ u}\\\\\text{The molecular mass of the chain is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{9.780 \times 10^{4}}\textbf{ u}}$}

How would the calculated value of Ksp be affected by the accidental and unknowing collection of solid lead(II) chloride via pipe
Papessa [141]

Explanation:

It is known that relation between Gibb's free energy and equilibrium or reaction quotient is as follows.

             \Delta G = \Delta G^{o} + 2.303 RT logQ    ..... (1)

At equilibrium, \Delta G = 0. Also, Q = K this means that reaction is at equilibrium.

Therefore, formula in equation (1) will become as follows.

                \Delta G^{o} = -2.303 RT log K      ....... (2)

It is known that for a sparingly soluble salt, K = K_{sp}

Thus, equation (2) will become as follows.

                \Delta G^{o} = -2.303 RT log K_{sp}  ....... (3)

So, when value of K_{sp} increases then there will be decrease in the value of \Delta G^{o} according to equation (3).

Hence, we can conclude that the calculated value of K_sp would be too big.

Which pair of atoms would form a covalent bond ?
AysviL [449]
Answer:- Nonmetals can form different types of bonds depending on their partner atoms. Ionic bonds form when a nonmetal and a metal exchange electrons, while covalent bonds form when electrons are shared between two nonmetals.
