Isotope ¹⁸F⁻ contains:
1) p⁺ = 9; number of protons.
Fluorine has a<span>tomic number Z = 9 (total number of protons).
2) e</span>⁻<span> = 10; </span>number of electrons.<span>
In element number of electrons and protons are the same, because element has neutral charge, but because in this example, fluorine is anion with negative charge, it has one electron more.
3) n</span>° = 9; number of neutrons.
<span>Mass number A = 18 is total number of protons and neutrons in a nucleus, so number of neutrons is A-Z = 18-9=9.</span>

The number of bonded pairs of _______ in a covalent bond equals the bond order.
egoroff_w [7]
<span>The number of bonded pairs of electrons in a covalent bond equals the bond order.

For example:
In molecule of hydrogen (H</span>₂), bond order is 1 (H-H), because there is one pair of electrons between hydrogen atoms.
In molecule of oxygen (O₂), bond order is 2 (O=O), because there are two pair of electrons (4 electrons) between oxygen atoms.
In molecule of nitrogen (N₂), bond order is 3 , because there are three pair of electrons (6 electrons) between nitrogen atoms.

The balanced equation for a hypothetical reaction is a + 5b + 6c → 3d + 3e. what is the rate law for this reaction? rate = k [a]
nekit [7.7K]

<u>Answer: </u>The correct rate of the reaction is Rate=k[a][b]^5[c]^6

<u>Explanation:</u>

Rate law of the reaction is the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in the terms of the molar concentrations of the reactants with each term raised to the power of their respective stoichiometric coefficients in a balanced chemical equation.

For the given reaction:

a+5b+6c\rightarrow 3d+3e

The expression for the rate law will be: Rate=k[a][b]^5[c]^6

Which is stronger - the attractive forces between water molecules and chromium and chloride ions, or the combined ionic bond str
Tju [1.3M]

Answer is: the combined ionic bond strength of CrCl₂ and intermolecular forces between water molecules.

When chromium chloride (CrCl₂) is dissolved in water, the temperature of the water increases, heat of the solution is endothermic.

Dissociation of chromium chloride in water: CrCl₂(aq) → Cr²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq).

Energy (the lattice energy) is required to pull apart the oppositely charged ions in chromium chloride.

The heat of hydration is liberated energy when the separated ions (in this example chromium cations and chlorine anions) attract polar water molecules.

Because the lattice energy is higher than the heat of the hydration (endothermic reaction), we can conclude that bonds between ions are strong (the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions).
