Answer:
A
Explanation:
water molecules are combined to make food
valence electrons are the number of electrons in the outer shell. there can only be 8 electrons in the outer shell. The number of valence electrons can be used to determine how many bonds are needed.
For example: H2O
O (oxygen) has 6 valence electrons
H (hydrogen) has 1 valence electron
O needs 2 more electrons to be stable
H needs 1 more electron to be stable
O forms one bond with two H atoms to form H2O.
Answer:
59.8%
Explanation:
First find the Mr of manganese (III) nitrate.
Mr of Mn(NO₃)₃ = 54.9 + (14 × 3) + (16 × 3 × 3) = <u>240.9</u>
Since we have to find the percentage composition of oxygen, we need to find the Mr of oxygen in the compound, which is:
Mr of (O₃)₃ = (16 × 3) × 3 = <u>144</u>
Now we can find percentage composition / percentage by mass of oxygen.
% composition =
× 100
% composition =
× 100 = <u>59.776%</u>
∴ % compostion of oxygen in maganese(III)nitrate is 59.8% (to 3 significant figures).
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>
hope this helps
Answer:
The correct answer is there is a mistake in the calculation. The second law of thermodynamics state that in any spontaneous process there is an increase in the entropy of the universe.
Explanation:
According to the second law a reaction will occur in a system spontaneously if the total entropy of both system and surrounding increases during the reaction.That means in case of spontaneous reaction entropy change is always positive.
But according to the question the reaction H2+F2=2HF is spontaneous in all temperature.So according to the second law of thermodynamics i can say that my classmate made a mistake in calculation that"s why his result for entropy change comes negative.
