Answer: More the electronegativity difference, more polar will be the bond.

Explanation: The electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an element to attract a shared pair of electron towards itself in a chemical bond.

Polarity of the bond is described by the electronegativity difference between the elements making the bond. More the electronegativity difference, more polar is the bond.

The electronegativities of oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen are:

For Oxygen : 3.44

For Hydrogen : 2.1

For Nitrogen : 3.04

In H_2O

Electronegativity difference between oxygen and hydrogen = (3.44 - 2.1) = 1.34

In NH_3

Electronegativity difference between nitrogen and hydrogen = (3.04 - 2.1) = 0.94

As, the Electronegativity difference between oxygen and hydrogen is more, therefore water molecule is more polar.

The equilibrium constant for the reaction:
Scrat [10]

Answer:

1. NO and Br₂

2. 77

3. 8.8

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

2 NO(g) + Br₂(g) ⇄ 2 NOBr(g)

The equilibrium constant for this reaction is:

Kc_{1}=\frac{[NOBr]^{2}}{[NO]^{2}[Br_{2}]} =1.3 \times 10^{-2}

1. At this temperature does the equilibrium favor NO and Br₂, or does it favor NOBr?

Since Kc₁ < 1, the reactants are favored, that is, NO and Br₂.

2. Calculate Kc for 2 NOBr(g) ⇄ 2 NO(g) + Br₂(g)

The equilibrium constant is:

Kc_{2}=\frac{[NO]^{2}[Br_{2}]}{[NOBr]^{2}} =\frac{1}{Kc_{1}} =77

3. Calculate Kc for NOBr(g) ⇄ NO(g) + 1/2 Br₂(g)

The equilibrium constant is:

Kc_{3}=\frac{[NO][Br_{2}]^{1/2} }{[NOBr]} =\sqrt{\frac{[NO]^{2}[Br_{2}]}{[NOBr]^{2}}} =\sqrt{Kc_{2}} =8.8

Consider the chemical equation for the ionization of CH3NH2 in water. Estimate the percent ionization of CH3NH2 in a 0.050 M CH3
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:  The percent ionization of CH_3NH_2 in a 0.050 M CH_3NH_2(aq) solution is 8.9 %

Explanation:

CH_3NH_2+H_2O\rightarrow OH^-+CH_3NH_3^+

 cM                            0             0

c-c\alpha                       c\alpha            c\alpha

So dissociation constant will be:

K_b=\frac{(c\alpha)^{2}}{c-c\alpha}

Give c= concentration = 0.050 M and \alpha = degree of ionisation = ?

K_b=4.4\times 10^{-4}

Putting in the values we get:

4.4\times 10^{-4}=\frac{(0.050\times \alpha)^2}{(0.050-0.050\times \alpha)}

(\alpha)=0.089

percent ionisation =0.089\times 100=8.9\%

What is the mass of oxygen in 300 grams of carbonic acid (H2CO3)
DENIUS [597]

mass of carbonic acid = 300g

molar mass of H2CO3 = 2H + C + 3 O

= 2 x 1.008+ 12.01 + 3 x  16

= 62.03g/mol


moles of H2CO3 = mass/Molar mass

= 300/62.03

= 4.8364 moles


1 mole H2CO3 has 3 moles Oxygen


4.8364 moles H2CO3 contains  

=   3 x 4.8364  moles Oxygen  =   14.509 moles Oxygen


moles = mass/Molar mass


mass of oxygen = moles x Molar mass of Oxygen

= 14.509 x 16

= 232.15g Oxygen

mass of oxygen in 300g of carbonic acid(H2CO3) = 232.15g

If the outside of your flask is not dry when the first mass determination is made and it is dried for the second mass determinat
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

You'll experience a grater deviation

Explanation:

<em>You'll experience a greater deviation in your measurements, meaning your measures will have a bigger difference between them, and the greater these deviations the less accurate will be the measuring.</em> This happens mainly because you're not replicating the measurement with the exact same conditions, in one of them you'll have an extra mass from the water.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
