Answer:

CaF2

Explanation:

Calcium fluoride is a solid formed by the chemical combination of Calcium (Ca) and Fluorine (F). Two molecules of fluorine (F2) and one molecule of Calcium (Ca) are needed to form the Calcium Fluoride molecule.

An ionic bond is formed between the Calcium and Fluorine atoms i.e. electrons are transferred from calcium atoms to fluorine atoms. The calcium ion is a cation with formula; Ca2+ while fluorine is an anion with formula; F-. Hence, it takes two molecules of Fluorine ion (F-) to form a relatively stable and neutral molecule with 1 molecule of Calcium ion (Ca2+).

Rank the following atoms in order of increasing electronegativity.a. Se, O, S b. P, Na, Cl c. Cl, S, F d. O, P, N
Papessa [141]

Answer:

a)- Se, S, O

b)- Na, P, Cl

c)- S, Cl, F

d)- P, N, O

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by looking at the Periodic Table. In a group, electronegativity increases from bottom to top; whereas in periods it increases from left to right.

Thus, we order the elements from lower to higher electronegativity as follows:

a. Se, O, S ⇒ order: Se, S, O

Because they are all in the same group. Se is near the bottom, followed by S and O is at the top.

b. P, Na, Cl ⇒ order: Na, P, Cl

They are in the same period. Na is at the left, followed by P and Cl is nearest the right.

c. Cl, S, F ⇒ order: S, Cl, F

P and Cl are in the same period, and P is at the left, so it has the lowest electronegativity. F is in the same group of Cl, but at the top. F has the highest electronegativity.

d. O, P, N ⇒ order: P, N, O

N and P are in the same group, but P is at the bottom so it has the lower electronegativity. N and O are in the same period, but O is at the right, so it is the most electronegative.

2C₂H6 + 702 —>4C02 + 6H₂O
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

975.56×10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of molecules of C₂H₆ = 4.88×10²⁵

Number of molecules of CO₂ produced  =  ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2C₂H₆  + 7O₂     →      4CO₂ + 6H₂O

Number of moles of C₂H₆:

1 mole = 6.022×10²³ molecules

4.88×10²⁵  molecules×1mol/6.022×10²³ molecules

0.81×10² mol

81 mol

Now we will compare the moles of C₂H₆ with CO₂.

                     C₂H₆          :             CO₂

                          2           :               4

                           81         :           4/2×81 = 162 mol

Number of molecules of CO₂:

1 mole = 6.022×10²³ molecules

162 mol ×6.022×10²³ molecules / 1 mol

975.56×10²³ molecules
