Answer : The correct option is, (A) $Si_3N_4$

Explanation :

Trisilicon tetranitride is a covalent compound because sharing of electrons takes place between silicon and nitrogen. Both the elements are non-metals and hence, will form a covalent bond.

The formula of covalent compound is given by :

The less electronegative element is written first.
The more electronegative element is written next.
If atoms of an element is greater than 1 that means their prefixes are written in the respective element's subscript.

As per given name of compound, the less electronegative element is 'Si' and more electronegative element is 'N'.

So, the chemical formula of trisilicon tetranitride is, $Si_3N_4$

What volume will 50.2 grams of co2 (g) occupy at stp?

Genrish500 [490]

Number of moles of CO2 =
Mass /Ar
= 50.2 / (12 + 32)
1.14 mols

For every 1 mol of gas, there will be
24000 cm^3 of gas

Vol. = 1.14 x 24 dm^3
= 27.36 dm^3

On the basis of the Ksp values below, what is the order of the solubility from least soluble to most soluble for these compounds

Viktor [21]

Answer:

The order of solubility is AgBr < Ag₂CO₃ < AgCl

Explanation:

The solubility constant give us the molar solubilty of ionic compounds. In general for a compound AB the ksp will be given by:

Ksp = (A) (B) where A and B are the molar solubilities = s² (for compounds with 1:1 ratio).

It follows then that the higher the value of Ksp the greater solubilty of the compound if we are comparing compounds with the same ionic ratios:

Comparing AgBr: Ksp = 5.4 x 10⁻¹³ with AgCl: Ksp = 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰, AgCl will be more soluble.

Comparing Ag2CO3: Ksp = 8.0 x 10⁻¹² with AgCl Ksp = AgCl: Ksp = 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰ we have the complication of the ratio of ions 2:1 in Ag2CO3, so the answer is not obvious. But since we know that

Ag2CO3 ⇄ 2 Ag⁺ + CO₃²₋

Ksp Ag2CO3 = 2s x s = 2 s² = 8.0 x 10-12

s = 4 x 10⁻12 ∴ s= 2 x 10⁻⁶

And for AgCl

AgCl ⇄ Ag⁺ + Cl⁻

Ksp = s² = 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰ ∴ s = √ 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰ = 1.3 x 10⁻⁵

Therefore, AgCl is more soluble than Ag₂CO₃

The order of solubility is AgBr < Ag₂CO₃ < AgCl

How many liters of a 2.0 M solution of HCl do you need to have 8.0 moles of HCI?

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

1M HCl: add 1mol/12M = 83 ml conc. HCl to 1L of water or 8.3ml to 100ml.

2M HCl: add 2mol/12M = 167 ml conc. HCl to 1L of water or 16.7ml to 100ml.
