Determine whether each molecule given below is polar or nonpolar. of2

Chemistry
1 answer:
sergejj [24]2 years ago

Answer : The molecule OF_2 is a polar molecule.

Explanation :

Polar molecule : When the arrangement of the molecule is asymmetrical then the molecule is polar.

Non-polar molecule : When the arrangement of the molecule is symmetrical then the molecule is non-polar.

The given molecule is, OF_2

The electronegativities of oxygen and fluorine are different. The molecular geometry of OF_2 is bent. As, Fluorine is more elctronegative than the oxygen. So, the arrows putting towards the more electronegative element i.e, fluorine. These arrows do not balance each other. Due to this, the asymmetrical arrangement of these bonds makes the molecule polar.

Hence, the given molecule OF_2 is polar.

A container of oxygen has a volume of 30.0 mL and a pressure of 72.5 psi. If the pressure of the oxygen gas is reduced to 28 psi
OLga [1]

Answer:

THE NEW VOLUME OF THE OXYGEN GAS AT 28 PSI FROM 72.5 PSI IS 0.078 L.

Explanation:

Initial volume of the oxygen in the container = 30.0 mL = 30 / 000 L = 0.03 L

Initial pressure of the oxygen = 72.5 psi =  1 psi = 6890 pascal

Final pressure = 28 psi

Final volume = unknown

First convert the mL to L and since both pressures are in similar unit that is psi; there is no need converting them to pascal or other standard unit of pressure. They cancel each other out.

This question follows Boyle's equation of gas laws and mathematically it is written as:

P1 V1 = P2 V2

Re-arranging by making P2 the subject of the formula, we have:

V2 = P1 V1 / P2

V2 = 72,5 * 0.03 / 28

V2 = 2.175 /28

V2 = 0.0776 L

The new volume of the oxygen gas at a change in pressure from 72.5 psi to 28 psi is 0.078 L.

4.2g of cerium reacted with oxygen to form 5.16g of an oxide of cerium. Find
olganol [36]

Answer:

CeO₂

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since we are given the mass of both cerium and the cerium oxide, we can first compute the moles of cerium and the moles of oxygen as shown below:

n_{Ce}=4.2gCe*\frac{1molCe}{140.12gCe}=0.03molCe\\

m_O=5.16g-4.2g=0.96gO\\\\n_O=0.96g*\frac{1molO}{16.0gO} =0.06molO

Now, we simply divide each moles by 0.03 as the fewest moles in the formula to obtain the simplest formula (empirical formula) of this oxide:

Ce=\frac{0.03}{0.03}=1\\\\O =\frac{0.06}{0.03}=2

Thus, the formula turns out:

CeO_2

Regards!

1. Which trait is most likely to be passed on to its organism’s offspring?
mart [117]

Answer:Evolution

Evolution is the process by which populations of organisms change over generations. … If a trait is advantageous and helps the individual survive and reproduce, the genetic variation is more likely to be passed to the next generation (a process known as natural selection).

A 100.0 ml sample of 0.18 m hclo4 is titrated with 0.27 m lioh. determine the ph of the solution before the addition of any lioh
snow_lady [41]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. Below is the solution:

 <span>moles HClO4 = 0.100 L x 0.18 M = 0.018 
moles LiOH = 0.030 L x 0.27 = 0.0081 
moles H+ in excess = 0.018 - 0.0081 = 0.0099 
total volume = 0.130 L 
[H+] = 0.0099/ 0.130= 0.0762 M 
pH = 1.12</span>
