Answer:

0.0714 mole

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Mass of Si = 2g.

The number of mole of silicon can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of Si = 28g/mol

Mass of Si = 2g

Number of mole Si =..?

Number of mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Number of mole of Si = 2/28

Number of mole of Si = 0.0714 mole

Therefore, the number of mole of silicon in the computer chip is 0.0714 mole

A certain compound was found to have the molecular formula C5H12O2. To which of the following compound classes could the compoun

IgorC [24]

Answer : The given compound belongs to ether and alcohol.

Explanation :

The chemical formula of the given compound is, $C_5H_{12}O_2$

First we have to calculate the degree of unsaturation.

Formula used:

Degree of unsaturation = $\frac{2C+2+N-X-H}{2}$

where,

C = number of carbon

H = number of hydrogen

N = number of nitrogen

X = number of halogen

Degree of unsaturation = $\frac{2\times 5+2+0-0-12}{2}=0$

The degree of unsaturation is, 0 that means there is no double or triple bond in the compound only single bond is present between the atoms.

Thus, the given compound belongs to ether and alcohol.

You will analyze four substances in this lab. Based on their chemical formulas and what you already know about covalent and ioni

Phoenix [80]

Answer: Oil: covalent

Cornstarch: Covalent

Sodium chloride: Ionic

Sodium bicarbonate: Ionic

Explanation: Covalent compounds are formed by sharing of electrons between non metals whereas ionic compounds are formed by transfer of electrons from metals to non metals.

1. Oil, which is built from the nonmetals hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen: forms a covalent compound by sharing of electrons between non metals hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen. Covalent compounds are insoluble in water.

2. Cornstarch, a carbohydrate consisting of hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen: forms a covalent compound by sharing of electrons between non metals hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen. Covalent compounds are insoluble in water.

3. Sodium chloride (table salt), whose formula is NaCl is formed by transfer of electrons from sodium to chlorine.Ionic compounds are soluble in water.

4. Sodium bicarbonate, whose formula is $NaHCO_3$ is formed by transfer of electrons from sodium to $HCO_3$ .Ionic compounds are soluble in water.

Are ions of alkali metals larger or smaller than ions of alkaline earth metals from the same period

PtichkaEL [24]

Because size of an atom INCREASES from top to bottom and DECREASES from left to right on the periodic table. If to elements are in the same period they can't increase in size based on the up or down trend. Instead, notice that Alkali Metals are LEFT of Alkaline Earth Metals. Therefore, the Alkali Metal will be larger than the Alkaline Earth Metals.
