What is the polarity of carbon carbon bonds in alkanes?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Andrews [41]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Alkanes contain only carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds. Because carbon and hydrogen have similar electronegativity values, the C—H bonds are essentially nonpolar. Thus, alkanes are nonpolar, and they interact only by weak London forces.

The formation of CsCl from Cs(s) and Cl2 (g) involves the following steps:
scoray [572]

Explanation:

1) Cs(s)\rightarrow Cs(g)

Energy will be absorbed by the Cs(s) to get converted into Cs(g). In order to break the strong association of particles present in solid to convert it into gaseous state energy will be needed. So, energy will be absorbed by the Cs solid in this reaction.

2) \frac{1}{2}Cl_2(g)\rightarrow Cl(g)

Energy will be absorbed by Cl_2 gas in order to break bond between two Cl atoms to form isolated(alone) single chlorine atom.So, the energy will be absorbed by the chlorine gas molecule in this reaction.

3) Cs(g)\rightarrow Cs^+(g)+e^-

Energy will be absorbed by the Cs(g) to get converted into Cs^+(g) cation. In order to remove an electron from the outer most shell of Cs atom energy will be required by Cs atom, So, energy will be absorbed in this reaction.

4) Cl(g)+e^-\rightarrow Cl^-(g)

Energy will get release in formation of Cl^- anion from Cl atom in gaseous state. Chlorine atom need one electron to attain noble gas configuration. So, when an electron is added to the outer most shell of chlorine it attains stability of fully filled outermost shell by which it releases energy on addition of an electron.

5) Cs^+(g)+Cl^-(g)\rightarrow CsCl(s)

Energy will get release on formation of CsCl(s) fromCs^+ cation and Cl^- anion. since both are oppositely charged ion and due to strong electrostatic interaction will get converted into stable molecule of CsCl (s) with release in an energy.

Explain the difference between a physical property and a chemical property
Eduardwww [97]
Physical property-  is an aspect of matter that can be observed or measured without touching changing it.

Chemical property- may only be observed by changing the chemical identity of a substance.

The difference would be that for physical property's you dont need to do anything to figure out what they are, but for chemical properties you need to change something to observe them.
