What is the polarity of carbon carbon bonds in alkanes?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Andrews [41]3 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 chemical equation below shows the formation of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) from aluminum (Al) and oxygen (O2).
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Mass = 182.4 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Al₂O₃ = 3.80 mol

Mass of oxygen required = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

4Al + 3O₂    →       2Al₂O₃

Now we will compare the moles of aluminum oxide and oxygen.

                Al₂O₃           :           O₂

                   2               :            3

                 3.80            :         3/2×3.80 = 5.7

Mass of oxygen:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 5.7 mol × 32 g/mol

Mass = 182.4 g
