Answer:

For Covalent bonds, atoms tend to share their electrons with each other to satisfy the Octet Rule. It requires 8 electrons because that is the amount of electrons needed to fill a s- and p- orbital (electron configuration); also known as a noble gas configuration

There are several differences between chemical and physical changes. Which process is a sign of a chemical change? A. Rotting po

Nataly [62]

Answer:

A. a rotten potato gives all of bad smell

Explanation:

B,C,D are all physical changes because we can reverse them back.we can cool the water back to make ice. if the wind passes again we can randomly get the same cloud shape in c. and in d we can make that statue again. but in A can we reverse the rotting process ? ( the enzyme reaction) no we cant because it is a chemical reaction it gives a bad smell because of the chemical changes occuring in it.

hope this helps

Which of the following represents the least number of molecues?

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Answer: a) 20g of H2O (18.02 g/mol) molecules=6.68x10^23

Explanation:

In order to find the amount of molecules of each of the options, we need to follow the following equation.

$molecules=\frac{mass(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{atomic weight(g/mol)}$

So, let´s get the number of molecules for each of the options.

$a) molecules=\frac{20(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{18.02(g/mol)}=6.68x10^{23}molecules$

$b) molecules=\frac{77(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{16.06(g/mol)}=2.89x10^{24}molecules$

$c) molecules=\frac{68(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{42.09(g/mol)}=9.73x10^{23}molecules$

$d) molecules=\frac{100(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{44.02(g/mol)}=1.37x10^{24}molecules$

$d) molecules=\frac{84(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{20.01(g/mol)}=2.53x10^{24}molecules$

the smalest number is in option a)

Best of luck.

How does electronegativity impact polarity of molecules?

marysya [2.9K]

Electronegativity is the measure of the ability of an atom to attract electrons to itself. Fluorine is the most electronegative element and francium is one of the leastelectronegative. ... The molecule's polarity will be determined on the negative and positive regions on the outer atoms in the molecule.

Hydrogen produced from a hydrolysis reaction was collected over water and the following data was compiled.

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

0.00358 mol

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) V = 93.90 ml

b) T = 28°C

c) P₁ = 744 mmHg

d) P₂ = 28.25 mmHg

d) n = ?

2) Conversion of units

a) V = 93.90 ml × 1.000 liter / 1,000 ml = 0.09390 liter

b) T = 28°C = 28 + 273.15 K = 301.15 K

c) P₁ = 744 mmHg × 1 atm / 760 mmHg = 0.9789 atm

d) P₂ = 28.5 mmHg × 1 atm / 760 mmHg = 0.0375 atm

3) Chemical principles and formulae

a) The total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of each gas. Hence, the partical pressure of the hydrogen gas collected is equal to the total pressure less the vapor pressure of water.

b) Ideal gas equation: pV = nRT

4) Solution:

a) Partial pressure of hydrogen gas: 0.9789 atm - 0.0375 atm = 0.9414 atm

b) Moles of hygrogen gas:

pV = nRT ⇒ n = pV / (RT) =

n = (0.9414 atm × 0.09390 liter) / (0.0821 atm-liter /K-mol × 301.15K) =

n = 0.00358 mol (which is rounded to 3 significant figures) ← answer
