See explanation

Explanation:

A reaction in which heat and light are produced is a combustion reaction. Combustion is said to have occurred when a substance is burnt in oxygen.

The balanced equation of the reaction is;

4Li(s) + O2(g) ------->2Li2O(s)

This reaction is exothermic because heat was produced. The reaction has a low activation energy as the metal easily burst into flames in oxygen. A catalyst is not needed in this reaction because it has a low activation energy.

According to the law of conservation of mass. Atoms are neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. What this means is that in a chemical reaction, the number of atoms of each element on the left hand side must be the same as the same as the number of atoms of the same element on the right hand side.

Calculate the volume of the gas, in liters, if 1.75 mol has a pressure of 1.28 atm at a temperature of -7 ∘C

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

A sample of an ideal gas has a volume of 2.21 L at 279 K and 1.01 atm. Calculate the pressure when the volume is 1.23 L and the temperature is 299 K.

You need to apply the ideal gas law PV=nRT

You have the pressure, P=1.01 atm

you have the volume, V = 2.21 L

The ideal gas constant R= 0.08205 L. atm/ mole.K at 273 K

find n = PV/RT = (1.01 atm x 2.21 L / 0.08205 L.atm/ mole.K x 273 K)

n= 0.1 mole, Now find the pressure for n=0.1 mole, T= 299K and

L=1.23 L

P=nRT/V= 0.1mole x 0.08205 (L.atm/ mole.K x 299 k)/ 1.23 L

= 1.994 atm

The only bonds in a formula unit of CaF2 are __________. nonpolar covalent polar covalent ionic metallic

adell [148]

Answer:

ionic

Explanation:

Ionic bonds exist between Ca and F ions in CaF₂. Ionic bonds are interatomic bonds formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to the other.

The donor atom here is Ca and it has two valence electrons. Fluorine is the receiving atom with 7 electrons in its outermost shell.

Ca would give one each of its two outermost electrons to the fluorine atoms to complete their octet. Ca ion would now resemble Argon and the flourine atoms would look more like Neon atoms.

This is an ionic bond
