What is meant by the octet rule? What electrons are involved? How does this affect how elements bond?

Chemistry
1 answer:
FromTheMoon [43]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The octet rule is a chemical rule of thumb that reflects the observation that main group elements tend to bond in such a way that each atom has eight electrons in its valence shell, giving it the same electronic configuration as a noble gas

The solubility KI is 50 g in 100 g of H2O at 20 °C. if 110 grams of ki are added to 200 grams of H2O ________
Salsk061 [2.6K]

The solubility KI is 50 g in 100 g of H₂O at 20 °C. if 110 grams of ki are added to 200 grams of H₂O <u>the </u><u>solution </u><u>will be </u><u>saturated</u><u>.</u>

<h3>What is solubility?</h3>

Solubility is a condition where the solute is fully dissolved in the solvent. When fully mixed with the solvent.

Given that 50 g of KI is added to 100 g of water at 20 °C it means 100 g of water can dissolve a maximum of 50 g of  KCl.

1 g of water will dissolve an quantity of 0.5 g of  KCl.

To assay for 200 g of water: 200 g of water can disintegrate a maximum of (0.5) x 200 g of  KCl.

The maximum amount of KCl that will dissolve is 100 g

Actualised amount dissolved = 110 g

when Amount dissolved > Maximum solubility limit

110 g > 100 g

Thus,  the solution is saturated.

Which of these has the most covalent character? <br> NaF Caf2 Bef2 CsF SrF2
Ksenya-84 [330]

Thus BeF2 is of most covalent character.

Anyways, covalent/ionic character is a bit tricky to figure out; we measure the difference in electronegativity of two elements bonding together and we use the following rule of thumb: if the charge is 0 (or a little more), the bond is non-polar covalent; if the charge is > 0 but < 2.0 (some references say 1.7), the bond is polar covalent; if the charge is > 2.0 then the bond is ionic. Covalent character refers to smaller electronegativity difference while ionic character refers to greater electronegativity difference.


Now, notice all of our bonds are with F, fluorine, which has the highest electronegativity of 3.98. This means that to determine character we need to consider the electronegativities of the other elements -- whichever has the greatest electronegativity has the least difference and most covalent character.
Na, sodium, has electronegativity of 0.93, so our difference is ~3 -- meaning our bond is ionic. Ca, calcium, has 1.00, leaving our difference to again be ~3 and therefore the bond is ionic. Be, beryllium, has 1.57 yielding a difference of ~2.5, meaning we're still dealing with ionic bond. Cs, cesium, has 0.79, meaning our difference is again ~3 and therefore again our compound is of ionic bond. Lastly, we have Sr, strontium, with an electronegativity of 0.95 and therefore again a difference of roughly 3 and an ionic bond. <span>

Find the mass of 2.16 × 1023 molecules H2S.<br> Answer in units of g.
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Mass = 12.276 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of molecules of H₂S = 2.16 × 10²³

Mass in gram = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

Number of moles of  H₂S:

2.16 × 10²³ molecules × 1 mole /6.022 × 10²³ molecules

0.36 moles

Mass = number of moles ×  molar mass

Mass = 0.36 mol × 34.1 g/mol

Mass = 12.276 g

What is the maximum volume of 0.25 M sodium hypochlorite solution (NaOCl, laundry bleach) that can be prepared by dilution of 1.
ehidna [41]

Answer:

0.313L

Explanation:

0.25Mx1.00L=0.80Mx V2

so, 0.25x1.00/0.80=0.313L
