Why is NH3 polar but CH4 non polar

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alex787 [66]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Nitrogen has a lone pair of electrons. That would mean that NH3 is minus at the left end in this case.

 H

:N  H

H

Methane has its Hs 90 degrees (approximately apart.

    H

H  C  H

    H

The pulling forces on the methane cancel each other out. When that happens the chemical is non polar.

What are some bad thing jellyfish do?
True [87]
Jellyfish aren't necessarily bad or do bad things humans do find that the tentacles that happen to "shock" or "electructe" people are bad. As well as the way jellyfish live in one grouping it is rare but you can find jellyfish out of a group, they do this that way they can eat and stay away from predators.

<em>Same group element have same</em><em><u> Valence electron</u></em><em> and behave similarly in </em><em><u>Chemistry.</u></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

For example. First group elements Alkali metals:- H, Li, K, Rb, Cs, Fr

Valance electron will take part in forming a bond with other elements and compound will form. All the above-given elements (H-Fr) have valence electron 1 in outer most 'S' shell. All have electronic configuration S1

Behavior: Since valence electrons are the same so the behavior of all the elements in this group is the same. All are metal (from Li-Fr, except Hydrogen), all are very reactive, does not found in native state in the environment, and all react with water.

When an aqueous solution containing hydrochloric acid is just neutralized with an aqueous solution containing sodium hydroxide,
Elza [17]

Answer:

c. salty.

Explanation:

From the question,

The reaction of an acid , i.e hydrochloric acid and a base i.e. , sodium hydroxide takes place , which is a type of neutralization reaction,

Where the acid and a base reacts to give salt along with water .

From the question,

The reaction is as follows -

2 HCl  +  NaOH  →  NaCl  +  H₂O  

Hence, the resulting product is a salt ,

Therefore , the resulting solution would taste like salt.

Consider the balanced equation of K I KI reacting with P b ( N O 3 ) 2 Pb(NOX3)X2 to form a precipitate. 2 K I ( a q ) + P b ( N
professor190 [17]

Answer: 50.7 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}

a) moles of KI

\text{Number of moles}=molarity\times {\text {Volume in L]}=0.417M\times 0.528L=0.220moles

The balanced chemical equation is:

2KI(aq)+Pb(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow PbI_2(s)+2KNO_3(aq)

KI is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and Pb(NO_3)_2 is in excess.

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of KI give =  1 mole of PbI_2

Thus 0.220 moles of KI give=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.220=0.110moles  of PbI_2

Mass of PbI_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.110moles\times 461.01g/mol=50.7g

Thus 50.7 g of PbI_2 will be formed.
