Each carbon atom is covalently bonded to four other carbon atoms. A lot of energy is needed to separate the atoms in diamond. This is because covalent bonds are strong, and diamond contains very many covalent bonds. This makes diamond's melting point and boiling point very high.
Answer:
i = 2.79
Explanation:
The excersise talks about the colligative property, freezing point depression.
Formula to calculate the freezing point of a solution is:
Freezing point of pure solvent - Freezing point of solution = m . Kf . i
Let's replace data given. (i = Van't Hoff factor, numbers of ions dissolved in solution)
48.1°C - 44°C = 0.15 m . 9.78°C/m . i
4.1°C / (0.15 m . 9.78°C/m) = i
i = 2.79
In this case, numbers of ions dissolved can decrease the freezing point of a solution, which is always lower than pure solvent.
Basically all of the elements found in Group I of the periodic table also have this property. The ability to easily give up a single valence electron.
Answer:
False.
Explanation:
Hexanal is a non-polar compound while water is a polar solvent.
We have the role "Like dissolves like".
So, hexanal is insoluble in water.
