3. Could a molecule contain only one atom?

1 answer:

8 0

A molecule is defined as two or more atoms of the same element different element that are bound together. A molecule may be homonuclear, which means, it consists of atoms of one chemical element, as with oxygen (O2); or it may be heteronuclear, a chemical compound composed of more than one element, as with water (H2O).

How many grams of water are produced when 4.50 L of

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

The answer for the following problem has been mentioned below.

Therefore the mass of the water is 5.802 grams.

Explanation:

Given:

volume of oxygen (V) = 4.50 L

Temperature (T) = 425 K

pressure of oxygen (P) = 2.50 atm

Gram molecular mass of oxygen (M) = 16.0 grams

To calculate:

mass of water (m)

We know;

According to the ideal gas equation;

P × V = n × R × T

As we know;

no of moles = $\frac{m}{M}$

m represents the mass of oxygen (m)

M represents the Gram molecular mass (M)

According to above mentioned equation;

P × V = n × R × T

P represents the pressure of the oxygen

V represents the volume of the oxygen

n represents the no of moles of the oxygen

R represents the universal gas constant

where,

the value of R is 0.0821 L atm/K moles

Substituting the values in the above equation;

2.50 × 4.50 = $\frac{m}{16.0}$ × 0.0821 × 425

11.25 = $\frac{m}{16.0}$ × 34.8925

180 = m × 34.8925

m = $\frac{180}{34.8925}$

m = 5.158 grams

Therefore the mass of the of oxygen is 5.158 grams

Now;

As we know;

$\frac{m_{1} }{M_{1} } = \frac{m_{2} }{M_{2} }$

where;

$m_{1}$ represents the mass of the oxygen

$M_{1}$ represents the gram molecular mass of the oxygen

$m_{2}$ represents the mass of the water

$M_{2}$ represents the gram molecular mass of water

From the above given formula,

$\frac{5.158}{16.0}$ = $\frac{m_{2} }{18}$

where;

Gram molecular weight of water = 18.0 u

$m_{2}$ = 5.802 grams

Therefore the mass of the water is 5.802 grams.

Watch the animation and identify the correct conditions for forming a hydrogen bond. check all that apply. check all that apply.

OLga [1]

The ch4 molecule exhibits hydrogen bonding.
This statement is false. A CH4 molecule do not have a hydrogen bonding instead it has dipole dipole attraction.

Hydrogen bonding occurs when a hydrogen atom is covalently bonded to an N, O, or F atom.
This would be a true statement. A hydrogen bond is present when an atom of hydrogen shares electrons with O, N or F atom.

A hydrogen bond is equivalent to a covalent bond.
This is a false statement. A hydrogen bond is an intermolecular force of attraction while covalent bond is a intramolecular force. So, they would mean different things.

a hydrogen bond is possible with only certain hydrogen-containing compounds.
This would be true. Without the presence of an hydrogen atom definitely there would be no hydrogen bond.

a hydrogen atom acquires a partial positive charge when it is covalently bonded to an f atom.
This would be true since a HF is a polar molecule.

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

<h3>Option D: Evapotranspiration </h3>

Water is removed both from the plants and the soil. Evapotranspiration is a process by which the water is removed from plants and ground and is added back into the atmosphere. From ground, water is removed in the form of evaporation from the soil. And from plants the water is removed by transpiration. Hence the term Evapotranspiration.
