It is covalent bonding. The electrons are shared between the phosphorus and the chlorines.
covalent bonding is when electrons are shared between two elements.
molecular polarity is a little bit complicated, but I will try to explain ;)
PCl3 is an alternation on tetrahedral molecules.
It means that P has one lone pair of electrons. This pair of electrons are only attracted to the P nuclei and thus a greater freedom of motion.
This means that their orbital is bigger and this pushes the 3 Cl atoms closer together.
The angle between each Cl now is 107 and the angle between Cls and P is greater than 107.
Now, due to this shape, and also electronegativity (Cl is more electronegative than P meaning that it tends to hog the electrons they share closer to itself), PCl3 is polar. Electrons that are shared tend to flow closer towards the Cl than the P side.
Therefore, on the Cl side of the molecule it's, more negative. On the P side, it's more positive.
Answer:
A. CsBr(s)
Explanation:
we will get here compound with the lowest lattice energy
solution
As we know that Lattice energy is always proportional to the charge of ions and it is inversely proportional to the size of ions.
so that by the smallest charge and the largest size give us the lowest lattice energy and that charge and size is express as here as
Charge
Cs (+1), K(+1), Na (+1), Cl(-1), Br(-1), Sr(+2), Ca(+2), O(-2) .......................1
and
Size
Na+ < Ca2+ < K+ < Sr2+ < Cs+, O2- < Cl- < Br- ..........................2
so that here
correct answer is A. CsBr
Answer:
The answer is given below.
Explanation:
We will consider the acid as HA and will set up an ICE table with the equilibrium dissociation of α.
AT pH 2.4 the initial H+ concentration will be 3.98^10-3 M
HA → H+ + A-
Initial concentration: 0.1 → 3.98 ^10-3 + 0
equilibrium concentration: 0.1(1-α) → 3.98 * 10-3 + 0.1α 0.1α
pKa of chloroacetic acid is 2.9
-log(Ka) = 2.9
Ka = 1.26 * 10-3
From the equation, Ka = [H+] * [A-] / [HA]
1.26 * 10-3 = (3.98 * 10-3 + 0.1α )* 0.1α / 0.1(1-α)
Since α<<1, we assume 1-α = 1
Solving the equation, we have: α = 0.094
Since this is the fraction of acid that has dissociated, we can say that % of base form = 100 * α= 9.4%
Answer:
D.) 1.71 M NaCl
Explanation:
Molarity equation: M= n/v
n= moles of solute
v=liters of solution
NaCl= 58.443 g/mol
30g NaCl / 58.443g/mol = 0.5133(this is n)
0.5133 mols/0.300 L=1.71115674 M
