The correct answer from the choices given is the third option. Covalent compounds have low boiling points. Also, their melting points are low. Covalent bonds have relatively low attractions which results to these properties. The bonds are easily broken by taking energy or adding energy.
Assuming that the reaction from A and C to AC5 is only
one-step (or an elementary reaction) with a balanced chemical reaction of:
<span>A + 5 C ---> AC5 </span>
Therefore the formation constant can be easily calculated
using the following formula for formation constant:
Kf = product of products concentrations / product of reactants
concentration
<span>Kf = [AC5] / [A] [C]^5 </span>
---> Any coefficient from the balanced chemical
reaction becomes a power in the formula
Substituting the given values into the equation:
Kf = 0.100 M / (0.100 M) (0.0110 M)^5
Kf = 6,209,213,231
or in simpler terms
<span>Kf = 6.21 * 10^9 (ANSWER)</span>
