Answer:
44 g
Explanation:
The formula for the number of moles (n) is equal to 
.
Since we need to find the mass, we derive it from the formula of the number of moles and we get that mass = n x molecular weight .
The molecular weight of 
= 12 g/mol (from the carbon) + 19x4 g/mol (from the 4 fluorine atoms)= 88 g/mol
We plug in the numbers in the derived formula for the mass and we get :
mass = n x molecular weight = 0.5 mol x 88 g/mol = 44 g
Correct answer is <span>C. They have a full shell of valence electrons. </span>
Each of the following are descriptions of physical properties except C. Flammability
Using electronegativity difference is a good guide to the ionic/ covalent nature. Large differences indicate greater ionic character, small differences more covalent character. The larger the difference in electronegativity the more ionic properties a bond is said to have. The smaller the difference in electronegativity the more covalent properties a bond is said to have.
Ionic bonding is formed through electrostatic attraction between a cation and anion. Foe example, Sodium fluoride has ionic bonding because it is composed by sodium and Fluorine (a non metal). On the other hand, covalent bonding is characterized by atoms sharing pairs of electrons. For example; methane has covalent bonding; carbon has 4 valence electrons and hydrogen has 1; when they bond they have a total of 8 electrons and satisfies the octet rule.
