Describe the range of the radii of most atoms

1 answer:

8 0

The radii of most atoms are actually measured in the Ǻ, or Angstrom. We can do it in nanometers too, however.
First, we take the radius of the smallest atom, He (Helium). Atomic radius = .031 nm. The largest atom, stable atom is Fr (Francium), with atomic radius = .27 nm. 
Therefore, the typical atomic radius is between .031 and .27 nm.

Covalent bond of N and S

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Covalent bond between identical atoms

Covalent bonds occur between identical atoms or between different atoms whose difference in electronegativity is insufficient to allow transfer of electrons to form ions. ... The two hydrogen atoms are attracted to the same pair of electrons in the covalent bond.

Which liquid has the highest vapor pressure at 75°C?

Temka [501]

Answer:

1) Ethanol

Explanation:

If we will have interactions we will need more energy to break them in order to go from liquid to gas. If we need more energy, therefore, the temperature will be higher.

In this case, we can discard the propanone because this molecule don't have the ability to form hydrogen bonds. (Let's remember that to have hydrogen bonds we need to have a hydrogen bond to a heteroatom, O, N, P or S).

Then we have to analyze the hydrogen bonds formed in the other molecules. For ethanol, we will have only 1 hydrogen bond. For water and ethanoic acid, we will have 2 hydrogen bonds, therefore, we can discard the ethanol.

For ethanoic acid, we have 2 intramolecular hydrogen bonds. For water we have 2 intermolecular hydrogen bonds, therefore, the strongest interaction will be in the ethanoic acid.

The closer boiling point to the 75ºC is the ethanol (boiling point of 78.8 ºC) therefore these molecules would have enough energy to break the hydrogen bonds and to past from liquid to gas.

Are the charges in Li2O balanced yes o No?

motikmotik

Answer: For example, the Li 2 O content of the principal lithium mineral spodumene (LiAlSi 2 O 6) is 8.03%. Burning lithium metal produces lithium oxide. Lithium oxide is produced by the thermal decomposition of lithium peroxide at 300-400°C.

Reduction is a reaction which results in a __1____ in electrons and a __2____ in positive charge of the atom or ion

mestny [16]

Hello! Your answer would be a gain of electrons and a decrease in positive charge.

Contrary to how it sounds, reduction is actually a gain of electrons. It is part of a set of reactions known as a redox reaction, reduction being a gain of electrons and oxidation being a loss.

With the gain of electrons, the element would become more negative as electrons bring with them a negative charge. Therefore, this would decrease the positive charge.

Hope this helped!
