Based on electronegativity, select the molecule with the most ionic character. Group of answer choices SBr2 OBr2 SeCl2 TeI2 SCl2

1 answer:

Basile [38]3 years ago

4 0

Answer:

OBr₂

Explanation:

<em>The ionic character depends on the difference of electronegativity between the elements. The higher ΔEN, the greater the ionic character.</em>

SBr₂

ΔEN = |EN(S)-EN(Br)| = |2.5-2.8| = 0.3

OBr₂

ΔEN = |EN(O)-EN(Br)| = |3.5-2.8| = 0.7

SeCl₂

ΔEN = |EN(Se)-EN(Cl)| = |2.4-3.0| = 0.6

TeI₂

ΔEN = |EN(Te)-EN(I)| = |2.1-2.5| = 0.4

SCl₂

ΔEN = |EN(S)-EN(Cl)| = |2.5-3.0| = 0.5

OBr₂ is the molecule with the most ionic character.

Which statement accurately describes why air pressure decreases as altitude increases? As you increase altitude the temperature

labwork [276]

Answer:

The correct answer is " As you increase altitude, Earth's gravity is not acting as greatly as when closer to Earth's surface so the weight of air molecules decrease, which also in turn decreases air pressure."

Explanation:

As altitude increases air becomes rarefied. At higher altitudes there is less Earth's gravity acting on the air molecules than at areas close the earth surface. Air pressure is the weight of air acting per unit surface area. At higher altitudes as the weight of air decreases due to reduced gravitational pull the air pressure also decreases.

Which of these statements describes this mathematical equation?

salantis [7]

Answer:

The final pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to the volume change and directly proportional to temperature

Explanation:

Given

$\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = k$

Required

Interpret

$\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = k$

Multiply both sides by T1

$T_1 * \frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = k * T_1$

$P_1V_1 = kT_1$

Divide both sides by V1

$\frac{P_1V_1}{V_1} = \frac{kT_1}{V_1}$

$P_1 = \frac{kT_1}{V_1}$

This can be rewritten as:

$P_1 = k\frac{T_1}{V_1}$

In the above expression; k is a constant of proportionality.

So, the equation can be written as variation as follows:

$P_1\ \alpha\ \ \frac{T_1}{V_1}$

To interpret:

<em>P varies directly to T (the numerator) and inversely to V (the denominator).</em>

When 91.5 g of isopropyl alcohol which has an empirical formula of C3H8O is burned in excess oxygen gas, how many grams of H2O a

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

109.7178g of H2O

Explanation:

First let us generate a balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2C3H8O + 9O2 —> 6CO2 + 8H2O

Next we will calculate the molar mass and masses of C3H8O and H20. This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of C3H8O = (3x12.011) + (8x1.00794) + 15.9994 = 36.033 + 8.06352 + 15.9994 = 60.09592g/mol.

Mass of C3H8O from the balanced equation = 2 x 60.09592 = 120.19184g

Molar Mass of H2O = (2x1.00794) + 15.9994 = 2.01588 + 15.9994 = 18.01528g/mol

Mass of H2O from the balanced equation = 8 x 18.01528 = 144.12224g

From the equation,

120.19184g of C3H8O produced 144.12224g of H20.

Therefore, 91.5g of C3H8O will produce = (91.5 x 144.12224) /120.19184 = 109.7178g of H2O

when you draw a bow across a violin string which kind of wave is created in the air surrounding the string

Lilit [14]

Answer:

When the string on a violin vibrates, waves move in both directions along the string, interfering with each other. These waves are standing waves.

Explanation:

What are Standing Waves?

The Standing Waves are waves generated due to the vibrational frequency that produces reflected waves capable of interfering with the incident waves.
