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

Chemistry

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.

What is the hydrophobic effect? what types of atoms are most likely to be found in portions of molecules or entire molecules tha
HACTEHA [7]
Hydrophobic in simple terms is the "fear" of water.

In chemistry, Ionic salts are technically hydrophilic as they will dissolve in water.
most fats and oils or triesters won't why?

salts are made from ions and their structure contain polar bonds Na+ and Cl-
Fats and oils tend to not have these.

Fats and oils contain many carbon covalent bonds which are non-polar which tend to make the molecule non-polar as a whole, therefore, it can't dissolve in water and is said to be hydrophobic.

Hope that heps :)

Why chlorine has high electroaffinity than flourine​
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Fluorine has seven electrons in 2p-subshell whereas chlorine has seven electrons in its 3p-subshell. 3p-subshell is relatively larger than 2p-subshell. Therefore, repulsion among the electrons will be more in the 2p-shell of fluorine than 3p-subshell in chlorine.  Due to the smaller size and thus, the greater electron-electron repulsions, fluorine will not accept an incoming electron with the same as chlorine.

how the various concentrations of acid will affect the amount of limestone that is dissolved from each jar.
schepotkina [342]

The explanation of the how the various concentrations of acid will affect the amount of limestone has been given below.

Effects of acid rain on limestone:-

  • When an acid combines with a carbonate, it produces carbon dioxide as a gas and forms a salt that is soluble in the carbonate and acid's water.
  • There are several gases in the atmosphere that can dissolve in precipitation such as rain and snow.
  • Some may produce acids in rain water, such as carbonic acid, sulfuric acid, and nitric acid.
  • Because the concentration is modest, the rain is not highly acidic, but it is acidic enough to react with the carbonates that make up limestone.

Thus we discussed the affects of acid rain on limestones above.
