mylen [45]3 years ago
6 0

<u>Answer:</u> The correct option is A) a nitrogen molecule.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Polar covalent molecules are defined as chemical compounds in which the difference in electronegativity between the atoms is not equal to 0. These molecules are formed by heteronuclear molecules.

Heteronuclear molecules are defined as the molecules which are formed by the combination of more than one type of atom having a different nucleus.

Non-polar covalent molecules are defined as chemical compounds in which the difference in electronegativity between the atoms is equal to 0. These molecules are formed by homonuclear molecules.

Homonuclear molecules are defined as the molecules which are formed by the combination of one type of atom having the same nucleus.

From the given options:

  • A) A nitrogen molecule

It is a homonuclear molecule formed by the combination of 2 nitrogen atoms

  • B) A nitrogen monoxide molecule

It is a heteronuclear molecule formed by the combination of 1 nitrogen and 1 oxygen atoms

  • C) A linear nitrogen oxide molecule (N_2O) with nitrogen in the center

It is a heteronuclear molecule formed by the combination of 2 nitrogen and 1 oxygen atom and has some dipole moment. Thus, is considered a polar molecule

  • D) A bent nitrogen dioxide molecule (NO_2) with nitrogen in the center

It is a heteronuclear molecule formed by the combination of 1 nitrogen and 2 oxygen atoms and has some dipole moment. Thus, is considered a polar molecule

Hence, the correct option is A) a nitrogen molecule.

labwork [276]
Hi!

When titrating Calcium and Water solution, if there is some CaCO3 in the solution, the following reactions may occur in acid solution:

CaCO₃ + H⁺ → Ca⁺² + HCO₃⁻

HCO₃⁻ + H⁺ ↔ H₂CO₃ → CO₂ (g) + H₂O

The bubbles are from CO₂ that is being developed from an acidic solution of CaCO₃

How many molecules of N204 are in 85.0 g of N2O4?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

5.56 × 10^23 molecules

Explanation:

The number of molecules in a molecule can be calculated by multiplying the number of moles in that molecule by Avagadro's number (6.02 × 10^23)

Using mole = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of N2O4 = 14(2) + 16(4)

= 28 + 64

= 92g/mol

mole = 85.0/92

= 0.9239

= 0.924mol

number of molecules of N2O4 (nA) = 0.924 × 6.02 × 10^23

= 5.56 × 10^23 molecules
