Answer:

<em>Ionic</em><em> </em>

If something is a hard solid, that can dissolve in water, and has a high melting point are ionic substances, because they are hard solids due to strong electrostatic force between particles and and they have high melting points because of their strong attraction between the particles which needed more energy in order to break down and melt .....

their one property is to dissolve in water because they are generally non polar which dissolves easily in polar liquids like water.

Convert CH4 to C2H6?<br> Dehydration of alcohol by conc. H2SO4.....?
umka21 [38]

Answer:

1.

CH4 + Cl2 → CH3-Cl + HCl

2CH3-Cl +2Na → C2H6

2.

CH3-CH2-OH ---(conc. H2SO4)----> CH2=CH2 + H2O

Explanation:

1. Conversion of methane to ethane

Step 1 - Treat methane with chlorine gas presence of ultraviolet light

CH4 + Cl2 → CH3-Cl + HCl

Step 2 - Treat chloromethane formed in step 1 with the sodium metal and dry ether  (Wrutz synthesis)

2CH3-Cl +2Na → C2H6

2. On treating ethanol with excess of concentrated sulfuric acid, it converts into ethene

CH3-CH2-OH ---(conc. H2SO4)----> CH2=CH2 + H2O

put the contributions to the understanding of the atomic structure in order from most recent at the top to the earliest at the b
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

From Top to Bottom:

- Democritus coming up with the concept of an atom

- Dalton discovering that atoms are the smallest part of an element

- Rutherford discovering the nucleus of an atom

- Thomson discovering electrons

- Bohr modeling electrons orbiting the nucleus

- Schrodinger modeling electrons in the electron cloud

Explanation:

The best way to think about this is from the inside out. Democrats (who lived long before any of the other scientists mentioned) was the one who thought of the idea of the atom. - Therefore, this must be first because all other choices are elaborations on the idea that atoms exist. Next must be Dalton. Dalton saw atoms as "cannonballs" if you will; a solid mass. So then after that, Rutherford and his gold foil experiment (he discovered that some rays he shot through gold foil were deflected back; ie the existence of concentrated areas in an atom, ie the nucleus). Then we get into the information on electrons. We must start with discovery (Thomson). Heres where it gets complicated. Electrons don't <em>actually </em>orbit the nucleus, they exist in electron clouds. So it would be Bohr, who came up with the idea that electron exist outside the nucleus, then Schrodinger, who elaborated on Bohr's theory. Hope this helps!

If phosphorous has 5 valence electrons, how many does sulfur have?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

6

Explanation:

The atomic number for phosphorous is 15, meaning that it has 15 electrons (and protons). The first and second shells would be filled up with 2 and 8 electrons respectively, leaving 5 which goes on the third shell, which is also the valence shell, meaning phosphorous has 5 valence electrons.

Since the atomic number of sulfur is 16, the first and second shells are also filled up with 2 and 8 electrons respectively, leaving 6 to be on the third shell, the valence shell. Hence, sulfur has 6 valence electrons.

Chemical reaction when chromium metal is immersed in an aqueous solution of cobalt(II) chloride.
Marrrta [24]

2Cr + 3CoCl_2→ 2CrCl_3 + 3Co

Explanation:

  • The products formed are chromic chloride and cobalt.

        Chromium + Cobaltous Chloride = Chromic Chloride + Cobalt

  • Type  of reaction is Single Displacement (Substitution) which is there is a displacement of one atom.

Reactants used in the reaction are -

  • Chromium(Cr)
  • Cobaltous Chloride (CoCl_2)

Products formed in the reaction are -

  • Chromic Chloride(CrCl_3)
  • Cobalt (Co)

Hence, the chemical reaction is as follows -

  • Cr + CoCl_2 →CrCl_3 + Co

For balancing the above chemical equation we need to add a coefficient of 2 in front of chromium and of 3 in front of cobalt(II)chloride on right-hand-side while of 2 in front of chromium chloride and of 3 in front of carbon monoxide on left-hand-side of the equation.

Hence, the balanced equation is -

2Cr + 3CoCl_2→ 2CrCl_3 + 3Co
