Why do the two electrons spend their time equally between both hydrogen atoms? In other words, why can’t one hydrogen just take

the other’s electron?

Because it is a covalent bond meaning that they share the electrons to achieve full valence.

Why is NH3 soluble in H20 but NCl3 is not?

storchak [24]

NH3 is soluble in water because it has the same amount of intermolecular forces as water. NH3 is a polar molecule and water is a polar molecule so they dissolve each other. NCl3 does not dissolve in water because it is a nonpolar molecule which is different with water. NCl3 is nonpolar due to the difference in electronegativities between 3 atoms of Cl and 1 atom if N2.

Calculate the unit cell edge length for an 85 wt% fe-15 wt% v alloy. All of the vanadium is in solid solution, and, at room temp

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer is 0.289nm.

Explanation: The wt % of Fe and wt % of V is given for a Fe-V alloy.

wt % of Fe in Fe-V alloy = 85%

wt % of V in Fe-V alloy = 15%

We need to calculate edge length of the unit cell having bcc structure.

Using density formula,

$\rho_{ave}=\frac{Z\times M_{ave}}{a^3\times N_A}$

For calculating edge length,

$a=(\frac{Z\times M_{ave}}{\rho_{ave}\times N_A})^{1/3}$

For calculating $M_{ave}$ , we use the formula

$M_{ave}= \frac{100}{\frac{(wt\%)_{Fe}}{M_{Fe}}+\frac{(wt\%)_{V}}{M_V}}$

Similarly for calculating $(\rho)_{ave}$ , we use the formula

$\rho_{ave}= \frac{100}{\frac{(wt\%)_{Fe}}{\rho_{Fe}}+\frac{(wt\%)_{V}}{\rho_V}}$

From the periodic table, masses of the two elements can be written

$M_{Fe}= 55.85g/mol$

$M_{V}=50.941g/mol$

Specific density of both the elements are

$(\rho)_{Fe}=7.874g/cm^3\\(\rho)_{V}=6.10g/cm^3$

Putting $M_{ave}$ and $\rho_{ave}$ formula's in edge length formula, we get

$a=\left [\frac{Z\left (\frac{100}{\frac{(wt\%)_{Fe}}{M_{Fe}}+\frac{(wt\%)_{Fe}}{M_{Fe}}} \right )}{N_A\left (\frac{100}{\frac{(wt\%)_V}{\rho_V}+\frac{(wt\%)_V}{\rho_V}} \right )} \right ]^{1/3}$

$a=\left [\frac{2atoms/\text{unit cell}\left (\frac{100}{\frac{85\%}{55.85g/mol}+\frac{15\%}{50.941g/mol}} \right )}{(6.023\times10^{23}atoms/mol)\left (\frac{100}{\frac{85\%}{7.874g/cm^3}+\frac{15\%}{6.10g/cm^3}} \right )} \right ]^{1/3}$

By calculating, we get

$a=2.89\times10^{-8}cm=0.289nm$
