Which of the following is more electronegative:

Firdavs [7]

The answer is 1) CF3
Because: the equivalent of Fluorine is -1 so it aims to get an electron so much. which means it's electronegative.
but the equivalent of Hydrogen is +1 so it aims to give an electron. which means it's electropositive.

Write and balance the half-reaction for the oxidation of white phosphorous P4 to the phosphate ion PO3^−4 in a basic solution.

aalyn [17]

Since the half-reaction is occurring in a basic solution, add 32OH− to each side of the equation to eliminate the H+ ions.

P₄ +16H₂O + 32OH⁻ ⟶ 4PO₃⁻⁴ + 32H⁺ +32OH⁻

Final reaction :

P₄ + 32OH⁻ ⟶ 4PO₃⁻⁴ + 16H₂O + 20e⁻

A half reaction is either the oxidation or reduction reaction component of a redox reaction. A half reaction is obtained by considering the change in oxidation states of individual substances involved in the redox reaction.

The concept of half-reactions is used to describe what occurs in an electrochemical cell, such as a Galvanic cell battery. Half-reactions can be written to describe both the metal undergoing oxidation (known as the anode) and the metal undergoing reduction (known as the cathode).

Half-reactions are often used as a method of balancing redox reactions. For oxidation-reduction reactions in acidic conditions, after balancing the atoms and oxidation numbers, one will need to add H+ ions to balance the hydrogen ions in the half reaction.

For oxidation-reduction reactions in basic conditions, after balancing the atoms and oxidation numbers, first treat it as an acidic solution and then add OH- ions to balance the H+ ions in the half reactions (which would give H2O).

The mole fraction of a non-electrolyte (MM 40.0 g/mol) in a saturated aqueous solution is 0.310. What is the molality of the sol

jeka57 [31]

Answer: The molality of non-electrolyte is 24.69 m

Explanation:

We are given:

Mole fraction of saturated aqueous solution = 0.310

This means that 0.310 moles of non-electrolyte is present.

Moles of water (solvent) = 1 - 0.310 = 0.690 moles

To calculate the mass from given number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Moles of water = 0.690 moles

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.690mol=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{18g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of water}=(0.690mol\times 18g/mol)=12.42g$

To calculate the molality of solution, we use the equation:

$\text{Molality}=\frac{n_{solute}\times 1000}{W_{solvent}\text{ (in grams)}}$

Where,

$n_{solute}$ = Moles of solute (non-electrolyte) = 0.310 moles

$W_{solvent}$ = Mass of solvent (water) = 12.42 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Molality of non-electrolyte}=\frac{0.310\times 1000}{12.42}\\\\\text{Molality of non-electrolyte}=24.96m$

Hence, the molality of non-electrolyte is 24.69 m
