Which way would CCI2F2 orient in an electric field?

Chemistry
1 answer:
ArbitrLikvidat [17]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

In looking at molecules to determine whether they are polar or not we have to look at two things basically;

i) presence of polar bonds

ii) geometry of the molecule

Now, we know that CCI2F2 is a tetrahedral molecule, but the molecule is not symmetrical. It has four polar bonds that are not all the same hence the molecule is polar.

In an electric field, polar molecules orient themselves in such a way that  the positive ends of the molecule are being attracted to the negative plate while the negative ends of the molecules are attracted to the positive plate.

So the positive ends of CCI2F2  are oriented towards the negative plate of the field while the negative ends of CCI2F2 are oriented towards the positive ends of the field.

If the half-life of hydrogen-3 is 11.8 years, after two half-lives the radioactivity of a sample will be reduced to one-half of
maw [93]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Half life is the time period at which the concentration of the radioactive substance in decay reduced to half.

<u>Thus, if the hydrogen-3 has gone 2 half lives, it means that it has first reduced to its half and then again the half of what it was, i.e. 1/4</u>

Thus, after two successive half-lives, the concentration must be 1/4 of the initial concentration and hence, the statement is false.

Gas is heated from 480. K to 750. K and the pressure is kept constant, what final volume would result if the original volume was
attashe74 [19]
Charles law gives the relationship between volume and temperature of gas.
It states that at constant pressure volume is directly proportional to temperature
Therefore
V/ T = k
Where V - volume T - temperature in kelvin and k - constant
V1/T1 = V2/T2
Parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation
Substituting the values in the equation
267 L/ 480 K = V / 750 K
V = 417 L
Final volume is 417 L
