Answer: 2) Electron X absorbs energy when it changes to a higher energy level.

Explanation:

The electrons in an atom exist in various energy levels. When an electron moves from a lower energy level to a higher energy level, energy is absorbed by the atom. When an electron moves from a higher to a lower energy level, energy is released (often as light).

Which of the following reactions is spontaneous?

AveGali [126]

Answer is: lumps os sugar dissolving in water.
Sugar has very good solubility in water and it dissolves readily, which is example of a physical change.
Gibbs free energy (G) determines if reaction will proceed spontaneously, if ΔG is negative, reaction is spontaneous (ΔG = ΔH - T·ΔS).
In other examples, reactions are spontaneous in reverse way, for example spontaneous is forming sodium chlorine from sodium metal and chlorine gas, but not sodium chloride forming sodium metal and chlorine gas, because a lot of energy is needed for that reaction.

What is the mass of 3.6 x 1024 atoms of Zinc (Zn)?

AlladinOne [14]

Answer is: mass od zinc is 392,28 g.
N(Zn) = 3,6·10²⁴.
n(Zn) = N(Zn) ÷ Na.
n(Zn) = 3,6·10²⁴ ÷ 6·10²³ 1/mol.
n(Zn) = 6 mol.
m(Zn) = n(Zn) · M(Zn).
m(Zn) = 6 mol · 65,38 g/mol.
m(Zn) = 392,28 g.
Na - Avogadro number.
n - amount of substance.
M - molar mass.

Problem page in each of the molecules drawn below one chemical bond is colored red. decide whether this bond is likely to be pol

Slav-nsk [51]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Problem page in each of the molecules drawn below one chemical bond is colored red. Decide whether this bond is likely to be polar or not. if the bond is likely to be polar, write down the chemical symbol for the atom which will have more negative charge.

The image is attached below.

Answer:

For carbon dioxide molecule: The bond is considered as polar and the elecvtronegative atom is oxygen.

For water molecule: The bond is considered as polar and the elecvtronegative atom is oxygen.

Explanation:

There are two types of covalent bonds:

Polar covalent bond: This bond is formed when difference in electronegativity between the atoms is present. When atoms of different elements combine, it results in the formation of polar covalent bond. For Example: $CO_2,NO_2$ etc..
Non-polar covalent bond: This bond is formed when there is no difference in electronegativity between the atoms. When atoms of the same element combine, it results in the formation of non-polar covalent bond. For Example: $N_2,O_2$ etc..

In carbon dioxide molecule:

The given bond is present between C and O atom.

Electronegativity value of C = 2.5

Electronegativity value of O = 3.5

Electronegativity difference = (3.5 - 2.5) = 1

As, electronegativity difference is present. So, the bond is considered as polar and the elecvtronegative atom is oxygen.

In water molecule:

The given bond is present between H and O atom.

Electronegativity value of H = 2.1

Electronegativity value of O = 3.5

Electronegativity difference = (3.5 - 2.1) = 1.4

As, electronegativity difference is present. So, the bond is considered as polar and the elecvtronegative atom is oxygen.

The strength of an acid is affected by the polarity of the bond connected to the acidic hydrogen. The more highly polarized this

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Oxyacids are acid containing oxygen; they are also known as acid-alcohol or acid-phenol. As said earlier, the strength of these acids increases with increases in the polarity of these compounds. So, what makes the polarity is as a result of the electronegative substituents attached to it. Halogen family possesses the highest electronegativity in the periodic table, and electronegativity decreases down the group.

The ranking of the oxyacids in order of decreasing acid strength from strongest to weakest acid is:

HClO3 > . HClO2 > HClO > HBrO
