Why is oxygen more electronegative than nitrogen​

Chemistry

Verizon [17]3 years ago

Answer:

<em>Oxygen has 8 protons in the nucleus while nitrogen only has 7. A bonding pair will experience more attraction from the oxygen's nucleus than from nitrogen's, and so the electronegativity of oxygen is greater.</em>

Why is oxygen more electronegative than nitrogen? Oxygen has 8 protons in the nucleus while nitrogen only has 7. A bonding pair will experience more attraction from the oxygen's nucleus than from nitrogen's, and so the electronegativity of oxygen is greater.

When 18.0 mL of a 8.43×10-4 M cobalt(II) fluoride solution is combined with 22.0 mL of a 9.72×10-4 M sodium hydroxide solution d
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Q = 1.08x10⁻¹⁰

Yes, precipitate is formed.

Explanation:

The reaction of CoF₂ with NaOH is:

CoF₂(aq) + 2 NaOH(aq) ⇄ Co(OH)₂(s) + 2 NaF(aq).

The solubility product of the precipitate produced, Co(OH)₂, is:

Co(OH)₂(s) ⇄ Co²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq)

And Ksp is:

Ksp = 3x10⁻¹⁶= [Co²⁺][OH⁻]²

Molar concentration of both ions is:

[Co²⁺] = 0.018Lₓ (8.43x10⁻⁴mol / L) / (0.018 + 0.022)L = <em>3.79x10⁻⁴M</em>

[OH⁻] = 0.022Lₓ (9.72x10⁻⁴mol / L) / (0.018 + 0.022)L = <em>5.35x10⁻⁴M</em>

Reaction quotient under these concentrations is:

Q = [3.79x10⁻⁴M] [5.35x10⁻⁴M]²

<em>Q = 1.08x10⁻¹⁰</em>

As Q > Ksp, <em>the equilibrium will shift to the left producing Co(OH)₂(s) </em>the precipitate

What is one chemical reaction that begins with petroleum as a starting material
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Thermal decomposition or cracking

Explanation:

Petroleum is a mixture of hydrocarbons which are usually formed naturally. Petroleum undergo a host of chemical reactions. One of such is thermal decomposition or cracking.

Cracking is used in the petroleum industry to covert heavy fractions to more useful lighter ones.

When petroleum is subjected to high temperature and pressure, and in the presence of catalyst, the long chain type of petroleum will decompose into more useful smaller and lighter molecules.

Example is given below:

                  C₁₅H₃₂ → C₈H₁₈ + C₃H₆ + 2C₂H₄

Which of the following represents a propagation step in the monochlorination of methylene chloride (CH2Cl2)?a. CHCl3 + Cl. Right
svetlana [45]

Answer:

B = CHCl2 + Cl2 --> CHCl3 + Cl

Explanation:

Free radical halogenation is a chlorination reaction on Alkane hydrocarbons. This involves the splitting of molecules into radicals/ unstable molecules in the presence of sunlight/ U.V light which ensures bonding of the molecules.

Free radical chlorination is divided into 3 steps which are:

The initiation step

The propagation step

The termination step

So in reference to the question, propagation step involves two steps.

The first step is where the molecule in this case the methylene chloride(CH2Cl2) loses a hydrogen atom and then bond with a chlorine atom radical to give a nethylwnw chloride radical and HCl.

The second step involves the reaction of this methylene chloride got in the first step with chlorine molecule to form trichloride methane and a chlorine radical.

You would find in the attachment the 2 step mechanism.
