In table below, there are descriptions of an experiment on samples of three different chemical compounds. Decide whether the com

pound is ionic or molecular, if you can. If there is not enough information to decide, choose can't decide in the third column.
compound description ionic or molecular
1 Compound 1 is a light gray solid made of
overlapping hexagonal crystals. When heated gently it
starts to soften and develop an unpleasant smell about
50 °C. above room temperature.
2 Compound 2 is a dull white smooth solid which does not
conduct electricity. Applying an ordinary laboratory burner
to the material only makes the substance hot, it does not
otherwise change. In fact, the substance can't be melted
or even softed by any ordinary laboratory equipment.
3 Compound 3 is a clear liquid with a strong pleasantly
fruity smell. If cooled it freezes at about -10 °C. In the
solid state it does not conduct electricity.

Answer:

Compound 1 is molecular

Compound 2 is ionic

Compound 3 can't really be decided

Explanation:

A molecular substance does not conduct electricity, has very low melting and boiling points and is held together by very weak intermolecular forces.

An ionic substance conducts electricity in solution or in molten state but never in the pure solid state, has a high melting and boiling point and has a dull appearance most times.

Compounds 1 shows the properties of molecular substances hence it are designated as such.

On the other hand, compound 2 shows the properties of an ionic substance and is also designated as such.

We can't really decide on compound 3 because it shows some properties of ionic substances and some properties of molecular substances.

How many significant digits does the number 700 have?
OLga [1]

Answer: 700 has one significant figure which is 7.

Explanation: These are some rules for significant figures

•All non-zero digits are significant: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

•Zero between non-zero digits are significant: They are three significant figures in 203.

•Leading zeros are not significant: There are two significant figures in 0.56.

•Trailing zero to the right of decimal are significant. There are four significant figures in 62.00

•Trailing zeros in a whole number with the decimal shown are significant: This makes "700." three significant figures.

•Trailing zeros in a whole number with no decimal shown are not significant: This makes 700 one significant figure.

Given the number of a substance , how do you solve for the number of a moles of a substance
chubhunter [2.5K]
Given the number of a substance, we can solve the number of moles by using a conversion factor that would relate the number of a substance to the number of moles. In any case, Avogadro's number would be used. It <span>represents the number of units in one mole of any substance. This has the value of 6.022 x 10^23 units / mole. This number can be used to convert the number of atoms or molecules into number of moles. For example, we are given 1.23 x 10^24 atoms of a substance converting it to moles we do as follows:

 </span>1.23 x 10^24 atoms ( 1 mol / 6.022x10^23 atoms ) = 2.04 moles
