Answer:
Solution is 4.67% by mass of salt
Explanation:
% by mass is the concentration that defines the mass of solute in 100g of solution.
In this case we have to find out the mass of solution with the data given:
Mass of solution = Mass of solute + Mass of solvent
Solute: Salt → 14.2 g
Solvent: Water → 290 g
Solution's mass = 14.2 g + 290g = 304.2 g
% by mass = (mass of solute / mass of solution) . 100
(14.2 g / 304.2g) . 100 = 4.67 %
The charge of the ion would be +2, because there are 2 more protons than there are electrons. The neutrons don't matter because they have a neutral charge, meaning they are neither positive nor negative.
Answer:
SiH4 is nonpolar and BBr3 is nonpolar and SiF4 is nonpolar.
Explanation:
SiH4 is a non-polar compound. Though the Si–H bonds are polar, as a result of different electronegativities of Si and H. However, as there are 4 electron repulsions around the central Si atom, the polar bonds are arranged symmetrically around the central atom having a tetrahedral shape hence they cancel out making the compound nonpolar.
SiF4 is a nonpolar molecule because the fluorine atoms are arranged symetrically around the central silicon atom in a tetrahedral molecule with all of the regions of negative charge cancelling each other out just like in SiH4.
The 3 bromine atoms all lie in the same plane thus the geometry of the compound will be trigonal planar. The BBr3 will be non polar because the three B-Br bonds will cancel out each others' dipole moment given that they are in the same plane.
