Answer:

D. Nonmetals with nonmetals, because of difference in electronegativity is below 1.7

Explanation:

The types of atoms that typically form covalent bonds are non-metals with non-metals because of the difference in their electronegativity which is below 1.7.

In some instances, the difference can even be zero when dealing with homonuclear substances.

Covalent bond are formed between two or more atoms having low electronegativity differences between them.
Each of the atoms share their valence electrons to be able to mimic the noble gases.
The participating atoms will put down an unpaired electron to be used in forming a shared pair of electrons between them.

Data:
$M_{concentrated} = 2.5\:mol$
$V_{concentrated} = ?$
$M_{dilute} = 0.50\:mol$
$V_{dilute} = 100\:mL\to0.100\:L$

Formula: Dilution Calculations

 $M_{concentrated} * V_{concentrated} = M_{dilute} * V_{dilute}$

Solving:


$M_{concentrated} * V_{concentrated} = M_{dilute} * V_{dilute}$
$2.5 * V_{concentrated} = 0.50 * 0.100$
$2.5V_{concentrated} = 0.05$
$V_{concentrated} = \frac{0.05}{2.5}$
$\boxed{\boxed{V_{concentrated} = 0.02\:L\:or\:20\:mL}} \end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

Answer: The metal having molar mass equal to 26.95 g/mol is Aluminium

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$ .....(1)

Molarity of NaOH solution = 0.5000 M

Volume of solution = 0.03340 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.5000M=\frac{\text{Moles of NaOH}}{0.03340L}\\\\\text{Moles of NaOH}=(0.5000mol/L\times 0.03340L)=0.01670mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of NaOH and sulfuric acid follows:

$2NaOH+H_2SO_4\rightarrow Na_2SO_4+H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of sulfuric acid

So, 0.01670 moles of NaOH will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.01670=0.00835mol$ of sulfuric acid

Excess moles of sulfuric acid = 0.00835 moles

Calculating the moles of sulfuric acid by using equation 1, we get:

Molarity of sulfuric acid solution = 0.5000 M

Volume of solution = 127.9 mL = 0.1279 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.5000M=\frac{\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4}{0.1279L}\\\\\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4=(0.5000mol/L\times 0.1279L)=0.06395mol$

Number of moles of sulfuric acid reacted = 0.06395 - 0.00835 = 0.0556 moles

The chemical equation for the reaction of metal (forming $M^{3+}$ ion) and sulfuric acid follows:

$2X+3H_2SO_4\rightarrow X_2(SO_4)_3+3H_2$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

3 moles of sulfuric acid reacts with 2 moles of metal

So, 0.0556 moles of sulfuric acid will react with = $\frac{2}{3}\times 0.0556=0.0371mol$ of metal

To calculate the molar mass of metal for given number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Mass of metal = 1.00 g

Moles of metal = 0.0371 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.0371mol=\frac{1.00g}{\text{Molar mass of metal}}\\\\\text{Molar mass of metal}=\frac{1.00g}{0.0371mol}=26.95g/mol$

Hence, the metal having molar mass equal to 26.95 g/mol is Aluminium

Explain the difference between a theory and scientific law

Ksju [112]

Theory- a supposition or a system of ideas intended to explain something, especially one based on general principles independent of the thing to be explained.

Scientific law- a statement based on repeated experimental observations that describes some aspect of the universe.
