What is Brownian motion

1 answer:

4 0

It’s basically a physical phenomena constantly undergoing small, random fluctuations. What causes Brownian motion is because they are bombarded by other moving particles in the fluid. The larger particles can be moved by light, fast-moving molecules.

Rank the members of each set of compounds according to the ionic character of their bonds. Most ionic bonds?a) PCl3 PBr3 PF3 Mos

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Explanation:

More is the electronegativity difference between the combining atoms more polar is the compound. Hence, more ionic it will be in nature.

(a) Electronegativity value of P = 2.19

Electronegativity value of Cl = 3.16

Electronegativity value of Br = 2.96

Electronegativity value of F = 3.98

Electronegativity difference of a P-Cl bond = 3.16 - 2.19 = 0.97

Electronegativity difference of a P-Br bond = 2.96 - 2.19 = 0.77

Electronegativity difference of a P-F bond = 3.98 - 2.19 = 1.79

Since, a P-F bond has the highest electronegativity difference. Therefore, $PF_{3}$ is the most ionic compound and $PBr_{3}$ is the least ionic compound.

(b) Electronegativity value of B = 2.04

Electronegativity value of N = 3.04

Electronegativity value of C = 2.55

Electronegativity value of F = 3.98

Electronegativity difference of a B-F bond = 3.98 - 2.04 = 1.94

Electronegativity difference of a N-F bond = 3.04 - 3.98 = 0.94

Electronegativity difference of a C-F bond = 3.98 - 2.55 = 1.43

Since, a B-F bond has the highest electronegativity difference. Therefore, $BF_{3}$ is the most ionic compound and $NF_{3}$ is the least ionic compound.

(c) Electronegativity value of Se = 2.55

Electronegativity value of Te = 2.1

Electronegativity value of Br = 2.96

Electronegativity value of F = 3.98

Electronegativity difference of a Se-F bond = 3.98 - 2.55 = 1.43

Electronegativity difference of a Te-F bond = 3.98 - 2.1 = 1.88

Electronegativity difference of a Br-F bond = 3.98 - 2.19 = 1.02

Since, a Te-F bond has the highest electronegativity difference. Therefore, $TeF_{4}$ is the most ionic compound and $BrF_{3}$ is the least ionic compound.

Sulfuryl chloride is in equilibrium with sulfur dioxide and chlorine gas: so2cl2(g) so2(g) + cl2(g) a system with a volume of 1.

Bess [88]

Answer:

Sulfuryl chloride decreases by -1/21 (-4.76%) (option c)

Explanation:

Denoting

sc= so2cl2(g)

s=so2(g)

c=cl2(g)

Assuming that the compression is an isothermal process , then reaction equilibrium constant in terms of pressure does not change

Kp= psc/ps*pc =

where p= partial pressures

Assuming ideal behaviour , then from Dalton's law,

Xsc₁=psc₁/P₁= psc₁/P₁ = 1 bar/(1 bar + 0.1 bar + 0.1 bar) = 5/6

Xs=ps₁/P₁ = 0.1/1.2=1/12

Xc=pc₁/P₁ = 0.1/1.2=1/12

since Xs=Xc → the reaction started as pure Sulfuryl chloride . Then representing ξ as the extent of reaction and n as the moles

nsc=nsc₀*(1-ξsc) , ns=nsc₀*ξsc , nc=nsc₀*ξsc → n=nsc +ns +nc = nsc₀*(1+ξsc)

therefore

Xs₁=ns₁/n₁=ξsc₁/(1+ξsc₁) → Xs₁*ξsc₁+Xs₁=ξsc₁ → ξsc₁=Xs₁/(1-Xs₁) = (1/12)/(11/12)= 1/11

then from the ideal gas law

ps₁*V₁=ns₁*R*T

after the reduction

ps₂V₂=ns₂*R*T

dividing both equations

(ps₂/ps₁)*(V₂/V₁)=(ns₂/ns₁)=nsc₀*ξsc₂/(nsc₀*ξsc₁) = ξsc₂/ξsc₁

ps₂ = ps₁ * (V₁/V₂) * (ξsc₂/ξsc₁)

since

psc₁*V₁=nsc₁*R*T , psc₂V₂=nsc₂*R*T → psc₂ = psc₁ * (V₁/V₂) * (1-ξsc₂)/(1-ξsc₁)

also knowing that

Kp= psc₁/ps₁² = psc₂/ps₂²

psc₂/ps₂² = psc₁/ps₁² * (V₁/V₂) * (1-ξsc₂)/(1-ξsc₁) / [(V₁/V₂) * (ξsc₂/ξsc₁) ]² =

1 = (V₂/V₁)(1-ξsc₂)*ξsc₁/ [(1-ξsc₁)*ξsc₂]

replacing ξsc₁= 1/11

1 = (V₂/V₁)(1-ξsc₂)/ξsc₂ *(1/10)

10 = (V₂/V₁)* (1/ξsc₂-1) → ξsc₂ = 1/(10*(V₁/V₂)+1)

therefore the extent of reaction varies with the volume reduction according to

ξsc₂ = 1/(10*(V₁/V₂)+1)

since V₁/V₂=2

ξsc₂ = 1/(10*2+1) = 1/21

therefore the decrease in moles of Sulfuryl chloride is

Δnsc/nsc₁ = (ξsc₂-ξsc₁)/(1-ξsc₁) = (1/21-1/11)/(10/11)= (11/21-1)/10 = -1/21 (-4.76%)

The size of the gas particles compared to the overall volume of the gas is 22.4 L

jeka57 [31]

Well. Yeah. Basically.

1 mole of any gas is 22.4 L.

Not really sure if that answers your question but that's what i know.
Anyway if we are talking about the size then usually gases are filled with empty space.

A scientist has a container with a substance inside. At first, the molecules in the substance move away from each other. Later,

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Base on the properties the substances possess the substance change phase from gas to liquid.

Explanation:

Generally, matter can exist in three phase namely liquid , solid and gas. The scientist has a container with a substance inside.

At first the substance moves away from each other . This means the substance was first in the gas phase . Gas molecules, because of the energy they possess , it can move rapidly and randomly and most at times move away from each other . The gas molecules tends to fill the whole volume of the container and the shape of gases are indefinite.

Later the molecules move around each other. This is a property of a liquid . A substance in liquid phase have the ability to move freely but they stay together because of the force of attraction holding them together . The substance only have the ability to move around each other because the forces holding them together won't allow them to move apart.

Base on the properties the substances possess the substance change phase from gas to liquid.
