Which one of the following compounds is not covalent?

Chemistry
2 answers:
denpristay [2]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

KCl

Explanation:

Hello,

Potassium chloride is well-known as an ionic compound owing to the shown-below greater-than-1.7 difference between the electronegativities of potassium and chlorine:

\Delta E=E_{Cl}-E_K=3.16-0.82\\\Delta E=2.34

This is by cause of the fact that such compounds that have a difference in the constituent elements' electronegativities greater than 1.7 are considered as ionic.

Best regards.

KCI is not a covalent compound, it is an ionic compound. 
A covalent compound is one in which each of the atoms involved contribute a specific number of electrons for sharing in order to from stable compound while an ionic compound is a compound formed when one atom donates electron to the other atom in the compound, in order to attain stability.  The compounds given in options A, B and D shared electrons while in KCl, potassium donates an electron to chlorine.

Which of the following is TRUE? a neutral solution does not contain any H3O+ or OH- a neutral solution contains [H2O] = [H3O+] a
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Options B and C

Explanation:

Let's take a look at the options and get our answer by way of elimination. The basic definition of a neutral solution is given as;

A neutral solution is a substance which is neither acid nor basic . it has a PH of 7. it will have equal amount of H+ AND OH- ions in it.

a) a neutral solution does not contain any H3O+ or OH- This is wrong because take water as an example, it is neutral but contains both ions.

b) a neutral solution contains [H2O] = [H3O+]. This option is correct cause it is in line with the definition above.

c) an acidic solution has [H3O⁺] > [OH⁻]. Acidic solutions are any solution that has a higher concentration of hydrogen ions than water. This option is correct.

d) a basic solution does not contain any H3O⁺. This option is wrong. Basic solutions are any solution that has a higher concentration of hydroxide ions than water. This means they contain H3O⁺ but  [OH⁻] is greater.

a piece of food is burned in a calorimeter that contains 200.0g of water. If the temperature of the water rose from 65.0°C to 83
Flauer [41]

Answer: 15062.4 Joules

Explanation:

The quantity of heat energy (Q) required to heat a substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Since,

Q = ?

Mass of food = 200.0g

C = 4.184 j/g°C

Φ = (Final temperature - Initial temperature)

= 83.0°C - 65.0°C = 18°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

Q = 200.0g x 4.184 j/g°C x 18°C

Q = 15062.4 J

Thus, 15062.4 joules of heat energy was contained in the food.
