Please help! Which compound is most likely a covalent compound?

Chemistry

Tpy6a [65]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

A covalent compound is defined as a compound formed by sharing of electrons.

Some properties of covalent compounds are as follows.

  • Covalent compounds have low boiling point and melting point.
  • They are poor conductors of heat and electricity.
  • Covalent compounds are brittle in nature.

On the other hand, ionic compounds are good conductors of heat and electricity. They are malleable and ductile.

Also, ionic compounds show high melting and boiling point.

So out of the given options, properties shown by compound A are similar to the properties shown by a covalent compound.

Thus, we can conclude that compound A is most likely a covalent compound.

2HgO—&gt;2Hg+O2. I start with 46.8 g HgO. What is my theoretical yield of O2?
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Theoretical yield = 3.52 g

Percent yield =65.34%

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of HgO = 46.8 g

Theoretical yield of O₂ = ?

Percent yield of O₂ = ?

Actual yield of O₂ =  2.30 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2HgO  →   2Hg + O₂

Number of moles of HgO = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles of HgO = 46.8 g / 216.6 g/mol

Number of moles of HgO = 0.22 mol

Now we will compare the moles of HgO with oxygen.

                         HgO             :             O₂

                             2               :               1

                            0.22           :          1/2×0.22 = 0.11 mol

Theoretical yield:

Mass of oxygen = number of moles × molar mass

Mass of oxygen =  0.11 mol × 32 g/mol

Mass of oxygen = 3.52 g

Percent yield :

Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield × 100

Percent yield = 2.30 g/ 3.52 g × 100

Percent yield =65.34%

Particles of a suspension will settle while particles of a colloid do not. Why dose this happen?
german

Answer:

The dispersed particles are spread evenly throughout the dispersion medium, which can be a solid, liquid, or gas. Because the dispersed particles of a colloid are not as large as those of a suspension, they do not settle out upon standing.

Hydrogen may not be advantagous as a fuel because-------
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Hydrogen may not be advantageous as a fuel because...

- Its expensive

- Its difficult to store

- Its highly flammable

- Its dependent on fossil fuels

Explanation:

Its expensive - Not only is hydrogen gas expensive, but it also takes a lot of work to free from other elements. It is both expensive and time-consuming to produce.

Its difficult to store - Moving hydrogen is not an easy task. Moving anything more than small amounts of hydrogen was also very expensive, making it impractical.

Its highly flammable - When exposed to the atmosphere, hydrogen could potentially form explosive mixtures.

Its dependent on fossil fuels - Hydrogen energy itself is renewable. However, the process of separating it from oxygen uses non-renewable sources such as coal and oil.
