Explanation:

Binary acids are molecular compounds that consists of two components.

The components are Hydrogen and a non metal. Examples of binary acids include; HCl, HF etc.

The way to identify binary acids is to spot the hydrogen and the non metal.

Analysis of the water content of a lake found in the desert showed that it contained 17.5 percent chloride ion, and has a densit

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

The molarity is 6.0 M.

Explanation:

The concentration of a solution is the amount of solute present in a given amount of solvent, or a given amount of solution.

In this problem, we are asked to convert percent by mass to molarity, which are two different concentration units.

The percent by mass is the ratio of the mass of a solute to the mass of the solution, multiplied by 100 percent. On the other hand, molarity (M) is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

If we have 17.15 percent chloride ion, that means that we have 17.15 grams of chloride ion in 100 grams of solution. The density provided is the density of the solution, so we calculate how many mL correspond to 100 grams of solution:

1.23 g ----------- 1 mL

100 g ------------ x= 81.3 mL

Therefore, 17.5 grams of chloride ion are contained in 81.3 mL. Now we need to convert these grams into moles.

The atomic mass of chlorine is 35.5 g/mol:

35.5 g --------------- 1 mol

17.5 g --------------- x= 0. 49 mol

This 0.49 moles are contained in 81.13 mL, the definition of molarity says that this moles are contained in a liter (or what is the same, 1000 mL):

81.3 mL --------------- 0.49 mol

1000 mL ------------- x= 6.0 M

The molarity of the chloride ion will be 6.0 M.

Using the molecular orbital model to describe the bond- ing in F2????, F2, and F2????, predict the bond orders and the relative

masya89 [10]

Answer: F2 : bond order= 1.0

F2+: bond order = 1.5

F2- : bond order = 0.5

Explanation:

1. Starting with F2+

The configuration gives;

F2+ = 9F = 1S2.2S2.2P5

= 9F+ = 1S2.2S2.2P4 (this shows it gives out an electron)

Electronic configuration = σ 1S2σ*1S2σ2S2σ*2S2σ2Pz2 π2Px2 = π2Py2 π*2Px2 = π*2Py1

The number of Electrons = (9*2) – 1 = 18 -1 = 17

Bonding electrons (Nb) = 10

Antibonding electrons (Na) = 7

Bond order = (10-7)/2 = 3/2 = 1.5

Number of unpaired electrons = 1

2. Starting with F2

The configuration gives;

F2 = 9F = 1S2.2S2.2P5

9F = 1S2.2S2.2P5 (this shows no loss of an electron)

Electronic configuration = σ 1S2σ*1S2σ2S2σ*2S2σ2Pz2 π2Px2 = π2Py2 π*2Px2 = π*2Py2

The number of Electrons = (9*2) = 18 electrons

Bonding electrons (Nb) = 10

Antibonding electrons (Na) = 8

Bond order = (10-8)/2 = 2/2 = 1.0

Number of unpaired electrons = 0

3. Starting with F2-

The configuration gives;

F2- = 9F = 1S2.2S2.2P5

10F--= 1S2.2S2.2P6 (this shows an addition of an electron)

Electronic configuration = σ 1S2σ*1S2σ2S2σ*2S2σ2Pz2 π2Px2 = π2Py2 π*2Px2 = π*2Py2 σ*2Pz

The number of Electrons = (9*2) + 1 = 19 electrons

Bonding electrons (Nb) = 10

Antibonding electrons (Na) = 9

Bond order = (10-9)/2 = 1/2 = 0.5

Number of unpaired electrons = 1

To get the order of bond as well as length, we know that;

Bond order directly proportional to 1/ Bond length

Therefore the Ascending Bond length = F2+ ˂ F2 ˂ F2-
