Answer:

Explanation:

A formal charge (FC) is the charge assigned to an atom in a molecule, assuming that electrons in all chemical bonds are shared equally between atoms, regardless of relative electronegativity(Wikipedia).

The formal charge on an atom in a molecule reflects the electron count associated with the atom compared to the isolated neutral atom(University of Calgary).

Looking at all the structures listed A-E for SeO2F2, only structure A minimizes the formal charges for each atom in SeO2F2.

At which temperature do the molecules of an ideal gas have 3 times the kinetic energy they have at 32of?

algol [13]

Answer:

820 K

Explanation:

As per Boltzman equation, kinetic energy (KE) is in direct relation to the temperature, measured in absolute scale Kelvin.

KE α T.

Then, the temperature at which the molecules of an ideal gas have 3 times the kinetic energy they have at any given temperature will be 3 times such temperature.

So, you must just convert the given temperature, 32°F, to kelvin scale.

You can do that in two stages.

First, convert 32°F to °C. Since, 32°F is the freezing temperature of water, you may remember that is 0°C. You can also use the conversion formula: T (°C) = [T (°F) - 32] / 1.80

Second, convert 0°C to kelvin:

T (K) = T(°C) + 273.15 K= 273.15 K

Then, 3 times gives you: 3 × 273.15 K = 819.45 K

Since, 32°F has two significant figures, you must report your answer with the same number of significan figures. That is 820 K.

WHY is there a difference between how an electrolytes and non electrolytes affect collegiative properties?

natulia [17]

Colligative properties are dependent upon the number of molecules or ions present in solution. Therefore, 1 mole of Na2SO4 will produce 3 moles of ions and so it will have 3 times as much of an effect as 1 mole of sugar, which is not an electrolyte and can't dissociate to an appreciable extent.

If one of the impurities in diesel fuel has the formula c2h6s, what products will be formed when it burns? enter a balanced chem

inna [77]

If one of the impurities in diesel fuel has the formula c2h6s, then the products that will form would be carbon dioxide, water and sulfur dioxide. The balanced chemical reaction would be as follows:

C2H6S(l) + 9/2O2(g) = 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(v) + SO2(g)

Hope this answers the question.

The vapor pressure of pure water at 25 °c is 23.8 torr. What is the vapor pressure (torr) of water above a solution prepared by

maxonik [38]

The vapour pressure of the solution is 23.4 torr.

Use Raoult’s Law to calculate the vapour pressure:

p₁ = χ₁p₁°

where

χ₁ = the mole fraction of the solvent

p₁ and p₁° are the vapour pressures of the solution and of the pure solvent

The formula for vapour pressure lowering Δp is

Δp = p₁° - p₁

Δp = p₁° - χ₁p₁° = p₁°(1 – χ₁) = χ₂p₁°

where χ₂ is the mole fraction of the solute.

Step 1. Calculate the mole fraction of glucose

n₂ = 18.0 g glu × (1 moL glu/180.0 g glu) = 0.1000 mol glu

n₁ = 95.0 g H_2O × (1 mol H_2O/18.02 g H_2O) = 5.272 mol H_2O

χ₂ = n₂/(n₁ + n₂) = 0.1000/(0.1000 + 5.272) = 0.1000/5.372 = 0.018 62

Step 2. Calculate the vapour pressure lowering

Δp = χ₂p₁° = 0.018 62 × 23.8 torr = 0.4430 torr

Step 3. Calculate the vapour pressure

p₁ = p₁° - Δp = 23.8 torr – 0.4430 torr = 23.4 torr

The change in speed that could occur in 4 seconds in an object with an acceleration of 6 m/s/s.

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

24m/s

Explanation:

a=change of v/change of t

6m/s^2=v/4s

multiply both sides by 4s

v=24m/s
