Explain what you understand by valency, give examples​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Lostsunrise [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Valency is defined as the number of hydrogen atoms which combine directly or indirectly with one atom of an element.

Example:

One atom of nitrogen combines with three atoms of hydrogen to form ammonia gas. So, the valency of nitrogen is 3.

How many moles (of molecules or formula units) are in each sample? 79.34 g cf2cl2?
Alona [7]
From the periodic table:
molecular mass of carbon = 12 grams
molecular mass of fluorine = 18.99 grams
molecular mass of chlorine = 35.5 grams
Therefore:
one mole of CF2Cl2 = 12 + 2(18.99) + 2(35.5) = 120.98 grams
Therefore, we can use cross multiplication to find the number of moles in 79.34 grams as follows:
mass = (79.34 x 1) / 120.98 = 0.6558 moles

Now, one mole contains 6.022 x 10^23 molecules, therefore:
number of molecules in 0.65548 moles = 0.6558 x 6.022 x 10^23
                                                              = 3.949 x 10^23 molecules

PLEASE HURRY!!!
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

  • <em><u>Measurement of the amount of variation of the species in a given area. </u></em>

Explanation:

<em>Bio</em> preffix means life. Thus, literally, biodiversity means how diverse is the life. This is, how many different organisms an ecosystem or biome has.

Thus, biodiverstiy, although more complex than just that, is a measure of the number of species that live in a region.

The biome with most species than any other, this is the biome with the greatest biodiversity, is the tropical rainforest biome, which are located near the equator. As you can imagine, a large number of different plants, animals, and microorganisms live in these forests, making them the regions with greatest biodiversity on the planet.

The Charles Zeppelin, a fictional airship, is filled with 2.16 x 105 liters of hydrogen gas (H2). On the ground, the airship’s t
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

V2 = 3.11 x 105 liters

Explanation:

Initial Volume, V1 = 2.16 x 105 liters

Initial Temperature, T1 = 295 K

Final Temperature, T2 = 425 K

Final Volume, V2 = ?

These quantities are related by charle's law and the equation of the law is given as;

V1 / T1  =  V2 / T2

V2 = T2 * V1 / T1

V2 = 425 * 2.16 x 105 / 295

V2 = 3.11 x 105 liters

Explain why scientists find the particulate matter of theory useful
BARSIC [14]

This idea has historical significance. The ancient Greek philosopher Democritus (born 460 BCE), who held that everything is composed of small particles moving in empty space, is credited with developing the first hypothesis we have about the microscopic universe. He had some concrete proof for this, such the fact that items like a new loaf of bread or a rose may give off a scent even when they are far from the source. Being a materialist, he thought that these odors originated from actual material particles released by the bread or the rose, rather than being purely a type of magic. He reasoned that these particles must float through the air, with some of them maybe landing in your nose where you can smell them immediately. This still makes sense in modern times. But many of us now have quite different perspectives on these "particles."

Thank you,

Eddie
