Answer:

Ionic bonding involves the transfer of electrons from a metal atom to a non-metal atom until the outer shells of their resultant atoms are similar to that of a noble gas. The metals lose electrons and form cations while the non-metals accept the electrons and form anions.

Calculate the molality of a solution that contains 51.2 g of naphthalene, C10H8, in 500 mL of carbon tetrachloride. The density

PtichkaEL [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The molality of naphthalene solution is 0.499 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

Density is defined as the ratio of mass and volume of a substance.

$\text{Density}=\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}$ ......(1)

Given values:

Volume of carbon tetrachloride = 500 mL

Density of carbon tetrachloride = 1.60 g/mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Mass of carbon tetrachloride}=(1.60g/mL\times 500mL)=800g$

Molality is defined as the amount of solute expressed in the number of moles present per kilogram of solvent. The units of molarity are mol/kg. The formula used to calculate molarity:

$\text{Molality of solution}=\frac{\text{Given mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Mass of solvent (in g)}}$ .....(2)

Given values:

Given mass of naphthalene = 51.2 g

Molar mass of naphthalene = 128.17 g/mol

Mass of solvent = 800 g

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

$\text{Molality of naphthalene}=\frac{51.2\times 1000}{128.17\times 800}\\\\\text{Molality of naphthalene}=0.499m$

Hence, the molality of naphthalene solution is 0.499 m

Explain how condensation is invovled in the water cycle

blagie [28]

Condensation is the process of watervapor in the air is changing into liquid water. Condensation is crucial to the water cycle because it is responsible for the formation of clouds. Condensation is also the opposite of evaporation

What is the difference between a scientific theory and an opinion?

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

An opinion is a statement describing a personal belief or thought that cannot be tested (or has not been tested) and is unsupported by evidence. ... Theories are not described as true or right, but as the best-supported explanation of the world based on evidence.

Identify which one of the three methods of analysis (i.e., TLC, IR and melting point) provides information about the structure o

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

IR provides structural information about a molecule. TLC and melting point analysis do not provide structural information.

Explanation:

IR gives information about the functional groups present in a molecule. The vibrational frequency of each functional group gives information about the structure of the entire molecule.

Structural features of a molecule are deduced by matching the vibrational frequencies of groups obtained from the IR spectroscopy with that of known functional groups in literature.

Melting point is a qualitative method that can only yield information about the identity of a compound and not its structure. Each compound has its unique melting point recorded in literature and any pure sample of the same compound must have the same sharp meting point.

Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) is a chromatography technique used to separate non-volatile mixtures. After separating the components of the mixture, it does not give any information regarding the identity or the structure of the components of the mixture.

Therefore, only IR yields structural information about a sample.

if 14.0 g of aluminium reacts with excess sulfuric acid to produce 75.26 g of aluminium sulfate, what is the percent yield?

vlada-n [284]

Taking into account definition of percent yield, the percent yield for the reaction is 84.88%.

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

2 Al + 3 H₂SO₄ → Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 3 H₂

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

Al: 2 moles
H₂SO₄: 3 moles
Al₂(SO₄)₃. 1 mole
H₂: 3 moles

The molar mass of the compounds is:

Al: 27 g/mole
H₂SO₄: 98 g/mole
Al₂(SO₄)₃: 342 g/mole
H₂: 2 g/mole

Then, by reaction stoichiometry, the following mass quantities of each compound participate in the reaction:

Al: 2 moles ×27 g/mole= 54 grams
H₂SO₄: 3 moles ×98 g/mole= 294 grams
Al₂(SO₄)₃: 1 mole ×342 g/mole= 342 grams
H₂: 3 moles ×2 g/mole= 6 grams

<h3>Mass of aluminium sulfate formed</h3>

The following rule of three can be applied: if by reaction stoichiometry 54 grams of aluminium form 342 grams of aluminium sulfate, 14 grams of aluminium form how much mass of aluminium sulfate?

$mass of aluminium sulfate=\frac{14 grams of aluminium x342 grams of aluminium sulfate}{54 grams of aluminium}$

<u><em>mass of aluminium sulfate= 88.67 grams</em></u>

Then, 88.67 grams of aluminium sulfate can be produced if 14.0 g of aluminium reacts with excess sulfuric acid.

<h3>Percent yield</h3>

The percent yield is the ratio of the actual return to the theoretical return expressed as a percentage.

The percent yield is calculated as the experimental yield divided by the theoretical yield multiplied by 100%:

$percent yield=\frac{actual yield}{theorical yield} x100$

where the theoretical yield is the amount of product acquired through the complete conversion of all reagents in the final product, that is, it is the maximum amount of product that could be formed from the given amounts of reagents.

<h3>Percent yield for the reaction in this case</h3>

In this case, you know:
