Answer:

<h3>Learning Objective </h3><h3>Identify element pairs which are likely to form ionic or covalent bonds </h3><h3>Key Points </h3><h3>Ionic compounds are formed from strong electrostatic interactions between ions, which result in higher melting points and electrical conductivity compared to covalent compounds.</h3><h3>Dioxins are a group of highly toxic chemical compounds that are harmful to health. They can cause problems with reproduction, development, and the immune system. They can also disrupt hormones and lead to cancer. Known as persistent environmental pollutants (POPs), dioxins can remain in the environment for many years. </h3><h3>Covalent compounds have bonds where electrons are shared between atoms. Due to the sharing of electrons, they exhibit characteristic physical properties that include lower melting points and electrical conductivity compared to ionic compounds. </h3><h3>Terms </h3><h3>electronegativity: The tendency of an atom or molecule to attract electrons and form bonds. </h3><h3>octet rule: Atoms lose, gain, or share electrons in order to have a full valence level of eight electrons. Hydrogen and helium are exceptions because they can hold a maximum of two valence electrons. </h3><h3>valence electrons: Electrons in the outermost principal energy (valence) level of an atom that can participate in the formation of chemical bonds with other atoms. </h3><h3>Two Classes of Compounds </h3><h3>Compounds are defined as substances containing two or more different chemical elements. They have distinct chemical structures characterized by a fixed ratio of atoms held together by chemical bonds. Here, we discuss two classes of compounds based on the bond type that holds the atoms together: ionic and covalent. </h3><h3 /><h3>Covalent Compounds </h3><h3>Covalent bonds are characterized by the sharing of electrons between two or more atoms. These bonds mostly occur between nonmetals or between two of the same (or similar) elements.Two atoms with similar electronegativity will not exchange an electron from their outermost shell; the atoms instead share electrons so that their valence electron shell is filled. </h3><h3 /><h3>Examples of compounds that contain only covalent bonds are methane (CH4), carbon monoxide (CO), and iodine monobromide (IBr). </h3><h3 /><h3>Ionic Compounds </h3><h3>Ionic bonding occurs when there is a large difference in electronegativity between two atoms. This large difference leads to the loss of an electron from the less electronegative atom and the gain of that electron by the more electronegative atom, resulting in two ions. These oppositely charged ions feel an attraction to each other, and this electrostatic attraction constitutes an ionic bond. </h3><h3 /><h3>Ionic bonding occurs between a nonmetal, which acts as an electron acceptor, and a metal, which acts as an electron donor. Metals have few valence electrons, whereas nonmetals have closer to eight valence electrons; to easily satisfy the octet rule, the nonmetal will accept an electron donated by the metal. More than one electron can be donated and received in an ionic bond. </h3><h3 /><h3>Some examples of compounds with ionic bonding include NaCl, KI, MgCl2.</h3>

Adding O2 to the reaction 6CO2 + 6H2O &lt;---&gt; C6H12O6 + 6O2, WHICH WAY WILL THE REACTION SHIFT?
Alex73 [517]

Increase in Oxygen shift the equilibrium towards reactant side.

<u>Explanation:</u>

6CO₂ + 6H₂O ⇄ C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

This is the reaction occurs in the photosynthesis of plants by means of sunlight. In this case, if the concentration of Oxygen increases or adding more oxygen to the product side will shift the equilibrium towards the reactant side according to the Le Chatlier's principle, which adjusts the equilibrium by itself for any changes that is increase or decrease in pressure, temperature or concentration of reactants or products.

determine mass of water formed when 12.5 L NH3(at298K and 1.50atm) is reacted with 18.9L of O2 (at 323K and 1.1atm)
sasho [114]

The  mass  of water formed  is


<u><em>calculation</em></u>

Use  the  ideal   gas  equation   to  calculate the  moles of  NH3  and O2

that  is  Pv= n RT

where;  P= pressure,  

V=  volume,

n = number  of  moles,

R=gas   constant  = 0.0821  l .atm/ mol.K

make n the formula of  the subject  by diving   both side  by  RT

n =  PV /RT

The   moles of NH3

n= (1.50 atm  x 12.5 L) /(  0.0821 L. atm /mol.k   x 298 K)  =0.766  moles

The  moles  of  O2

=(1.1 atm  x 18.9  L) /  (  0.0821 L. atm/ mol.k   x 323 K) = 0.784  moles


write the reaction  between  NH3  and  O2

4 NH3  + 5 O2  →4 No  +6H2O


from  equation above  0.766  moles of NH3  reacted to produce  

0.766 x 6/4 =1.149 moles of H2O


0.784  moles of O2   reacted to  produce  0.784  x 6/5=0.9408  moles  of H20


since  O2  is totally  consumed, O2  is the limiting  reagent  and therefore  the  moles of H2O  produced=  0.9408  moles


mass  of  H2O  = moles x molar mass

 from  periodic table the  molar mass  of H2O  =  (1 x2)+16= 18  g/mol

mass = 18 g/mol  x 0.9408  moles= 16.93  grams

The beakers in the picture above are labeled according to the ionic solutions they contain. What metal or metals could replace c
tangare [24]

Explanation:

When a metal replaces another metal in solution, we say such a reaction has undergone a single displacement reaction.

In such a reaction, metal higher up in the activity series replaces another one due to their position.

To known the metal or metals that will replace the given copper, we need to reference the activity series of metals.

Every metal higher than copper in the series will displace copper from the solution.

So, there metals are: potassium, sodium, lithium, barium, strontium etc.
