N the ionic compound aluminum selenide, each atom of aluminum (gains or loses)

Chemistry
1 answer:
Volgvan2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

loses, gains

Explanation:

In the ionic compound aluminum selenide, each atom of aluminum will lose electrons while each atom of selenium will gain the electrons.

An ionic compound is an interatomic bond formed between a metal and non-metal. The metal is less electronegative compared to the non-metal. In this case, the metal will lose electrons to become positively charged whereas the non-metal, selenium will gain the electron to become negatively charged.

The electrostatic attraction between these oppositely charged ions leads to the formation of the ionic bond.

The formation of protons over neutrons (thus producing about a 7:1 ratio) was favored in the early universe because:____.
tatiyna

Because it requires more energy to create a neutron from a proton than it does to create a proton from a neutron, protons were formed more frequently than neutrons in the early universe. The correct answer is option b.

To find the answer, we need to know more about the early universe.

<h3>How the formation of proton over neutrons was favored in the early universe?</h3>
  • A neutron is produced with greater energy than a proton.
  • However, later on, some of the protons were changed into neutrons.
  • Contrary to some claims, the proton is a stable particle that never decays, but the neutron is unstable outside of the nucleus and decays with a half life of around 10.5 minutes.
  • However, very few would have had time to decay on the timeline you mention in your question.
  • Every matter particle should have been accompanied by an antimatter particle, and every proton, neutron, and electron, by an anti-neutron and a positron, respectively.
  • Where did all the antimatter go is the great mystery. There have been a few attempts to explain this, but they have failed.

Thus, we can conclude that, the correct answer is option b.

The correct lewis structure for COH2 contains how many covalent bonds?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Four covalent bonds.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the attached picture in which you can find the Lewis dot structure for metanal (formaldehyde) we can see two C-H bonds and two C-O bonds via a double bond, thus, we can compute the type of each bond given the electronegativities of hydrogen, carbon and oxygen which are 2.1, 2.5 and 3.5 respectively:

C-H=2.5-2.1=0.4\\C-O=3.5-2.5=1.0

Thus, since both electronegativity difference are less 1.7 we infer that all of them are covalent, therefore, it has four covalent bonds, two C-H bonds and a double C-O bond.

Best regards-

Which compound has the strongest hydrogen bonding between its molecules?
GrogVix [38]
(3) HF because HCl is an acid and it seperates easily into water. Flourine has the highest electronegativity so im guessing because it pulls the electrons the hardest that it has the strongest bonds.
