How many molecular orbitals would be present in a molecule with the formula: ch2o?

Chemistry

Zigmanuir [339]3 years ago

There are two molecular orbitals in the CH2O or formaldehyde. These are designated by the two types of bonding involved. The first is the sigma bonding. It is the head-on overlap of electrons of the C and H atoms. The second molecular orbital is formed from the pi orbital bonding. This is a sideway overlap of electrons between C-O bonding.

The molar heat capacity of ethane is represented in the temperature range 298 K to 400 K by the empirical expression Cp,m in J K
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

-88.66 kJ/mol

Explanation:

The expressions of heat capacity (Cp,m) for C(s) and for H₂(g) are:

C(s):  Cp,m/(J K-1 mol-1) = 16.86 + (4.77T/10³) - (8.54x10⁵/T²)

H₂(g): Cp,m/(J K-1 mol-1) = 27.28 + (3.26T/10³) + (0.50x10⁵/T²)

Cp = A + BT + CT⁻²

For the Kirchoff's Law:

ΔHf = ΔH°f + \int\limits^{T2}_{T1} {DCp(T)} \, dT

Where ΔH°f is the enthalpy at 298 K, T1 is 298 K, T2 is the temperature given (373 K), and DCp is the variation of Cp (products less reactants). ΔH°f  for ethene is -84.68 kJ/mol and the reaction is:

2C(s) + 3H₂(g) → C₂H₆

So, DCp:

dA = A(C₂H₆) - [2xA(C) + 3xA(H₂)] = 14.73 - [2x16.86 + 3x27.28] = -100.83

dB = B(C₂H₆) - [2xB(C) + 3xB(H₂)] = 0.1272 - [2x4.77x10⁻³ + 3x3.26x10⁻³] = 0.10788

dC = C(C₂H₆) - [2xC(C) + 3xC(H₂)] = 0 - (2x(-8.54x10⁵) + 3x0.50x10⁵) = 15.58x10⁵

dCp = -100.83 + 0.10788T + 15.58x10⁵T⁻²

\int\limits^{373}_{298} {-100.83 + 0.10788T + 15.58x10^5T^{-2}} \, dT = -3796.48 J/mol = -3.80 kJ/mol (solved by a graphic calculator)

ΔHf = -84.68 - 3.80

ΔHf = -88.66 kJ/mol

A sample of a substance has these characteristics: melting point of 984 K hard, brittle solid at room temperature poor conductor
ANEK [815]

The correct answer is option 4, that is, an ionic compound.  

The mentioned features belong to an ionic compound. The ionic compounds exhibit strong bonds in between their atoms, that is, an ionic bond is the strongest molecular bond, this confirms that ionic compounds exhibit a high melting point.  

The ionic compounds do not transmit current, as they do not possess free electrons, like metals, thus, they are poor conductors as solid. The ionic compounds get dissolve in water and form ions that are the charges, which can move, making them good conductors as a liquid. The composition of the ionic compound is a set of crystals that makes them brittle and hard.
