Answer:
The answer to your question is: b. P - Br
Explanation:
Difference of electronegativities from the periodic table. The one with the highest electronegativity will be the most polar.
a.
H = 2.2
Se = 2.55
Electronegativity = 2.55 - 2.2 = 0.35
b.
P = 2.19
Br = 2.96
Electronegativity = 2.96 - 2.19 = 0.77
c.
N = 3.04
I = 2.66
Electronegativity = 3.04 - 2.66 = 0.38
Answer:
Substance 4
Explanation:
Density is defined as mass per unit volume. A substance floats in another when its density is less than that of the substance on which it floats.
If an object is immersed in a denser liquid, it will sink
Since the density of water is 1 g/cm^3, any substance whose density is less than that of water will float in it.
If we look at the table, substance 4 has a density of 0.5g/cm^3. Hence, substance 4 is expected to float in water.
BiO₃⁻ → Bi³⁺
+5 +3
Balance oxidation state:
BiO₃⁻ + 2 e⁻ → Bi³⁺
Balancing oxygen by adding water and balance H
BiO₃⁻ + 6 H⁺ + 2 e⁻ → Bi³⁺ + 3 H₂O
balance charge:
BiO₃⁻ + 6 H⁺ + 2 e⁻ → Bi³⁺ + 3 H₂O
+ 3 + 3
Final:
BiO₃⁻ + 6 H⁺ + 2 e⁻ → Bi³⁺ + 3 H₂O
