Answer:

a)NaBr

b)FCl

Explanation:

To identify which compound is more ionic we will calculate the electronegativity difference.

A) NaBr

Electronegativity of Na = 0.93

Electronegativity of Br = 2.96

Electronegativity difference = 2.96- 0.93 = 2.03

HBr

Electronegativity of H = 2.2

Electronegativity of Br = 2.96

Electronegativity difference = 2.96 - 2.2 = 0.76

NaBr have more ionic character because of large electronegativity difference.

B) BrCl

Electronegativity of Cl = 3.16

Electronegativity of Br = 2.96

Electronegativity difference = 3.16 - 2.96 = 0.2

FCl

Electronegativity of F = 3.98

Electronegativity of Br = 2.96

Electronegativity difference = 3.98 - 2.96 = 1.02

FCl have more ionic character because of large electronegativity difference.

What is the correct definition of energy?
scoray [572]

Answer:

The ability to do work

Explanation:

  • Energy refers to the ability to carry out work.
  • It is measured in Joules (J).
  • Energy may exist in different forms such as potential energy when a body is at rest, kinetic energy when the body is in motion, etc.
  • Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, however, it can be transformed from one form to another. For example, chemical energy may be transformed into mechanical energy or other forms of energy.

Which of the following explanations accounts for the fact that the ion-solvent interaction is greater for Li than for K
OLEGan [10]

Li+ has a smaller ionic radius than K+

and smaller molecules have more collisions/interactions between each other

<h3>What is ion-solvent interaction ?</h3>

In the case of ion-solvent interactions, the state in which the interac-tions exist is an obvious one; it is the situation in which ions are inside the solvent.

  • Ions are charged particles, and charges interact with other charges. So there will also be ion-ion, as well as ion-solvent, interactions in the solution.

  • In the process of solvation, ions are surrounded by a concentric shell of solvent. Solvation is the process of reorganizing solvent and solute molecules into solvation complexes.

Sodium Chloride is an ionic compound. Its molar mass is 58.44g. One formula unit of NaCl consists of one____, whose chemical sym
saul85 [17]

Answer: One formula unit of NaCl consists of one cation, whose chemical symbol is Na^+ and one anion whose chemical symbol is Cl^-

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.  

The cation is formed by the metal sodium which forms  Na^+ and the anion is formed by non metal chlorine which forms Cl^-.

For a formula unit of sodium chloride,  the charges have to be balanced , thus the valencies of ions are exchanged and the neutral compound result. Thus

Na^+ and  Cl^- combine to form neutral NaCl
