Why is oxygen diflouride a gas at room temperature?

Chemistry
1 answer:
atroni [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Oxygen is a simple molecular structure, where individual oxygen atoms are bonded to each other by strong covalent bonds. Hence, a low amount of energy is required to overcome these weak forces and oxygen has a low boiling point. Therefore, at room temperature, oxygen is a gas. Oxygen difluoride is a colorless gas, condensable to a pale yellow liquid, with a slightly irritating odor. It is the most stable of the compounds of fluorine and oxygen, which include O,F,, O,F, and 0,F2 but nevertheless it is a strong oxidizing and fluorinating agent. Oxygen Difluoride is a colorless gas or a yellowish-brown liquid with a foul odor. Just to finally link Joseph's answer to the question, oxygen difluoride will thus change from liquid to solid state when chilled from -220°c to -230°c. The boiling point of oxygen is -182.96 degrees Celsius (under 1 standard atmosphere). This means at temperatures below that point, oxygen is a solid or a liquid, and at temperatures above that point, oxygen is a gas. So at -183 degrees Celsius, oxygen is a liquid.

Q3. A student wanted to make blue copper sulfate crystals from green copper carbonate powder
CaHeK987 [17]

Heat the sulfuric acid solution and adding copper carbonate in it.

<h3>Improvement require in this experiment</h3>

The method could be improved by heating sulfuric acid solution and add copper carbonate into the solution of sulfuric acid. Add the copper carbonate until it is present in excess amount. After that filter the extra amount of copper carbonate so in this way the blue copper sulfate crystals are produced.

The two isotopes of chlorine are 35/17 cl and 37/17cl. which isotope is the most abundant
Natalka [10]

The most abundant is 35/17 Cl

explanation

This is  because Chlorine  35/17 is the one close to the average atomic mass of chlorine which is  35.46 u making it to be the most abundant.

average atomic mass of chlorine is 35.46 + or- 0.02

4. Thorium-234 has a half-life of 24.1 days. What percentage of the original thorium-234 in a sample will remain after 144.6 day
kari74 [83]
How many half lives have elapsed?
actually the formula is like this
A=P(1/2)^(t/h)
P=iniital amount
t=time
h=half life
A=final amount
so

hmm, percent
so P=1 then
A=1(1/2)^(144.6/24.1)
A=1(1/2)^6
A=1/64
A=0.05625
so 5.625% is left
