Which end of the H-F molecule will be partially positive?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Marianna [84]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

the hydrogen end

Explanation:

In H - F molecules there is a charge separation. Hydrogen has partial positive charge on them and Fluorine has a partial negative charge on it.

  • The bonds between H - F molecule is a covalent bond.
  • In this bond, both atoms share their electrons to attain a stable configuration
  • But the electrons are not shared equally.
  • Fluorine is more electronegative compared to the hydrogen.
  • Fluorine therefore, attracts the shared electrons more closely to itself.
  • This makes fluorine more negative and hydrogen positive.

Your task is to create a buffered solution. You are provided with 0.10 M solutions of formic acid and sodium formate. Formic aci
Anton [14]

Answer:

15.2mL of the 0.10M sodium formate solution and 4.8mL of the 0.10M formic acid solution.

Explanation:

To find the pH of a buffer based on the concentration of the acid and conjugate base we must use Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pKa + log [A⁻] / [HA]

<em>Where [A⁻] could be taken as moles of the sodium formate and [HA] moles of the formic acid</em>

<em />

4.25 = 3.75 + log [A⁻] / [HA]

0.5 = log [A⁻] / [HA]

3.162 = [A⁻] / [HA] <em>(1)</em>

<em></em>

As both solutions are 0.10M and you want to create 20mL of the buffer, the moles are:

0.10M  * 20x10⁻³L =

2x10⁻³moles = [A⁻] + [HA] <em>(2)</em>

Replacing (2) in (1):

3.162 = 2x10⁻³moles - [HA] / [HA]

3.162 [HA] = 2x10⁻³moles - [HA]

4.162[HA] = 2x10⁻³moles

[HA] = 4.805x10⁻⁴ moles

[A⁻] = 2x10⁻³moles - 4.805x10⁻⁴ moles = 1.5195x10⁻³moles

That means, to create the buffer you must add:

[A⁻] = 1.5195x10⁻³moles * (1L / 0.10mol) = 0.0152L =

<h3>15.2mL of the 0.10M sodium formate solution</h3>

[HA] = 4.805x10⁻⁴ moles * (1L / 0.10mol) = 0.0048L =

<h3>4.8mL of the 0.10M formic acid solution</h3>

A match has about 21 milligrams of red phosphorus coating the tip. How many atoms of phosphorus is this?
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

4.083 * 10^20 atoms.

Explanation:

One Mole of phosphorus  contains 6.022 * 10^23 atoms (Avogadros number)'

Since 1 mole of Phosphorus  has a mass of  30.974 grams, 21 milligrams has

6.022 * 10^23  * 0.021 / 30.974

= 0.004083 * 10^23

= 4.083 * 10^20

What is the electron configuration of an element with atomic number 20? A. 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5 B. 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 C. 1s2 2s2
Cerrena [4.2K]

D.  The number of electrons equals the atomic number for a neutral element.  Each number after the letter refers to the number of electrons in that shell.  So for D, 2+2+6+2+6+2 = 20 electrons, which is equal to the atomic number.

How many protons, neutrons, and electrons could an isotope of this atom contain?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

The atomic number on the Periodic Table identifies the number of protons in any atom of that element. Copper, atomic number 29, has 29 protons. Finding the atomic number of an element reveals the number of protons.

To find the number of neutrons in the atom, subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass.
