Temperature, according to the kinetic molecular theory, is a measure of intermolecular attraction.

According to valence bond theory, which orbitals overlap in the formation of the bond in HCl?

SIZIF [17.4K]

A) 1s on H and 3p on Cl

In HCl, the H atom has only one valance electron. Each share an electron an therefore a single covalent bond is formed between the two. The bond in HCl is therefore a result of an overlap between 1s orbital and ONLY ONE of the lobes of the 3p orbital of Chlorine.

A sample of helium has a volume of 50.00 L at STP. How many helium atoms are in the sample? Show work

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

molar volume at STP=22.4 L

given volume=50.0 L

number of moles=given volume/molar volume

number of moles=50.0/22.4

number of moles=2.2

1 mole of helium =6.023*10^23 atoms

2.2 moles of helium =6.023*10^23*2.2=1.3*10^24

therefore 50.0 L of helium contain 1.33*10^24 atoms

Compute the percent ionic character of the interatomic bonds for the following compounds : a. TiO2 b. ZnTe c. CsCld. InSb e. MgC

sesenic [268]

Answer:

a. 63.2%

b. 11.7%

c. 73.3%

d. 0.995%

e. 55.5%

Explanation:

An ionic compound is a compound that is formed by ions, so one of the elements must donate electrons (which is the cation, the positive ion), and the other will receive these electrons (which is the anion, the negative ion).

The power of an element has to attract the electrons is called electronegativity, and so, as higher is the difference of electronegative of the elements, it is more probable that one of them will "still" the electrons and will form an ionic compound. The percent of this ionic character can be found by the Pauling's equation:

$%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(x_A - x_B)^2})$ *100%

Where $x_A - x_B$ is the electronegativity difference of the elements. Thus, consulting an electronegativity table:

a. $x_{Ti}$ = 1.5

$x_{O}$ = 3.5

$%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(3.5 - 1.5)^2})$ *100%

%IC = 63.2%

b. $x_{Zn}$ = 1.6

$x_{Te}$ = 2.1

$%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(2.1 - 1.6)^2})$ *100%

%IC = 11.7%

c. $x_{Cs}$ = 0.7

$x_{Cl}$ = 3.0

$%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(3.0 - 0.7)^2})$ *100%

%IC = 73.3%

d. $x_{In}$ = 1.7

$x_{Sb}$ = 1.9

$%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(1.9 - 1.7)^2})$ *100%

%IC = 0.995 %

e. $x_{Mg}$ = 1.2

$x_{Cl}$ = 3.0

$%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(3.0 - 1.2)^2})$ *100%

%IC = 55.5%

How much faster does ethane (C2H6) gas travel compared to chlorine gas?

zimovet [89]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{54 $\, \%$ faster }}$

Explanation:

$v_{\text{rms}} \propto \sqrt{\dfrac{3RT}{M}$

if temperature is constant.

$v_{\text{rms}} \propto \sqrt{\dfrac{1}{M}$

if we are comparing two gases,

$\dfrac{v_{2}}{v_{1}} = \sqrt{\dfrac{M_{1}}{M_{2}}}$

Let chlorine be Gas 1 and ethane be Gas 2

Data:

M₁ = 70.91 g/mol

M₂ = 30.07 g/mol

Calculation

$\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{v_{2}}{v_{1}} & = & \sqrt{\dfrac{M_{1}}{M_{2}}}\\\\& = & \sqrt{\dfrac{70.91}{30.07}}\\\\& = & \sqrt{2.358}\\\\& = & \mathbf{1.54}\\\end{array}\\\text{Ethane molecules travel at 1.54 times the speed of chlorine molecules}\\\text{or $\large \boxed{\textbf{54 $\%$ faster }}$ than chlorine molecules}$
