What is special about the kelvin temperature scale

Chemistry
1 answer:
nalin [4]3 years ago
5 0
Kelvin is a temperature scale designed so that zero degrees K is defined as absolute zero (at absolute zero, a hypothetical temperature, all molecular movement stops - all actual temperatures are above absolute zero) and the size of one unit is the same as the size of one degree Celsius.

Resonance structures differ by ________. resonance structures differ by ________. number of atoms only number of electrons only
lapo4ka [179]
<span>The answer to this question would be: placement of electrons only

An atom with resonance structure or mesomerism has one or more different structure with different placement of the electron. The atom should have a same amount of electron but only differ in the electron position. This will result in a different Lewis structure model. In this structure, you can find </span>π electrons pair.<span>

Which of the following atoms forms an ionic bond with a sulfur atom? (Points : 3)
elena-s [515]
Ionic bonds are formed when there is complete transfer of valence electrons between two atoms.

Electronegativity tells the trend of an atom to atract electrons.

You should search for the complete set of rules that indicate whether an ionic or covalent bond happens.

There are two relevant rules to state if whether an ionic bond will happen:

- When the difference of electronegativities between the two atoms is greater than 2.0, then the bond is ionic.

- When the difference is between 1.6 and 2.0, the bond is ionic if one of the elements is a metal.

You need to list the electronegativities of the five elements (there are tables with this information)

Element  electronegativity

Cu:    1.9
H:      2.2
Cl      3.16
I:        2.66
S:      2.58

Differences:

Cu / S: 2.58 - 1.9 = 0.68
H / S: 2.58 - 2.2 = 0.38
Cl / S: 3.16 - 2.58 =0.58
I / S: 2.66 -  2.58 = 0.08

 Those differences are too low to consider that the bond is ionic.

Then the answer is that none of those atoms forms an ionic bond with sulfur.

Which noble gas will Selenium try to resemble when it becomes an ION?
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Krypton

Explanation:

When Selenium forms an ion, it is trying to become krypton which is a noble gas.

Selenium belongs to the oxygen group on the periodic table. In this group, the atoms prefers to gain two electrons to complete their octet. When selenium gains two electrons, its octet is complete.

This will make the atom resemble krypton on the periodic table of elements.

This structure which is an octet confers a special stability on the element.
