Answer: A more electronegative atom will have more attraction to the electrons in a chemical bond.

Explanation:

An atom that is able to attract electrons or shared pair of electrons more towards itself is called an electronegative atom.

For example, fluorine is the most electronegative atom.

Due to its high electronegativity it is able to attract an electropositive atom like H towards itself. As a result, both fluorine and hydrogen will acquire stability by sharing of electrons.

Thus, we can conclude that a more electronegative atom will have more attraction to the electrons in a chemical bond.

Which of the following notations is the correct noble gas configuration for Li
Anettt [7]

Noble gas configuration for Li : [He]2s¹

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

In an atom, there are levels of energy in the shell and sub-shell

This energy level is expressed in the form of electron configurations.

Lithium with atomic number 3, then the electron configuration:

1s²2s¹

And for noble gas configuration or it can be called Condensed electron configurations :

[He]2s¹

The compound methyl butanoate smells like apples. Its percent composition is 58.8% C, 9.9% H, and 31.4% O. What’s the empirical
blsea [12.9K]
To find the empirical formula you would first need to find the moles of each element:

58.8g/ 12.0g = 4.9 mol C

9.9g/ 1.0g = 9.9 mol H

31.4g/ 16.0g = 1.96 O

Then you divide by the smallest number of moles of each:

4.9/1.96 = 2.5

9.9/1.96 = 6

1.96/1.96 = 1

Since there is 2.5, you find the least number that makes each moles a whole number which is 2.

So the empirical formula is C5H12O2.

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

3.41 x10⁶ torr

Explanation:

To solve this problem we need to remember the equivalency:

1 torr = 133.322 Pa

Then we can proceed to<u> convert 4.55×10⁸ Pa into torr.</u> To do that we just need to multiply that value by a fraction number, putting the unit that we want to convert <em>from</em> in the <em>denominator</em>, and the value we want to convert <em>to</em> in the <em>numerator</em>:

4.55x10⁸ Pa * \frac{1torr}{133.322Pa} = 3.41 x10⁶ torr
