Answer:

Barium Cyanide, Ba(CN)2, is formed by passing anhydrous hydrocyanic acid over cooled barium hydroxide crystals, and dissolves in the water of crystallisation of the hydrated baryta. With anhydrous barium oxide or hydroxide too vigorous a reaction takes place and the cyanide is decomposed.

Determine the composition of each phase in a cu-40% ni alloy at 1300c,

Morgarella [4.7K]

To be able to answer this, you need to have a phase diagram of Cu-Ni alloy. Create a vertical line along 40% in the x-axis. Then, create a horizontal line along the temperature at 1,300°C. The intersection lies outside of the α-L boundary. <em>Therefore, the system consist solely of the L-phase: 100% L.</em>

A certain gas is present in a 10.0 LL cylinder at 4.0 atmatm pressure. If the pressure is increased to 8.0 atmatm the volume of

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The gas obeys Boyle’s law and the value of $k_i\&k_f$ both are equal to 40.0 atm L.

Explanation:

Initial volume of the gas = $V_1=10.0 L$

Initial pressure of the gas = $P_1=4.0 atm$

Final volume of the gas = $V_2=5.0 L$

Final pressure of the gas = $P_2=8.0 atm$

This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.

$PV=k$

The equation given by this law is:

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

$P_1\propto \frac{1}{V_1}$

$P_1V_1=k_i$

$k_i=4.0 atm\times 10.0 L = 40.0 atm L$

$P_2\propto \frac{1}{V_2}$

$P_V_2=k_f$

$k_f=8.0 atm\times 5.0 L = 40.0 atm L$

$k_i=k_f=40.0 atm L$

The gas in the cylinder is obeying Boyle's law.

The gas obeys Boyle’s law and the value of $k_i\&k_f$ both are equal to 40.0 atm L.

Rank the members of each set of compounds according to the ionic character of their bonds. Most ionic bonds?a) PCl3 PBr3 PF3 Mos

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Explanation:

More is the electronegativity difference between the combining atoms more polar is the compound. Hence, more ionic it will be in nature.

(a) Electronegativity value of P = 2.19

Electronegativity value of Cl = 3.16

Electronegativity value of Br = 2.96

Electronegativity value of F = 3.98

Electronegativity difference of a P-Cl bond = 3.16 - 2.19 = 0.97

Electronegativity difference of a P-Br bond = 2.96 - 2.19 = 0.77

Electronegativity difference of a P-F bond = 3.98 - 2.19 = 1.79

Since, a P-F bond has the highest electronegativity difference. Therefore, $PF_{3}$ is the most ionic compound and $PBr_{3}$ is the least ionic compound.

(b) Electronegativity value of B = 2.04

Electronegativity value of N = 3.04

Electronegativity value of C = 2.55

Electronegativity value of F = 3.98

Electronegativity difference of a B-F bond = 3.98 - 2.04 = 1.94

Electronegativity difference of a N-F bond = 3.04 - 3.98 = 0.94

Electronegativity difference of a C-F bond = 3.98 - 2.55 = 1.43

Since, a B-F bond has the highest electronegativity difference. Therefore, $BF_{3}$ is the most ionic compound and $NF_{3}$ is the least ionic compound.

(c) Electronegativity value of Se = 2.55

Electronegativity value of Te = 2.1

Electronegativity value of Br = 2.96

Electronegativity value of F = 3.98

Electronegativity difference of a Se-F bond = 3.98 - 2.55 = 1.43

Electronegativity difference of a Te-F bond = 3.98 - 2.1 = 1.88

Electronegativity difference of a Br-F bond = 3.98 - 2.19 = 1.02

Since, a Te-F bond has the highest electronegativity difference. Therefore, $TeF_{4}$ is the most ionic compound and $BrF_{3}$ is the least ionic compound.

If an unknown substance CANNOT be broken down into simpler substances, it is

lisov135 [29]

The correct answer is b. an element

The explanation:

when the ELEMENT is define as substance that cannot be decomposed (broken down) into simpler substances by ordinary chemical means. Examples: gold, iron, carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen

Ex: diamond will be broken into carbon as well.

and SUBSTANCE: Material composed of only one kind of matter throughout (same atoms or same molecules).
