Answer:

B will give up two electrons to form bonds.

Explanation:

B has 12 electrons, it means that the electronic configuration of B is; 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2. The implication of this is that B must be an element of group 2 since it has an outermost electron configuration of ns2.

The elements of group 2 form ionic bonds by loss of two electrons. This implies that B will form bonds by loss of two electrons.

write the overall rate law for the initial rate of the reaction as a fraction.

Rate=k(________/_________)

Answer:

The overall rate law for the initial reaction is = $k_{overall} [H_{2}SO_{4}]^{2} [C_{6}H_{6}]$

Explanation :

Frist of all, all the common terms are cancelled out and written the overall reaction.

As we know that the rate depednant step is the slowest step of the reaction, rate law is :

rate = $k_{2} [SO_{3}][C_{6}H_{6}]$

But the problem is that SO3 cannot be written in the overall rate law because it is an intermediate.

Rate law for synthesis of S03 is as follows :

rate = $k_{1}[H_{2}SO_{4}]^{2}$

Hence when we substitute equation 2 in equation one,

Rate comes out to be = $k_{overall} [H_{2}SO_{4}]^{2} [C_{6}H_{6}]$

What is the simplest formula of a compound if a sample of the compound contains 0.221 mol X, 0.442 mol Y, and 0.884 mol Z? chemP

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

XY₂Z₄

2.35 mol Z

Explanation:

A sample of the compound contains 0.221 mol X, 0.442 mol Y, and 0.884 mol Z. We can find the simplest formula (empirical formula) by <em>dividing all the numbers of moles by the smallest one</em>.

X: 0.221/0.221 = 1

Y: 0.442/0.221 = 2

Z: 0.884/0.221 = 4

The simplest formula is XY₂Z₄.

The molar ratio of X to Z is 1:4. The moles of Z in a sample that contained 0.588 moles of X is:

0.588 mol X × (4 mol Z/1 mol X) = 2.35 mol Z
