Account for the difference in the shape and color of the potential maps for ammonia and the ammonium ion.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Tcecarenko [31]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explained below.

Explanation:

The difference between the two of them will be considered from their electrostatic potential maps.

First of all the major difference is that ammonia molecule(NH3) has a lone lone pair of electron on the N atom.

Due to the this lone pair of electron on the N - atom of ammonia, it's bond angle will be slightly lesser than that of ammonium ion.

Therefore, In the electrostatic potential map of NH3, the charge distribution will not be symmetrical for the fact that there is electron rich N atom and so the N atom will be more red than the 3 hydrogen atoms (H atoms).

Whereas, the electrostatic potential map of NH4+ (ammonium ion) will be symmetrical due to the even/symmetrical distribution of all the 4 hydrogen atoms surrounding the central Nitrogen atom.

Also, the Nitrogen atom here in ammonium ion will have a lower electron density than the Nitrogen atom that's present in ammonia molecule due to the bonding existing between the lone pair electron and the Hydrogen atom

What Is Precision? The Degree Of Accuracy In A Measurement
Artemon [7]

Answer:

Precision refers to how close two or more measurements are to each other, regardless whether those measurements are accurate or not.

Accuracy refers to how closely the measured value of a quantity corresponds to its “true” value.

Rain soaks into the soil or runs off into oceans, rivers, and lakes. ___________ which process is this
krok68 [10]

Answer:

The water falls to the earth as precipitation, such as rain, hail, sleet, and snow. When precipitation reaches the earth's surface, some of it will flow along the surface of the land and enter surface water like lakes, streams, and rivers, as runoff. The rest of it soaks or percolates into the soil, called

Boyle's law only works when a gas is kept at a constant temperature. Experimentally this is very tricky as changes in pressure o
Lady bird [3.3K]

The heat that creates this temperature change coming from change in the internal energy of the system as per as first law of thermodynamics.

<h3>What is Boyle's law ?</h3>

A law stating that the pressure of a given mass of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to its volume at a constant temperature.

As we know, Boyle's law only works when the gas is kept at a constant temperature

Here,

When volume of gases decreased, it means work done has occurred on the system, so the work done is used for raising internal energy of the gas and the other is released as the thermal energy.

So,

According to 1st law of thermodynamics,

we know  Q =  ΔU + W  i.e, change in internal energy and work done. So this is a reason. Changing temperature occurs.

Shown here is a person shaving.  Under magnification, the shaving foam might look like the image above the shaver. What type of mixture does the foam demonstrate? Give your reasoning.

Foam is a colloid. Colloids includes gas dispersed in a liquid and it also includes gas dispersed in a solid

On the next slide, you can select any answers you want, or you can select nothing. There's no wrong answer.

A student squeezes several oranges to make a glass of orange juice. The juice contains pieces of orange pulp mixed with the juice. Explain why this drink can be considered a combination of a suspension and a solution.

The juice contains sugars, plant pigments, and other chemicals dissolved in water. This is a solution. The pieces of orange pulp will rise to the top or settle to the bottom of the juice if it is allowed to sit. The pieces of pulp mixed with the juice form a suspension

On the right side, you can also select any answers or none at all. There is no wrong answer.

__________________________________________________________

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

There are two main types of mixtures, homogeneous mixtures and heterogeneous mixtures. The components of a homogeneous mixture are evenly distributed throughout the mixture. The properties of a mixture are the same everywhere. The components of a heterogeneous mixture are not evenly distributed. Different regions of this mixture have different   properties.

Particles in a homogeneous mixture do not settle down or separate when left alone. Particles in a heterogeneous mixture eventually separate or settle when left alone.

  • Colloids are a type of heterogeneous mixture that do not naturally settle out quickly, and can be separated with different methods.
  • A suspension is another type of heterogeneous mixtures in which the components of the mixture will quickly settle out or can be filtered or separated.

Here are photos of Edge just incase.
