The following observations are made about two hypothetical elements A and B: The A?A and B?Bbond lengths in elemental A and B ar

e 2.65 and 1.84 Å, respectively. A and B react to form the binary compound AB2, which has a linear structure (that is ?B?A?B=180? ).
Based on these statements, predict the separation between the two B nuclei in a molecule of AB2

Answer:

Explanation:

The concept of bond length is applied here. Bond length is the distance between the nuclei of atoms in molecules. it can be measured in different ways by X-ray diffraction. It should be noted that the shorter the bond length, the stronger the bond.

  • Given Bond length of A-A = 2ra, where ra = atomic radius of A
  • 2ra = 2.65 Å
  • similarly, bond length of B-B = 2rb = 1.84 Å, where rb = atomic radius of B
  • In AB2, separation between the two nuclei of B = rb + 2ra + rb
  • = 2rb + 2ra = 1.84 Å + 2.65 Å = 4.49Å

Given the standard heats of reaction
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Explanation:

M(s) → M (g ) + 20.1 kJ --- ( 1 )

X₂ ( g ) → 2X (g ) + 327.3 kJ ---- ( 2 )

M( s) + 2 X₂(g) → M X₄ (g ) - 98.7 kJ ----- ( 3 )

( 3 ) - 2 x ( 2 ) - ( 1 )

M( s) + 2 X₂(g) - 2 X₂ ( g ) - M(s)  → M X₄ (g ) - 98.7 kJ -  2 [ 2X (g ) + 327.3 kJ ] - M (g ) - 20.1 kJ

0 = M X₄ (g ) - 4 X (g ) - M (g ) - 773.4 kJ

4 X (g ) +  M (g ) =  M X₄ (g ) - 773.4kJ

heat of formation of M X₄ (g ) is - 773.4 kJ

Bond energy of one M - X bond =  773.4 / 4 =  193.4 kJ / mole

Suppose you have a mixture of solid mg(oh)2 and baso4, how do you separate the mixture
Step2247 [10]
This separation technique is a 4-step procedure. First, add H₂SO₄ to the solution. Because of common ion effect, BaSO₄ will not react, only Mg(OH)₂.

Mg(OH)₂ + H₂SO₄ → MgSO₄ + 2 H₂O

The aqueous solution will now contain MgSO₄ and BaSO₄. Unlike BaSO₄, MgSO₄ is soluble in water. So, you filter out the solution. You can set aside the BaSO₄ on the filter paper. To retrieve Mg(OH)₂, add NaOH.

MgSO₄ + 2 NaOH = Mg(OH)₂ + Na₂SO₄

Na₂SO₄ is soluble in water, while Mg(OH)₂ is not. Filter this solution again. The Mg(OH)₂ is retrieved in solid form on the filter paper.

What is the electronegativity in the determination of the ionic or covalent character of a bond
Paladinen [302]

Polar Covalent is the name used to describe bonds that have both ionic and covalent character because the electrons are shared unequally. The Pauling Scale is used to assign electronegativity to atoms. It ranges from to 4.00 (fluorine).

A 3.00-l flask is filled with gaseous ammonia, nh3. the gas pressure measured at 15.0 ∘c is 2.15 atm . assuming ideal gas behavi
Leokris [45]
We can find the mass of ammonia using the ideal gas law equation,
PV = nRT
where 
P - pressure - 2.15 atm x 101 325 = 2.18 x 10⁵
V - volume - 3.00 x 10⁻³ m³
n - number of moles 
R - universal gas constant - 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹
T - temperature in kelvin - 15.0 °C + 273 = 288 K
substituting these values in the equation 
2.18 x 10⁵ Pa x 3.00 x 10⁻³ m³ = n x 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹ x 288 K
n = 0.273 mol 
number of moles of NH₃ is 0.273 mol 
molar mass of NH₃ - 17.0 g/mol 
mass pf ammonia present - 0.273 mol x 17.0 g/mol = 4.64 g
mass of NH₃ present is 4.64 g
