Answer:

SiF4 is not a polar covalent bond.

Explanation:

SiF4 is a nonpolar molecule because the fluorine's are arranged around the central silicon atom in a tetrahedral molecule with all of the regions of negative charge cancelling each other out.

The equation for one of the reactions in the process of turning iron ore into the metal is

Leona [35]

Answer:

2100g or 2.1kg

Explanation:

Based on the equation given,

One mole of Fe2O3 gives two moles of Fe

Molar mass for Fe2O3 is 160g/mol

Molar mass for two Fe is 112g/mol

Convert 3kg to gram

3×1000=3000grams

160g of Fe2O3-112 g of Fe

3000g of Fe2O3-xg of Fe

Xg=3000×112/160

Xg=2100g

To convert to kg

2100/1000=2.1kg

Mass of Fe is 2.1kg

Which of the following is an oxidation-reduction reaction? Fe2O3 3CO Right arrow. 2Fe 3CO2 CuSO4 2NaOH Right arrow. Cu(OH)2 Na2S

Damm [24]

The reaction, Fe2O3 + 3CO------> 2Fe + 3CO2 is an oxidation-reduction reaction.

An oxidation-reduction reaction is a reaction in which there is a change in oxidation number from left to right in the reaction. This is because, a specie is oxidized and another specie is reduced.

In the reaction; Fe2O3 + 3CO------> 2Fe + 3CO2, we can see that the oxidation number of iron decreased from +3 on the left hand side to zero on the right hand side. The oxidation number of carbon was increased from + 2 to +4.

Consider the followong balanced reaction. What mads in g of co2 can be formed from 288 mg of o2. Assume that there is excess c3h

Gwar [14]

Answer:

0.264 g of $CO_2$ can be formed from 288 mg of $O_2$

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is

$2 C_3 H_7 OH+9 O_2> 6 CO_2+8 H_2 O$

The conversions are

Mass in mg $O_2$ is converted to mass in g $O_2$

Mass in g $O_2$ is converted to moles $O_2$ by dividing with molar mass

Moles $O_2$ is converted to moles $CO_2$ by using the mole ratio of $O_2:CO_2$ is 9 : 6

Moles $CO_2$ is converted to mass $CO_2$ by multiplying with molar mass $CO_2$

mass in mg $O_2$ > mass in g $O_2$ >moles $O_2$ > moles $CO_2$ > mass $CO_2$

$288mg O_2 \times \frac{(1g O_2)}{(1000mg O_2 )} \times \frac {(1molO_2)}{(32gO_2 )}\times\frac {(6mol CO_2)}{(9mol O_2 )} \times \frac {(44.0 gCO_2)}{(1mol CO_2 )}$

For each row in the table below, decide whether the pair of elements will form a molecular or ionic compound. If they will, then

Olin [163]

Answer:

$\begin{array}{cccll}\textbf{Element 1} & \textbf{ Element 2} &\textbf{Compound?} &\textbf{Formula} &\textbf{Type}\\\text{Ar}&\text{Xe} &\text{No} &\text{None}&\text{Neither}\\\text{F}& \text{Cs} &\text{Yes} &\text{CsF} &\text{Ionic}\\\text{N} &\text{Br} &\text{Yes} & \text{NBr}_{3}&\text{molecular} \\\end{array}$

Explanation:

You look at the type of atom and their electronegativity difference.

If ΔEN <1.6, covalent; if ΔEN >1.6, ionic

Ar/Xe: Noble gases; no reaction

F/Cs: Non-metal + metal; ΔEN = |3.98 – 0.79| = 3.19; Ionic

N/Br: Two nonmetals; ΔEN = |3.04 - 2.98| = 0.
