If you knew the number of valence electrons in a nonmetal atom how would you determine the valence of the element. (Ignore hydro

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The possible valances can be determined by electron configuration and electron negativity

Good Luck even though this was asked 2 weeks ago

Explanation:

All atoms strive for stability. The optima electron configuration is the electron configuration of the VIII A family or inert gases.

Look at the electron configuration of the nonmetal and how many more electrons the nonmetal needs to achieve the stable electron configuration of the inert gases. Non metals tend to be negative in nature and gain electrons. ( They are oxidizing agents)

For example Florine atomic number 9 needs one more electron to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Flowrine has a valance of -1

Oxygen atomic number 8 needs two more electrons to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Oxygen has a valance charge of -2.

Non metals with a low electron negativity will lose electrons when reacting with another non metal that has a higher electron negativity. When the non metal forms an ion it is necessary to look at the electron structure to determine how many electrons the element can lose to gain stability.

For example Chlorine which is normally -1 like Florine when it combines with oxygen can be +1, +3, + 5 or +7. It can lose its one unpaired electron, or combinations of the unpaired electron and sets of the three pairs of electrons.

PLZ ANSWER QUICKLY! The electronegativity values of carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen are compared in the table. Comparison of Elec

andriy [413]

Answer:

c. CH4 < NH3 because the NH bond is more polar than the CH bond.

Explanation:

Actually, the electronegativity difference between carbon and hydrogen is just about 0.4. This meager difference in electronegativity corresponds to a nonpolar bond between the two atoms.

However, the electronegativity difference between nitrogen and hydrogen is about 0.9. This larger electronegativity difference corresponds to the existence of a polar covalent bond between the two atoms.

Hence the N-H bond is significantly polar unlike the C-H bond. This implies that CH4 molecules are only held together by weak dispersion forces while NH3 molecules are held together by stronger dipole-dipole interactions and hydrogen bonds.

1.How many mL of 0.401 M HI are needed to dissolve 5.97 g of BaCO3?

garri49 [273]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

1.- volume = 0.151 l or 151 ml

2.- 0.241 l or 241 ml of NaOH

Explanation:

1.-

Data

V = ? HI = 0.401 M

BaCO3 = 5.97 g

2HI(aq) + BaCO3(s) ⇒ BaI2(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)

MW BaCO3 = 137 + 12 + 48 = 197 g

197 g of BaCO3 ----------------- 1 mol

5.97 g ----------------- x

x = (5.97 x 1) /197

x = 0.03 mol of BaCO3

2 moles of HI ---------------- 1 mol of BaCO3

x ---------------- 0.03 mol of BaCO3

x = (0.03 x 2) / 1

x = 0.060 mol of HI

Molarity = moles / volume

volume = moles / molarity

volume = 0.060 / 0.401

volume = 0.151 l or 151 ml

2.-

V = ? NaoH 0.757 M

Co⁺² Volume = 167 ml 0.548 M

CoSO4(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) ⇒ Co(OH)2(s) + Na2SO4(aq)

Moles of Co = Molarity x volume

Moles of Co = 0.548 x 0.167

Moles of Co = 0.092

1 mol of CoSO4 -------------- 2 moles of NaOH

0.092 moles --------------- x

x = (0.092 x 2) /1

x = 0.183 moles of NaOH

Volume of NaOH = moles / molarity

= 0.183 / 0.757

= 0.241 l or 241 ml of NaOH
