How is electronegativity related to covalent bonding?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vinvika [58]4 years ago

Covalent bonds form when atoms share electrons. This sharing allows each atom to achieve its octet of electrons and greater stability. Methane, CH 4<span>, the simplest organic compound, contains covalent bonds. Carbon has four valence electrons, while hydrogen has one valence electron. By sharing these outer‐shell electrons, carbon and hydrogen complete their valence shells and become more stable. The duet of electrons on the hydrogen is isoelectronic with helium and forms a complete shell.</span>

How many moles of methane are produced when 85.1 moles of carbon dioxide gas react with excess hydrogen gas?
tino4ka555 [31]

Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, 340.0 moles  of methane are produced when 85.1 moles of carbon dioxide gas react with excess hydrogen gas

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

CO₂ + 4 H₄  → CH₄ + 2 H₂O

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • CO₂: 1 mole
  • H₄: 4 moles  
  • CH₄: 1 mole
  • H₂O: 2 moles

<h3>Moles of CH₄ formed</h3>

The following rule of three can be applied: if by reaction stoichiometry 1 mole of CO₂ form 4 moles of CH₄, 85.1 moles of CO₂ form how many moles of CH₄?

moles of CH_{4} =\frac{85.1 moles of CO_{2}x4 moles of CH_{4} }{1 moles of CO_{2}}

<u><em>moles of CH₄= 340.4 moles</em></u>

Then, 340.0 moles  of methane are produced when 85.1 moles of carbon dioxide gas react with excess hydrogen gas

5. Given 18.5 grams of CHA and 24.0 grams of Oz the following reaction occurs. Calculate the number of grams of
ehidna [41]

Answer:

16.5 g of CO₂ are produced by 18.5 of methane and 24 g of O₂

Explanation:

This is a reaction of combustion:

CH₄ +  2O₂  →  CO₂  + 2H₂O

1 mol of methane react to 2 moles of oxygen in order to produce 1 mol of carbon dioxide and 2 moles of water.

First of all, we determine the moles of each reactant:

18.5 g . 1mol/ 16g = 1.15 moles of methane

24 g . 1mol / 32g = 0.75 moles of oxygen

Now, we determine the limiting reactant:

1 mol of methane reacts to 2 moles of oyxgen

1.15 moles of methane may react to (1.15 . 2) /1 = 2.3 moles.

We only have 0.75 moles of O₂ and we need 2.3, that's why the oxygen is the limiting reagent, because we do not have enough oxygen for the reaction.

2 moles of O₂ produce 1 mol of CO₂

Then 0.75 moles may produce (0.75 . 1) /2 = 0.375 moles of CO₂

We convert the moles to mass → 0.375 mol . 44g /mol = 16.5 g

What is the density of this problem
Luda [366]

Answer:

Density of copper = 8.9 g/cm³

The density of liquid mercury is 13.6 g/cm³ which means mercury is denser than copper so copper will float on liquid mercury.

Explanation:

Given data:

weight of copper metal = 1896 g

Dimensions of block = 8.4 cm, 5.5 cm, 4.6 cm

Density of copper = ?

Will it float to the liquid mercury = ?

Solution:

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

volume of coper metal =  8.4 cm × 5.5 cm × 4.6 cm

volume of coper metal =212.52 cm³

d = 1896 g/ 212.52 cm³

d = 8.9 g/cm³

The density of liquid mercury is 13.6 g/cm³ which means mercury is denser than copper so copper will float on liquid mercury.
