Answer:

The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom is the atomic number of that element. Because atoms are electrically neutral, the number of protons and electrons in an atom are equal. The sum of the protons and neutrons is the mass number.

Which lists the elements in order from least conductive to most conductive?

Savatey [412]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Nitrogen is a non-metal and it is known that non-metals do not conduct electricity. Thus, it will be least conductive out of the given options.

Whereas antimony (Sb) is a metalloid. Metalloid are the substance that show properties of both metals and non-metals. Thus, antimony will conduct electricity.

On the other hand, bismuth (Bi) is a metal hence, it will conduct electricity.

Thus, we can conclude that the order from least conductive to most conductive will be nitrogen (N), antimony (Sb), bismuth (Bi).

Which of the following molecules would exhibit only London forces?a)CH4, BH3, and CCl4b)H2O, NH3, and CCl4c)PH3, NH3, and CCl4

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

a)CH₄, BH₃, and CCl₄

Explanation:

London dispersion forces:-

The bond for example, in the molecule is F-F, which is non-polar in nature because the two fluorine atoms have same electronegativity values.

The intermolecular force acting in the molecule are induced dipole-dipole forces or London Dispersion forces / van der Waals forces which are the weakest intermolecular force.

Out of the given options, H₂O , NH₃ exhibits hydrogen bonding which is:-

Hydrogen bonding:-

Hydrogen bonding is a special type of the dipole-dipole interaction and it occurs between hydrogen atom that is bonded to highly electronegative atom which is either fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen atom.

Thus option B and C rules out.

Hence, the correct option which represents the molecules which would exhibit only London forces is:- a)CH₄, BH₃, and CCl₄

For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coeffici

Brut [27]

Question:

For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coefficient for 0.124 b HCl solution if E=0.342 V at 298 K

Answer:

The mean activity coefficient for HCl solution is 0.78.

Explanation:

Activity coefficient is defined as the ratio of any chemical activity of any substance with its molar concentration. So in an electrochemical cell, we can write activity coefficient as γ. The equation for determining the mean activity coefficient is

$E=E_{0}-0.0514 \mathrm{V} \ln \gamma$
