Why do non-metals bond with each other to form covalent compound?
larisa [96]

Answer:

Explanation:

Because unlike ionic bonds (metal and a non-metal) where electrons are "stolen", covalent bonds are defined by the sharing of electrons between non-metals.

Describe 2 ways of salting out proteins ​
liubo4ka [24]

The phenomenon known as "salting-out" occurs at very high ionic strengths, when protein solubility declines as ionic strength rises. As a result, salting out may be used to segregate proteins according to how soluble they are in salt solutions.

Because large levels of sodium chloride disturb the bonds and structure of the active site, the rate of enzyme activity will gradually decrease as the concentration of sodium chloride rises. As a result, some of the active sites get denaturized and the starch loses its ability to attach to them. As more enzymes get denatured and eventually cease to function, enzyme activity will steadily wane.

Use the bond energies to answer the question.
Schach [20]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Hello!

This is a topic I just learned this year so I might not help the best as of explaining. But I will try my best.

To solve this problem, we must first figure the balanced equation.

H₂+O₂=H₂O₂

Now, we have to find the bond energy of the reactants and products. This is how.

Let's find the reactant first.

For the compound H₂, the Lewis dot structure says that it only consists of one singular bond. So the bond energy of H₂ would be 432.

For the compound O₂, the Lewis dot structure that is the best out of the resonance structures form a double bond. Let's use the bond energy 495 for this since there are double bonds and we need the corresponding double bond energy to make the bond energy accurate.

Let's add this amount together. 927

Now, we have to find the bond energy of the products.

H₂O₂ sounds complicated but it's fairly easy. When you write the Lewis dot structure for this specific compound, you will get something along the lines of this:

H-O-O-H (disregarding lone pairs)

In this compound, there are two bonds of H-O and one bond that is a O-O. This might take you a long time to see this, but just think of what atom is touching the atom next door. This might help distinguish the bonds there are between the compound.

Let's take the bond energy of H-O (467) and multiply this by two since we have two. Add that number to the bond energy of O-O (146). We should have the numbers 1080.

Since the problem is asking for the difference in total energy between the reactants and products, let's subtract the total bond energy of the products-reactants.

1080-927=153

Therefore, your final answer of the total bond energy is 153.

A gas mixture contains HBr, NO2, and C2H6 at STP. If a tiny hole is made in the container, which gas will effuse fastest? NO2 C2
Anarel [89]

Answer:

C2H6

Explanation:

Let us first consider the molar Masses of each gas

HBr - 80.91 g/mol

NO2 - 46.0055 g/mol

C2H6 - 30.07 g/mol

We must remember that the greater the molar mass of a gas the lesser its velocity and average kinetic energy.

Looking at the gases listed, C2H6 have the highest average kinetic energy at this temperature since it has the lowest molecular mass. This reasoning is directly derived from Graham's law of diffusion in gases.

Hence C2H6 will effuse fastest when a hole is made in the container. It also possess the greatest average kinetic energy because it has the lowest molecular mass.
