An element with an electronegativity of 0.9 bonds with an element with an electronegativity of 3.1.. Which phase best describes

eduard

Electronegativity is the strength an atom has to attract a bonding pair of electrons to itself. When a chlorine atom covalently bonds to another chlorine atom, the shared electron pair is shared equally. The electron density that comprises the covalent bond is located halfway between the two atoms.

But what happens when the two atoms involved in a bond aren’t the same? The two positively charged nuclei have different attractive forces; they “pull” on the electron pair to different degrees. The end result is that the electron pair is shifted toward one atom.

ATTRACTING ELECTRONS: ELECTRONEGATIVITIES

The larger the value of the electronegativity, the greater the atom’s strength to attract a bonding pair of electrons. The following figure shows the electronegativity values of the various elements below each element symbol on the periodic table. With a few exceptions, the electronegativities increase, from left to right, in a period, and decrease, from top to bottom, in a family.

Electronegativities give information about what will happen to the bonding pair of electrons when two atoms bond. A bond in which the electron pair is equally shared is called a nonpolar covalent bond. You have a nonpolar covalent bond anytime the two atoms involved in the bond are the same or anytime the difference in the electronegativities of the atoms involved in the bond is very small.

Now consider hydrogen chloride (HCl). Hydrogen has an electronegativity of 2.1, and chlorine has an electronegativity of 3.0. The electron pair that is bonding HCl together shifts toward the chlorine atom because it has a larger electronegativity value.

A bond in which the electron pair is shifted toward one atom is called a polar covalent bond. The atom that more strongly attracts the bonding electron pair is slightly more negative, while the other atom is slightly more positive. The larger the difference in the electronegativities, the more negative and positive the atoms become.

Now look at a case in which the two atoms have extremely different electronegativities — sodium chloride (NaCl). Sodium chloride is ionically bonded. An electron has transferred from sodium to chlorine. Sodium has an electronegativity of 1.0, and chlorine has an electronegativity of 3.0.

That’s an electronegativity difference of 2.0 (3.0 – 1.0), making the bond between the two atoms very, very polar. In fact, the electronegativity difference provides another way of predicting the kind of bond that will form between two elements, as indicated in the following table.

What is the specific heat of a substance that absorbs 2500 joules of heat when a sample of 100g of the substance increases in te

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

0.417 J/gºC

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Heat (Q) absorbed = 2500 J

Mass (M) of substance = 100 g

Initial temperature (T1) = 10 °C

Final temperature (T2) = 70 °C

Specific heat capacity (C) =?

Next, we shall determine the change in temperature (ΔT). This can be obtained as follow:

Initial temperature (T1) = 10 °C

Final temperature (T2) = 70 °C

Change in temperature (ΔT) =?

Change in temperature (ΔT) = T2 – T1

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 70 – 10

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 60 °C

Finally, we shall determine the specific heat capacity of the substance as follow:

Heat (Q) absorbed = 2500 J

Mass (M) of substance = 100 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 60 °C

Specific heat capacity (C) =?

Q = MCΔT

2500 = 100 × C × 60

2500 = 6000 × C

Divide both side by 6000

C = 2500 / 6000

C = 0.417 J/gºC

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of substance is 0.417 J/gºC

A sample of gas exerts a pressure of 16 atm at a temperature of 340 K. What is the pressure of the gas in atm if the temperature

gavmur [86]

Answer:

P2 = 19.2atm

Explanation:

Initial pressure (P1) = 16atm

Initial temperature (T1) = 340K

Final temperature (T2) = 408K

Final pressure (P2) = ?

This question involves the use of pressure law

Pressure law states that the pressure of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to it's temperature provided that volume is kept constant.

Mathematically,

P = kT, k = P / T

Therefore,

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2 = P3 / T3 = ......=Pn / Tn

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

We need to solve for P2

P2 = (P1 × T2) / T1

Now we can plug in the values and solve for P2

P2 = (16 × 408) / 340

P2 = 6528 / 340

P2 = 19.2atm

The final pressure (P2) of the gas is 19.2atm
