Define ionic bond and explain the formation of nacl and mgo

Chemistry
1 answer:
fomenos3 years ago
4 0

a.

Ionic bond is a bond in which there is complete transfer of valence electrons between atoms.

The atom that loses the valence electron is called the electron donor while the atom that accepts the electron is called the electron acceptor.

Ionic bond usually occurs between metals and non metals.

Ionic bond is a bond in which there is complete transfer of valence electrons between atoms.

b.

The force of attraction between Na⁺ and Cl⁻ forms the ionic bond.

  • In the formation of NaCl, Na has one valence electron in its outermost shell and Cl needs one electron to complete the stable octet configuration.
  • Na donates its valence electron to Cl to form the ionic bond. So, the Na atom becomes positively charged with a charge of +1 while the Cl atom becomes negatively charged with a charge of -1.

Since the atoms are now charged, the force of attraction between them forms the ionic bond.

c.

The force of attraction between Mg²⁺ and O²⁻ forms the ionic bond.

  • In the formation of MgO, Mg has two valence electrons in its outermost shell and O needs two electrons to complete the stable octet configuration.
  • Mg donates its two valence electron to O to form the ionic bond. So, the Mg atom becomes positively charged with a charge of +2 while the O atom becomes negatively charged with a charge of -2.

Since the atoms are now charged, the force of attraction between them forms the ionic bond.

2Pb(s) + O2(aq) + 4H+(aq) → 2H2O(l) + 2Pb2+(aq)
defon

Answer:

The answer to your question is 0.269 g of Pb

Explanation:

Data

Lead solution = 0.000013 M

Volume = 100 L

mass = 0.269 g

atomic mass Pb = 207.2 g

Chemical reaction

                        2Pb(s) + O₂(aq) + 4H⁺(aq) → 2H₂O(l) + 2Pb₂⁺(aq)

Process

1.- Calculate the mass of Pb in solution

Formula

Molarity = \frac{number of moles}{volume}

Solve for number of moles

Number of moles = Volume x Molarity

Substitution

Number of moles = 100 x 0.000013

Number of moles = 0.0013

2.- Calculate the mass of Pb formed.

                       207.2 g of Pb ----------------- 1 mol

                             x g             ----------------- 0.0013 moles

                        x = (0.0013 x 207.2) / 1

                        x = 0.269 g of Pb

Select the answer which shows the correct order, slowest to fastest, of the relative rate of diffusion of the gases.
IrinaK [193]

Diffusion is the process of a substance spreading out to evenly fill its container or environment. Rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the molar mass of the gas.

Rate of diffusion \propto \frac{1}{Molar mass}

Lighter(lower) the molar mass of the gas , faster will be its rate of diffusion and heavier (higher) the molar mass of the gas , slower will be its rate of diffusion.

We have to arrange the given gases from slowest rate of diffusion to fastest rate of diffusion that means we need to arrange gases from higher molar mass to lower molar mass.

Molar mass of given gases are :

Cl = 35.5 g/mol

Xe = 131.29 g/mol

He = 4.00 g/mol

N = 14.00 g/mol

So correct order for slowest rate of diffusion (highest molar mass) to fastest rate of diffusion (lowest molar mass) is :

Xe , Cl , N , He

Xe having the highest molar mass will have the slowest rate of diffusion and He with lowest molar mass will have the fastest rate of diffusion, so option 'c' is correct.

Note : Slowest rate of diffusion = High Molar Mass

Fastest rate of diffusion = Low Molar Mass

Multiple choice-- 16 pts!
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: It decreases because nonvolatile aluminum and chloride ions now occupy some of the volume of the system.

Explanation:

Vapor pressure of a liquid  is defined as the pressure exerted by the vapors  in equilibrium with the liquid/solution at a particular temperature.

So, when a non-volatile solute is added to a solvent then its molecules align at the surface of liquid. As a result, less number of solvent molecules will escape from the solution. Thus, there will be decrease in vapors and thus the vapor pressure decrease.

The relative lowering of vapor pressure is directly proportional to the amount of dissolved solute.
