Answer:

Explanation:

For a flower to appear blue, "it needs to be able to produce a molecule that can absorb very small amounts of energy," in order to absorb the red part of the spectrum, Kupferschmidt said.

Compute the percent ionic character of the interatomic bonds for the following compounds : a. TiO2 b. ZnTe c. CsCld. InSb e. MgC
sesenic [268]

Answer:

a. 63.2%

b. 11.7%

c. 73.3%

d. 0.995%

e. 55.5%

Explanation:

An ionic compound is a compound that is formed by ions, so one of the elements must donate electrons (which is the cation, the positive ion), and the other will receive these electrons (which is the anion, the negative ion).

The power of an element has to attract the electrons is called electronegativity, and so, as higher is the difference of electronegative of the elements, it is more probable that one of them will "still" the electrons and will form an ionic compound. The percent of this ionic character can be found by the Pauling's equation:

%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(x_A - x_B)^2}) *100%

Where x_A - x_B is the electronegativity difference of the elements. Thus, consulting an electronegativity table:

a. x_{Ti} = 1.5

x_{O} = 3.5

%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(3.5 - 1.5)^2})*100%

%IC = 63.2%

b. x_{Zn} = 1.6

x_{Te} = 2.1

%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(2.1 - 1.6)^2})*100%

%IC = 11.7%

c. x_{Cs} = 0.7

x_{Cl} = 3.0

%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(3.0 - 0.7)^2})*100%

%IC = 73.3%

d. x_{In} = 1.7

x_{Sb} = 1.9

%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(1.9 - 1.7)^2})*100%

%IC = 0.995 %

e. x_{Mg} = 1.2

x_{Cl} = 3.0

%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(3.0 - 1.2)^2})*100%

%IC = 55.5%

An ideal gas is contained in a cylinder with a volume of 5.0x102 mL at a temperature of 30°C and a pressure of 710. Torr. The ga
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

51207 torr is the new pressure of the gas

Explanation:

We can solve this question using combined gas law that states:

P1V1T2 = P2V2T1

<em>Where P is pressure, V volume and T absolute temperature of 1, initial state and 2, final state of the gas</em>

<em> </em>

Computing the values of the problem:

P1 = 710torr

V1 = 5.0x10²mL

T1 = 273.15 + 30°C = 303.15K

P2 = ?

V2 = 25mL

T2 = 273.15 + 820°C = 1093.15K

Replacing:

710torr*5.0x10²mL*1093.15K = P2*25mL*303.15K

3.881x10⁸torr*mL*K = P2 * 7.579x10³mL*K

P2 = 51207 torr is the new pressure of the gas

7. A 26.4-ml sample of ethylene gas, C2H4, has a pres-sure of 2.50 atm at 2.5°C. If the
never [62]

Answer: 1.87 atm

Explanation:

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 2.50 atm

P_2 = final pressure of gas = ?

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 26.4 ml

V_2 = final volume of gas = 36.2 ml

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 2.5^oC=273+2.5=275.5K

T_2 = final temperature of gas = 10^oC=273+10=283K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{2.50\times 26.4}{275.5}=\frac{P_2\times 36.2}{283}

P_2=1.87atm

The new pressure is 1.87 atm by using combined gas law.
