Answer: I believe it is B
The best way to accurately determine the pair with the highest electronegativity difference is by using their corresponding electronegativity values. For the each of the choices, the difference is:
A. H-S = 2.5 - 2.1 = 0.4
B. H-Cl = 3 - 2.1 = 0.9
C. N-H = 3 - 2.1 = 0.9
D. O-H = 3.5 - 2.1 = 1.4
E. C-H = 2.5 - 2.1 = 0.4
As show, D. has the highest difference. Without looking at their values, you can also determine the pair with the highest difference by taking note of the trend of electronegativity on the periodic table. Electronegativity increases as you go right a group and up a period. This makes oxygen the most electronegative element among the other elements paired with hydrogen.
Answer:
Their melting and boiling points of alkanes are relatively low. The higher the molecular weight (the greater the number of carbons), the higher the boiling point.
The balanced chemical reaction is expressed as:
M + F2 = MF2
To determine the moles of the element fluorine present in the product, we need to determine the moles of the product formed from the reaction and relate this value to the ratio of the elements in MF2. We do as follows:
moles MF2 produced = 0.600 mol M ( 1 mol MF2 / 1 mol M ) = 0.600 mol MF2
molar mass MF2 = 46.8 g MF2 / 0.6 mol MF2 = 78 g/mol
moles MF2 = 46.8 g ( 1 mol / 78 g ) = 0.6 mol
moles F = 0.6 mol MF2 ( 2 mol F / 1 mol MF2 ) = 1.2 moles F
