Covalent compounds are generally not very hard because they are formed by two or more nonmetallic atoms.

<h3>COVALENT COMPOUNDS:</h3>

Covalent compounds are compounds whose constituent elements are joined together by covalent bonds.

Covalent bonding occurs when two or more nonmetallic atoms of an element share valence electrons. This means that covalent compounds will not be physically hard since they constitute non-metals.

Examples of covalent compounds are:

  1. H2 - hydrogen
  2. H2O - water
  3. HCl - hydrogen chloride
  4. CH4 - methane

⦁ Find the concentration of H+, OH-, PH and POH of 0.03 M of magnesium hydroxide which ionizes to the extent of only 1 /3 in aqu
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

pH=12.3\\\\pOH=1.7\\

[H^+]=5x10^{-13}M

[OH^-]=0.02M

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given ionization of magnesium hydroxide, it is possible for us to set up the following reaction:

Mg(OH)_2(s)\rightleftharpoons Mg^{2+}(aq)+2OH^-(aq)

Thus, since the ionization occurs at an extent of 1/3, we can set  up the following relationship:

\frac{1}{3} =\frac{x}{[Mg(OH)_2]}

Thus, x for this problem is:

x=\frac{[Mg(OH)_2]}{3}=\frac{0.03M}{3}\\\\x=  0.01M

Now, according to an ICE table, we have that:

[OH^-]=2x=2*0.01M=0.02M

Therefore, we can calculate the H^+, pH and pOH now:

[H^+]=\frac{1x10^{-14}}{0.02}=5x10^{-13}M

pH=-log(5x10^{-13})=12.3\\\\pOH=14-pH=14-12.3=1.7

Best regards!

joja [24]
The first step is to balance the equation:


<span>C3H8 + 5O2 ---> 3CO2 + 4H2O


Check the balance


element          left side        right side

C                    3                  3  
H                    8                  4*2 = 8
O                    5*2=10        3*2 + 4 = 10


Then you have the molar ratios:


3 mol C3H8 : 5 mol O2 : 3 mol CO2 : 4 mol H2O


Now you have 40 moles of O2 so you make the proportion:

40.0 mol O2 * [3 mol CO2 / 5 mol O2] = 24.0 mol CO2.


Answer: option D. 24.0 mol CO2
