Covalent compounds are composed of atoms that are linked via covalent bonds i.e. bonds formed by mutual sharing of electrons. This is in complete contrast to ionic compounds which are held together by ionic bonds, i.e. bonds formed by complete transfer of electrons from one atom to the other.
In the given examples we have:
Barium nitrate: Ba(NO3)2 - Ionic
Dinitrogen tetroxide: N2O4- Covalent
Boron trifluoride: BF3-Covalent
Ammonium sulfate: (NH4)2SO4- Ionic
Carbon tetrachloride: CCl4- Covalent
Barium chloride: BaCl2 - Ionic
Answer:
Explanation:
2Al(s) + Fe₂O₃(s) ⟶ Al₂O₃(s) + 2Fe(s); ΔᵣH = ?
The formula for calculating the enthalpy change of a reaction by using the enthalpies of formation of reactants and products is
2Al(s) + Fe₂O₃(s) ⟶ Al₂O₃(s) + 2Fe(s)
ΔfH°/kJ·mol⁻¹: 0 -824.3 -1675.7 0

Answer:
ΔG°rxn = +50.8 kJ/mol
Explanation:
It is possible to obtain ΔG°rxn of a reaction at certain temperature from ΔH°rxn and S°rxn, thus:
<em>ΔG°rxn = ΔH°rxn - T×S°rxn (1)</em>
In the reaction:
2 HNO3(aq) + NO(g) → 3 NO2(g) + H2O(l)
ΔH°rxn = 3×ΔHfNO2 + ΔHfH2O - (2×ΔHfHNO3 + ΔHfNO)
ΔH°rxn = 3×33.2kJ/mol + (-285.8kJ/mol) - (2×-207.0kJ/mol + 91.3kJ/mol)}
ΔH°rxn = 136.5kJ/mol
And S°:
S°rxn = 3×S°NO2 + S°H2O - (2×S°HNO3 + S°NO)
ΔH°rxn = 3×0.2401kJ/molK + (0.0700kJ/molK) - (2×0.146kJ/molK + 0.2108kJ/molK)
ΔH°rxn = 0.2875kJ/molK
And replacing in (1) at 298K:
ΔG°rxn = 136.5kJ/mol - 298K×0.2875kJ/molK
<em>ΔG°rxn = +50.8 kJ/mol</em>
<em />
A, because the shape of it forms and arc much like a H2O molecule.
