<h2>What is chemical binding?</h2>

Chemical bonding helps to joining atoms or molecules together. It is also helps molecules of the same or different substance to get together through joining to each other . Solid , liquid, or gaseous matter can exist in the nature due to chemical bonding .

<h3>How Chemical bonds are formed?</h3>

Bonds form when atoms share or transfer valence electrons. Valence electrons are the electrons in the outer energy level of an atom that may be involved in chemical interactions. Valence electrons are the basis of all chemical bonds.

There are two primary kinds of chemical bonds that keep atoms together:

  1. Covalent
  2. Electrovalent/ionic bonds.

Covalent bonds have atoms which share electrons in a chemical bond.

Ionic bonds are formed by the of atoms that have opposite charges

  • Sodium chloride, or NaCl, is an example of an ionic bond.

  • Another example of an ionic bond is found in lithium fluoride (LiF). Lithium has one electron in its outer shell, and fluorine has seven electrons in its outer shell.

Which type of galaxy forms when two other galaxies crash into each other? They are small galaxies made up of bright, young stars
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

elliptical galaxy

Explanation

:The combination of the two galaxies then forms what appears to be an elliptical galaxy as the arms begin to disappear. The merger of gasses creates new stars, and the new shape becomes more elliptical, globular, or sometimes irregular.

In living things what is the source of the carbon-14 that is used in radiocarbon dating
Mumz [18]
In living things, the source of the carbon-14 that is used in radiocarbon dating is carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Living things inhale oxygen, and exhale carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which is why the air and atmosphere are so full of it.

Calculate the energy required to heat 406.0mg of cyclohexane from 33.5°C to 38.9°C . Assume the specific heat capacity of cycloh
N76 [4]

Answer:

Q = 4.056 J

Explanation:

  • Q = m<em>C</em>ΔT

∴ m = 406.0 mg = 0.406 g

∴ <em>C </em>= 1.85 J/g.K

∴ T1 = 33.5°C ≅ 306.5 K

∴ T2 = 38.9°C = 311.9 K

⇒ ΔT = 311.9 - 306.5 = 5.4 K

⇒ Q = (0.406 g)(1.85 J/gK)(5.4 K)

⇒ Q = 4.056 J

Calculate the solubility of o2 in water at a partial pressure of o2 of 120 torr at 25 ̊c. the henry's law constant for o2 at 25
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

1) 2.054 x 10⁻⁴ mol/L.

2) Decreasing the temperature will increase the solubilty of O₂ gas in water.

Explanation:

1) The solubility of O₂ gas in water:

  • We cam calculate the solubility of O₂ in water using Henry's law: <em>Cgas = K P</em>,
  • where, Cgas is the solubility if gas,
  • K is henry's law constant (K for O₂ at 25 ̊C is 1.3 x 10⁻³ mol/l atm),
  • P is the partial pressure of O₂ (P = 120 torr / 760 = 0.158 atm).
  • Cgas = K P = (1.3 x 10⁻³ mol/l atm) (0.158 atm) = 2.054 x 10⁻⁴ mol/L.

2) The effect of decreasing temperature on the solubility O₂ gas in water:

  • Decreasing the temperature will increase the solubilty of O₂ gas in water.
  • When the temperature increases, the solubility of O₂ gas in water will decrease because the increase in T will increase the kinetic energy of gas particles and increase its motion that will break intermolecular bonds and escape from solution.
  • Decreasing the temperature will increase the solubility of O₂ gas in water will because the kinetic energy of gas particles will decrease and limit its motion that can not break the intermolecular bonds and increase the solubility of O₂ gas.

Using the systematic approach for equilibrium problems, calculate the pH of 0.05 M HOCl. Ka= 3.0*10-8 Group of answer choices 3.
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

The pH is equal to 4.41

Explanation:

Since HClO is a weak acid, its dissociation in aqueous medium is:

                HClO   ⇄   ClO-  +  H+

start:          0.05            0         0

change       -x               +x       +x

balance     0.05-x         x         x

As it is a weak acid it dissociates very little, in its ClO- and H + ions, so the change is negative, where x is a degree of dissociation.

the acidity constant when equilibrium is reached is equal to:

Ka=\frac{[ClO-]*[H+]}{[HClO]}=\frac{x*x}{0.05-x}=3x10^{-8}

The 0.05-x fraction can be approximated to 0.05, because the ionized fraction (x) is very small, therefore we have:

3x10^{-8}=\frac{x^{2} }{0.05}

clearing the x and calculating its value we have:

x=3.87x10^{-5}=[H+]=[ClO-]

the pH can be calculated by:

pH=-log[H+]=-log[3.87x10^{-5}]=4.41
