If oxygen with an electronegativity of 3.5 were to make a chemical bond with lithium, electronegativity of 1.0, what kind of bon

d would form
Chemistry
1 answer:
sergejj [24]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Ionic.

Explanation:

Elements with higher electronegativity values are better at attracting electrons in a chemical bond.  

  • A chemical bond is considered "ionic" if the electronegativity difference between the two bonding atoms is greater than 1.8.
  • Otherwise, this chemical bond is considered "covalent".

In this example, the difference between the electronegativity of oxygen and lithium is 3.5 - 1.0 = 2.5. Since 2.5 > 1.8, the bond between the two elements would likely be ionic.

It is possible to reach the same conclusion based on the fact that lithium is a metal while oxygen is a nonmetal. When metal elements react with non-metal elements, the product is typically an ionic compound- with ionic bonds between the atoms.

Given pH = 3.50 Find: [H3O+] and [OH-] Is this acidic, basic or neutral?
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

           pH = 3.50

Unknown:

    concentration of [H₃0⁺] = ?

    concentration of [OH⁻] = ?

Solution:

In order to find the unknown, we use some simple expressions which best explains the pH scale and the equilibrium systems of aqueous solutions.

         pH = -log₁₀[H₃O⁺]

         [H₃O⁺] = inverse log₁₀ (-pH) = 10^{-pH} = 10^{-3.5}

          [H₃O⁺] = 3.2 x 10⁻⁴moldm⁻³

       

For the  [OH⁻]:

       we use : pOH = -log₁₀ [OH⁻]

     Recall: pOH + pH = 14

                  pOH = 14 - pH = 14 - 3.5 = 10.5

  Now we plug the value of pOH into pOH = -log₁₀ [OH⁻]

                                   [OH⁻] = 10^{-pOH}

                        [OH⁻] = 10^{-10.5} = 3.2 x 10⁻¹¹moldm⁻³

The solution is acidic as the concentration of H₃0⁺ is more than that of the OH⁻ ions.

At 9°C a gas has a volume of 6.17 L. What is its volume when the gas is at standard temperature?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

V₂ = 5.97 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial temperature = 9°C (9+273 = 282 K)

Initial volume of gas  = 6.17 L

Final volume of gas = ?

Final temperature = standard = 273 K

Solution:

Formula:

The Charles Law will be apply to solve the given problem.

According to this law, 'the volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure'

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₂ = V₁T₂/T₁  

V₂ = 6.17 L ×  273K /  282  k

V₂ = 1684.41 L.K / 282 K

V₂ = 5.97 L

Acetylene gas (c2h2) reacts with oxygen gas (o2) to produce carbon dioxide (co2) and water vapor (h2o). how many liters of c2h2
MissTica
According to the balanced equation of the reaction:

2C2H2 + 5O2 → 4CO2 + 2H2O

So we can mention all as liters,

A) as we see that 2 liters of C2H2 react with 5 liters of oxygen to produce 4 liters of CO4 and 2 liters of H2O 

So, when we have 75L of CO2

and when we have 2 L of C2H2 reacts and gives 4 L of CO2

 2C2H2 → 4CO2 

∴ The volume of C2H2 required is:

                    = 75L / 2

                    = 37.5 L

B) and, when we have 75 L of CO2


and 4CO2 → 2H2O 

∴ the volume of H2O required is: 
                               
                            = 75 L /2
                            = 37.5 L 


C) and from the balanced equation and by  the same way:

when 5 liters O2  reacts to give 4 liters of CO2

and we have 75 L of CO2:

5 O2 → 4 CO2 

   ??  ←  75 L

∴ the volume of O2 required is:

                              = 75 *(5/4)

                              = 93.75 L



D) about the using of the number of moles the answer is: 

no, there is no need to find the number of moles as we called everything in the balanced equation by liters and use it as a liter unit to get the volume, without the need to get the number of moles.
