So ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points. Conductive when liquid - Ions are charged particles, but ionic compounds can only
conduct electricity if their ions are free to move. Ionic compounds do not conduct electricity when they are solid - only when dissolved in water or melted .

taurus [48]

Answer:

0.737M

Explanation:

C1V1=C2V2

2.50 x 0.442 = C x 1.5

1.105 = C x 1.5

C = 1.105/1.5

C = 0.737M

Polymers are large molecules composed of simple units repeated many times. Thus, they often have relatively simple empirical for
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

(a) C5H8O2

(b) C2H2Cl2

(c) CH2

(d) CH

Explanation:

We need to find the proportion of the atoms in whole numbers. Given the percentages we can calculate the number of moles and find their proportions.

Assume 100 g and given the atomic weights the moles are calculated.

(a) C = 59.9/ 12.01 = 4.98  ≈ 5.00

    H = 8.06/1.007 = 8.00

    O = 32/15.999  = 2.00

C5H8O2

(b) C= 24.8/12.01 = 2.06≈ 2.00

    H = 2.0/1.007 = 1.99 ≈ 2.00

   Cl = 73.1/ 35.453 = 2.06 ≈ 2.00

C2H2Cl2

(c) C = 86/12.01 = 7.16  

    H= 14/1.007 = 13.90

7.16:13.90 ≈ 1:2

CH2

(d) C = 92.30/12.01 = 7.68

    H = 7.7 / 1.007 =   7.65

7.68:7.65 ≈ 1:1

CH

Delta S will be positive for the reaction ________. a. 2Hg (l) + O2(g) ----------> 2HgO (s) b. 2NO2 (g) -------> N2O4(g) c
nordsb [41]

Answer:

BaF2(s) ------> Ba2 (aq) + 2F- (aq)

Explanation:

Entropy refers to the degree of disorderliness in a system. Processes that lead to greater disorderliness in a system are said to increase the entropy of the system or lead to a positive value of ΔS.

If we consider the process, BaF2(s) ------> Ba2 (aq) + 2F- (aq), we will notice that ions were produced in solution thereby increasing the disorderliness of the system.
