The chemical breakdown of enormous quantities of organic material buried in the sedimentary rocks has produced ethane gas.
Ionic bond is a chemical bond formed by the complete transfer of electrons between two atoms. The atom that loses electrons gains a positive charge (cation) and that which accepts electrons gains a negative charge (anion). Now, electronegativity is a parameter that measures the tendency of an atom to accept electrons. In the context of ionic bonding, two elements which show a significant difference in their electronegativity values form ionic bonds.
In the given examples, the difference in electronegativity is greatest between K and Br i.e. 0.8 and 2.8 respectively with a difference of 2.0. This also makes sense since K and Br are on the extreme ends of the periodic table. Hence, potassium with a valence electron configuration of 4s1 will lose its s electron to Br (4s24p6) and form an ionic molecule K⁺Br⁻
Ans E) potassium and bromine
Answer:
A chemical equation can be described as a symbolic representation of a chemical reaction. It can be written in the form of words or symbols.
The following chemical reaction can be completed as :
Na2SO4·10H2O + 2C = Na2S + 10H2O + 2CO2
Sodium Sulfate Decahydrate + Diamond = Sodium Sulfide + Water + Carbon Dioxide
The products of the reaction are:
- Sodium Sulfide (Na2S)
- Water (H2O)
Answer:
Pressure, P = 67.57 atm
Explanation:
<u>Given the following data;</u>
- Volume = 0.245 L
- Number of moles = 0.467 moles
- Temperature = 159°C
- Ideal gas constant, R = 0.08206 L·atm/mol·K
<u>Conversion:</u>
We would convert the value of the temperature in Celsius to Kelvin.
T = 273 + °C
T = 273 + 159
T = 432 Kelvin
To find the pressure of the gas, we would use the ideal gas law;
PV = nRT
Where;
- P is the pressure.
- V is the volume.
- n is the number of moles of substance.
- R is the ideal gas constant.
- T is the temperature.
Making P the subject of formula, we have;

Substituting into the formula, we have;


<em>Pressure, P = 67.57 atm</em>
