Which of the following pairs of elements is most likely to form an ionic compound?1.Nitrogen and sulfur? OR 2. Magnesium and Flu

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Magnesium and fluorine.

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are formed by the electrostatic attraction of cations and anions.

Cations, positive ions, are formed when atoms lose electrons, and anions, negative ions, are formed when atoms gain electrons.

When two different atoms have similar atraction for electrons (electronegativity) they will not donate to nor catch electrons from each other, so cations and anions will not be formed. Instead, the atoms would prefer to share electrons forming covalent bonds to complete their outermost shell (octet rule).

Then, in order to form ionic compounds the electronegativities have to substantially different. This situation does not happen between two nonmetal elements, which nitrogen and sulfur are. Then, you can predict safely that nitrogen and sulfur will not form an ionic compound.

Ionic compounds, then require the electronegativity difference that exist between some metals and nonmetals. Being magnesium an alkaline earth metal, its electronegativity is very low. On the other hand, fluorine the first element of the group 17, has the highest electronegativity of all the elements.Thus magnesium and fluorine will have enough electronegativity difference to justify the exchange of electrons, forming ions and, consequently, ionic compounds.

A 265-mL flask contains pure helium at a pressure of 751 torrs. A second flask with a volume of 465 mL contains pure argon at a

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Total Pressure = 745.6 torr

Partial Pressure of He = 272.8 torr

Partial Pressure of Ar = 472.8 torr

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of the flask helium = 265 mL

Pressure in the helium flask = 751 torr = 751/760 atm

Volume of the flask argon = 465 mL

Pressure in the argon flask = 727 torr = 727/760 atm

The total pressure exerted by a gaseous mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of each individual component in a gas mixture.

Step 2: Calculate total volume

Total volume = 265 mL + 465 mL = 730 mL = 0.730 L

Step 3: Boyle's Law:

P1V1=P2V2

⇒ with P1 = total pressure gas exerts in its own flask

⇒ with V1 = volume of flask with stopcock valve closed

⇒ with P2 = partial pressure of gas exerts on total volume of both flasks when stopcock valve is opened

⇒ with V2 = total volume of both flasks with stopcock valve opened

Helium using Boyle's Law equation from above:

P1V1=P2V2

⇒ with P1 = Pressure of helium = 751 /760 = 0.98816 atm

⇒ with V1 = volume of helium = 0.265 L

⇒ with P2 = The new partial pressure of helium

⇒ with V2 = total volume = 0.730 L

(0.98816 atm)(0.265L)=P2(0.730L)

P2=0.359 atm

Argon using Boyle's Law equation from above:

P1V1=P2V2

⇒ with P1 = Pressure of argon = 727/760 = 0.95658 atm

⇒ with V1 = volume of argon = 0.465 L

⇒ with P2 = The new partial pressure of argon

⇒ with V2 = total volume = 0.730 L

(0.95658 atm)(0.465L)=P2(0.730L)

P2=0.609 atm

Step 4: Convert pressure in atm to torr

Pressure helium = 0.359 atm = 272.8 torr

Pressure argon = 0.609 atm = 472.8 torr

Step 5: Calculate Total pressure

Ptotal = P(He)+P(Ar)

⇒ Pt = total pressure of the gas mixture

⇒ P(He) = partial pressure of Helium

⇒ P(Ar) = partial pressure of Argon

Pt = 272.8 torr + 472.8 torr

Pt = 745.6 torr

Total Pressure = 745.6 torr

Partial Pressure of He = 272.8 torr

Partial Pressure of Ar = 472.8 torr

A chemistry graduate student is given 500. mL of a 0.20 M chloroacetic acid (HCH2ClCO2) solution. Chloroacetic acid is a weak ac

zhenek [66]

Answer:

12 g of choloracetic acid

Explanation:

The buffer equilibrium is:

HCH₂ClCO₂ ⇄ CH₂ClCO₂⁻ + H⁺

pka= -log ka =

Ka: 1,3x10⁻³ = [CH₂ClCO₂⁻] [H⁺] / [HCH₂ClCO₂]

By Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pka + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]

3,01 = 2,89 + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]

1,318 = [A⁻] / [HA]

As molar concentration of chloroacetic acid (HA) is 0,20M

[A⁻] = 0,26 mol/L

The volume is 500 mL ≡ 0,5 L

0,26mol/L × 0,5 L = 0,13 moles of chloroacetic acid. In grams:

0,13 mol × (94,5g / 1mol) = 12 g of choloracetic acid

I hope it helps!

Assessment timer and count

Aneli [31]

Answer:

I think it's the last one.

Explanation:

Because gravity is what makes our planets stay still and stops our planets from dropping and as they orbit around the sun that's what keeps the moon from bumping into earth. I hope this helps and makes sense.
