Answer: Hydrogen bond.

Explanation: Water is a polar covalent molecule in which two hydrogen atoms are bonded to central oxygen atom via single covalent bonds. So, metallic, nonpolar covalent or ionic choices are not correct. The only correct choice is hydrogen.

Hydrogen bonding is present in ice as we know that hydrogen bonding takes place when hydrogen is bonded to the more electron negative atoms(F, O or N). Density of ice decreases as the molecules are farther from each other due to the presence of hydrogen bonding. This hydrogen bonding breaks when ice melts to water and the molecules comes closer.

calculate the mass of 120cc nitrogen present at STP. how many number of molecules are present in it?

Stells [14]

Answer:

$0.15008\ \text{g}$

$3.23\times 10^{21}$

Explanation:

1 mol of nitrogen at STP = 22.4 L = 22400 cc

n = Mol of $N_2$ = $\dfrac{120}{22400}=0.00536\ \text{mol}$

M = Molar mass of $N_2$ = $28\ \text{g/mol}$

$N_A$ = Avogadro's number = $6.022\times 10^{23}\ \text{mol}^{-1}$

Mass of $N_2$ is

$m=nM\\\Rightarrow m=0.00536\times 28\\\Rightarrow m=0.15008\ \text{g}$

Mass of the nitrogen is $0.15008\ \text{g}$

Number of molecules is given by

$nN_A=0.00536\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=3.23\times 10^{21}\ \text{molecules}$

The number of molecules present in it are $3.23\times 10^{21}$

Which of the following has the most atoms per mole?

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

e) Na₃PO₄

Explanation:

a) BaSO₄

1 mole of BaSO ₄ = 6.022×10²³ molecules

1 mole of BaSO ₄ contain 1 atom of Ba one atom of S and four atoms of O.

Total number of atoms = 6 atoms

6.022×10²³ × 6 atoms = 36.132 ×10²³ atoms

b) NaNO₂

1 mole of NaNO₂= 6.022×10²³ molecules

1 mole of NaNO₂ contain 1 atom of Na one atom of N and two atoms of O.

Total number of atoms = 4 atoms

6.022×10²³ × 4 atoms = 24.088 ×10²³ atoms

c)KMnO₄

1 mole of KMnO₄ = 6.022×10²³ molecules

1 mole of KMnO₄ contain 1 atom of K one atom of Mn and four atoms of O.

Total number of atoms = 6 atoms

6.022×10²³ × 6 atoms = 36.132 ×10²³ atoms

d) KCl

1 mole of KCl = 6.022×10²³ molecules

1 mole of KCl contain 1 atom of K one atom of Cl.

Total number of atoms = 2 atoms

6.022×10²³ × 2 atoms = 12.044 ×10²³ atoms

e) Na₃PO₄

1 mole of Na₃PO₄ = 6.022×10²³ molecules

1 mole of Na₃PO₄ contain 3 atom of Na one atom of P and four atoms of O.

Total number of atoms = 8 atoms

6.022×10²³ × 8 atoms = 48.176×10²³ atoms

How can I differentiate between Ionic compounds, molecular compounds, and acids given only the formula? I need to be able to fin

VikaD [51]

You can differentiate between ionic, covalent and molecular compounds by the fact that ionic compounds contain elements that include both a metal and a nonmetal. Molecular compounds contain both non metals covalently bonded to each other. While acids most often on their chemical formula start with the element of Hydrogen - H.

For Eg - sulphuric acid
H2SO4
hydrochloric acid - HCl.

How many grams of oxygen are there in 45.7 grams of Ba(NO2),?

Flauer [41]

I’m assuming you mean barium nitrite, Ba(NO2)2.

First convert grams of Ba(NO2)2 to moles using the molar mass of Ba(NO2)2. Then use the mole ratio of 4 moles of oxygen per 1 mole of Ba(NO2)2 to convert to moles of oxygen. Then use the molar mass of oxygen to convert to grams of oxygen.

45.7 g Ba(NO2)2 • 1 mol Ba(NO2)2 / 229.35 g Ba(NO2)2 • 4 mol O / 1 mol Ba(NO2)2 • 16.0 g O / 1 mol O = 12.8 g oxygen
