Is selenium tetrafluoride an ionic or covalent bond?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Synthesis

The first reported synthesis of selenium tetrafluoride was by Paul Lebeau in 1907, who treated selenium with fluorine:[1]

Se + 2 F2 → SeF4

A synthesis involving more easily handled reagents entails the fluorination of selenium dioxide with sulfur tetrafluoride:[2]

SF4 + SeO2 → SeF4 + SO2

An intermediate in this reaction is seleninyl fluoride (SeOF2).

Other methods of preparation include fluorinating elemental selenium with chlorine trifluoride:

3 Se + 4 ClF3 → 3 SeF4 + 2 Cl2

Structure and bonding

Selenium in SeF4 has an oxidation state of +4. Its shape in the gaseous phase is similar to that of SF4, having a see-saw shape. VSEPR theory predicts a pseudo-trigonal pyramidal disposition of the five electron pairs around the selenium atom. The axial Se-F bonds are 177 pm with an F-Se-F bond angle of 169.2°. The two other fluorine atoms are attached by shorter bonds (168 pm), with an F-Se-F bond angle of 100.6°. In solution at low concentrations this monomeric structure predominates, but at higher concentrations evidence suggests weak association between SeF4 molecules leading to a distorted octahedral coordination around the selenium atom. In the solid the selenium center also has a distorted octahedral environment.

Reactions

In HF, SeF4 behaves as a weak base, weaker than sulfur tetrafluoride, SF4 (Kb= 2 X 10−2):

SeF4 + HF → SeF3+ + HF2−; (Kb = 4 X 10−4)

Ionic adducts containing the SeF3+ cation are formed with SbF5, AsF5, NbF5, TaF5, and BF3.[3] With caesium fluoride, CsF, the SeF5− anion is formed, which has a square pyramidal structure similar to the isoelectronic chlorine pentafluoride, ClF5 and bromine pentafluoride, BrF5.[4] With 1,1,3,3,5,5-hexamethylpiperidinium fluoride or 1,2-dimethylpropyltrimethylammonium fluoride, the SeF62− anion is formed. This has a distorted octahedral shape which contrasts to the regular octahedral shape of the analogous SeCl62−. [5]

Answers

Answer:

Atoms can gain, lose, or share electrons during a chemical change. Chemical changes do not affect the nucleus of an atom. For this reason, an atom has the ability to retain its properties or identity even if the number of electrons is different. Therefore, the atom's identity won't change.

Shanika is an engineer at an amusement park who is experimenting with changes to the setup for a magnetic roller coaster ride. In one ride, there are two identical roller coaster cars (orange and green) that start on opposite sides of a large magnet located at the center of a station. Shanika wants to get the largest increase in potential energy she can by moving one car one space to the left or the right. Shanika can move the orange car to point A or point B, or she can move the green car to point C or point D. Which movement should she make? Why will that movement result in the largest increase in potential energy? Describe the magnetic force that will act on the roller coaster car she moves.

Answers

Answer:

Shanika should move the orange coaster car to point B. This movement will result in the largest increase in potential energy. This is because the carts are repelling, which means to increase the potential energy you have to go against the magnetic field. Because the carts are being repelled from the centre magnet to go against the magnetic field you would move the cart closer to the magnet. In this case, moving the orange cart to point b would increase the potential energy greater than any other move.

Explanation:

what i meant in the last sentence was that moving the orange cart to b (closer to centre magnet) would end in a greater potential energy change than moving the other, green, cart closer. This is because of the distances between the carts and the centre magnet. Potential energy does not increase linearly meaning that if a cart is one cart is an inch away from the magnet and another is a foot, if you moved both magnets a cm closer to the centre magnet the one an inch away would have a larger potential energy change.

What is atomic radius?

Atomic radius is the distance is the distance from the nucleus to the valence orbital. The atomic radius depends on the electronegativity and number of electrons in the atom.

In periodic table, atomic radius decreases from  left to right because, the electronegativity that is the ability of atomic nucleus to attracts its electron increases and thereby the atoms shrinks.

Down a group the number of shells increases and thereby electrons are more screened from the nuclear attractive pulling. Therefore in the group from fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine, iodine has the less electronegativity and thus largest radius.

A 200.0-mL sample of helium gas is in a cylinder with a movable piston at 110 kPa and 275 K. The piston is pushed in until the sample has a volume of 95.0 mL. The new temperature of the gas is 310. K. What is the new pressure of the sample? a)51.1 kPa b)261 kPa c)249 kPa d)274 kPa

Answers

Answer:

Option B. 261 KPa.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V1) = 200 mL

Initial pressure (P1) = 110 kPa

Initial temperature (T1) = 275 K.

Final volume (V2) = 95 mL

Final temperature (T2) = 310 K

Final pressure (P2) =?

The new pressure (P2) can be obtained by using the following formula as illustrated below:

P1V1 /T1 = P2V2 /T2

110 × 200/275 = P2 × 95/310

22000 / 275 = P2 × 95/310

80 = P2 × 95/310

Cross multiply

80 × 310 = P2 × 95

24800 = P2 × 95

Divide both side by 95

P2 = 24800/95

P2 = 261 KPa.

Thus, the new pressure of the gas is 261 KPa.

UCI Chemistry researchers, Prof. F. Sherwood Rowland and Dr. Mario Molina werefirst to discovered in 1973 that chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) were depleting the Earth’sozone layer when released into the atmosphere. Once they reach the stratosphere, Clis released from the CFCs molecules by interaction with UV light. Free Cl atoms areable to react with ozone in a catalytic cycle that converts O3into the more stable O2.It is estimated that a single Cl atom is able to react with∼100000 O3molecules.Although CFCs production was banned in 1996, there are still a substantial numberof motor vehicle air conditioners (MVACs) that use CFC-12 (CF2Cl2) as refrigerant.The average CFC-12 emission rate from operating MVACs has been estimated tobe 59.5 mg per hour per vehicle (Zhang et al.Environ. Sci. Technol. Lett.2017).How much chlorine, in kg, is added to the atmosphere in a year due to 100 millionMVACs using CFC-12 as refrigerant?

Answers

Answer:

15.27895 x 10⁶kg of chlorine radical is added to the atmosphere in a year due to 100 million MVACs                                                                                              

Explanation:

Chlorofluorocarbons (CF₂Cl₂) from refrigerants produce chlorine radicals according to the following equation

         CF₂Cl₂ → CF2Cl  + Cl ⁻ .........(1)

From equation 1, one mole of CF₂Cl₂ produces one mole of Chlorine radical

From the question,

The emission rate of CF₂Cl₂ is 59.5mg/hour/MVAC

In one day the emission rate would be 59.5 x 24hours

                                                                  = 1428mg/day

In one year, the emission rate would be 1428mg/day x 365days

                                                                 =  521220mg/year

                                                                   = 521.220g/year/MVAC

Therefore the emission rate for 100 million MVAC using CF₂CL₂ in a year is

                                                                    = 52122 x 10⁶g/year/MVAC

                                                                    = 52122 x 10³kg/year/MVAC

The molar mass of CF₂CL₂                       = 120.913g/mol

No of moles  of CF₂CL₂                              = mass/ molar mass

                                                                     = 52122 x 10⁶g / 120.913g/mol

                                                                      = 431 x 10⁶ moles of CF₂Cl₂

From equation 1,  since one mole of CF₂Cl₂ produces one mole of Chlorine radical, it implies that

431 x 10⁶ moles of CF₂Cl₂ would produce 431 x 10⁶ moles of chlorine radical,

Therefore, to find the mass of chlorine radical produced, we use the formula

No of moles of chlorine radical  = mass/ molar mass

431 x10⁶ moles = mass of chlorine radical /molar mass of chlorine radical

431 x 10⁶ moles = mass/ 35.45g/mol

mass of chlorine =  431 x 10⁶ moles x 35.45 g/mol

                            =    15278.95 x 10⁶ g

In Kg, the mass    =   15,278.95 x 10³kg of cholrine radical

                             =   15.27895 x 10⁶ Kg of chlorine radical

Answers

Answer:

Gas.

Explanation:

Matter can be found in nature in three states: solid, liquid, and gas. The main difference between these three states is the separation of its molecules.

A solid has a definite form, its molecules are closely packed together and there is little to no movement between each molecule. When put in a container, it retains its form.

A liquid does not have a definite form, its molecules can move past another and they are not as close as in a solid, but it is not as loose either. When put in a container, it takes the shape of the container but it has a defined surface.

A gas does not have a definite form, its molecules are totally free from one another and the distance that separates them is much larger than the size they have. When placed in a container, they spread out completely and fill the entire shape of the container.

What will happen to the acquired energy of the ruler when you released its bent end?​

Answers

Answer:

When the Ruler is bent the energy stored in it will be potential energy, When the ruler will be released this potential energy will be then converted into the Kinetic energy as a result the ruler will move Vibrations.

The energy conservation law can be applied here

K1 + U1 = K2 + U2

K1 - initial kinetic energy

U1 - Initial potential energy

K2 - final kinetic energy

U2 - final potential energy

Energy is known commonly as the ability to do work or move a matter. The type of energy that is stored is called potential energy.

So a bent ruler often has higher energy than a flat ruler. If the ruler moves, it is having an some form of kinetic energy and thus a flying bent ruler is having higher amount of energy than the one that is not bent.

if the ruler is released at the bent end, the object or pebbles on it will fly. If you hold two positive charges near each other, they have potential energy because they will move if you release them.

If the object released is fired straight up into the air, it begins with a high kinetic energy. As it rises, it slows down due to the force of gravity pulling it toward the earth.

Due to the release, the object place on the ruler rises, its gravitational potential energy is therefore increasing and its kinetic energy is decreasing.

When the object reaches the top of its arc, it kinetic energy is zero and its potential energy is maximum.

Then gravity still to pull the object down the earth and the object will fall toward the earth and just as it falls down, its speed increases and its height decreases.

So, its kinetic energy will thus increases as it falls and its potential energy decreases.

When the object has returns to its original height, its kinetic energy will be the same as when it started upward.

Answers

Answer:

56 g of glucose

Explanation:

We can find the mass of glucose used as follows:

[tex] \%_{m/m} = \frac{m_{s}}{m_{sol}}\times 100 [/tex]   (1)

Where:

[tex]m_{s}[/tex] is the solute's mass =?    

[tex]m_{sol}[/tex] is the solution's mass = 2000 g  

% (m/m)= 2.8 %

By solving equation (1) for [tex]m_{s}[/tex] we have:

[tex] m_{s} = \frac{\%_{m/m}*m_{sol}}{100} = \frac{2.8*2000 g}{100} = 56 g [/tex]

Therefore, you used 56 g of glucose to make 2000 g of a solution of glucose in water.
