what is a unique characteristic of covalent bonding between nonmetal atoms
a) atoms give away electrons to reach a stable octet
b)atoms share valence electrons with neighboring atoms to reach a stable octect.
c)atoms gain electrons to reach a stable octet
d)delocalized electrons move freely among many positive atoms creating a ''sea'' of electrons

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer isssssssssssssss DRUM ROLL PLEASEEE

Explanation:

B

Answer 2

Considering the definition of covalent bonds,  the correct answer is option b): atoms share valence electrons with neighboring atoms to reach a stable octect.

Covalent bonds are the forces that hold non-metallic atoms together. These atoms have many electrons at their outermost level (valence electrons) and have a tendency to gain electrons rather than give them up, to acquire the stability of the noble gas electronic structure. Therefore, non-metallic atoms cannot give electrons to each other to form ions.

In other words, a covalent bond is a force that joins two atoms of non-metallic elements to form a molecule. Atoms share pairs of electrons from their most superficial shell (called the valence shell) to achieve the stability of the molecule that has been formed with the bond and thus comply with the octet rule.

In summary, the correct answer is option b): atoms share valence electrons with neighboring atoms to reach a stable octect.

Given the unbalanced equation: ____ CaSO4 + ___AlCl3 --> ____ Al2(SO4)3 + _____ CaCl2
What is the coefficient of Al2(SO4)3 when the equation is completely balanced using the smallest whole-number coefficients?

Answers

Answer:

3CaSO₄  + 2AlCl₃ →  Al₂(SO₄)₃   +   3CaCl₂

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as:

        _CaSO₄  + _AlCl₃ →  _Al₂(SO₄)₃   +   _CaCl₂

To balance the reaction above, let us a mathematical approach;

         assign coefficients a, b, c and d to the species;

       aCaSO₄  + bAlCl₃ →  cAl₂(SO₄)₃   +   dCaCl₂

Conserving Ca : a  = d  

                     S:  a = 3c

                     O:  4a  = 12c

                     Al:    b = 2c

                     Cl:   3b = 2d

So;

 let a = 1, d = 1, c   = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] , b  = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]  

  Multiply by 3 through;

 a = 3, b  = 2, c  = 1 and d  = 3

  3CaSO₄  + 2AlCl₃ →  Al₂(SO₄)₃   +   3CaCl₂

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Mass, m = 10.0g

Initial Temperature = 20°C

Final Temperature = 50°C

Energy = ?

Specific heat capacity, c = 4.18 J/g·°C

The relationship between these quantities is given by the equation;

Answer:

SF4 -Covalent bond

BaBr2 - Ionic bond

Ca - Metallic bond

Explanation:

Sulphur and fluorine are non metals. Nonmetal atoms combine by the sharing of electrons. This is also called a covalent combination(bond).

In BaBr2, a metal is combined with a nonmetal. This combination involves a transfer of electrons from the metal to the nonmetal forming an ion pair. This is otherwise called an ionic bond.

Atoms of a metal are held together by strong metallic bonds that involves positively charged cations and a cloud of electrons.

How many grams of water are produced from the decomposition of 63 grams of lithium hydroxide
(LiOH)?

Answers

Answer:

18.65004 grams H2O

Explanation:

First, we need to write down the balanced chemical equation for the decomposition reaction:

2LiOH -> H2O + Li2O

Since we have grams of LiOH and we need to know the grams of water, we need to convert to moles since we can only compare moles to moles.

The amu of LiOH is 23.947.

The given grams of LiOH is 63.. To convert to moles, we will divide 63 by 23.947..

This gives us 2.6310 moles LiOH..

To convert to moles of H2O (and later grams of H2O), we will use the mole fractions from the balanced equation...

When we look at the balanced equation we can see that 2 moles of LIOH can produce 1 mol of Water, so:

2.6310 moles [tex]* \frac{1 molH_{2}O}{2 mol LiOH}[/tex] = 1.3155 moles H2O

Now we will convert from moles to grams (we must multiply by the amu)

1.3155 moles H2O = 18.65 grams H2O

According to stoichiometry of the chemical equation of decomposition of lithium hydroxide 23.6 g of water are produced from the decomposition of 63 grams of lithium hydroxide.

What is stoichiometry?

Stoichiometry is the determination of proportions of elements or compounds in a chemical reaction. The related relations are based on law of conservation of mass and law of combining weights and volumes.

Stoichiometry is used in quantitative analysis for measuring concentrations of substances present in the sample.It is useful in balancing chemical equations.

In the given example, as 47.9 g of lithium hydroxide produces 18 g water ,therefore 63 of lithium hydroxide will produce 63×18/47.9=23.6 g of water.

Thus, 23.6 g of water are produced from the decomposition of 63 grams of lithium hydroxide.

calculate the number of particles in each of the following a. 18 gram of O2 molecules b. 0.1 mole of Calcium atomic​

Answers

Answer:

3.39 x 10²³ particles

6.02 x 10²²particles

Explanation:

The problem here entails we find the number of particles in the given substances.

From the mole concept;

          1 mole of a substance contains 6.02 x 10²³ particles

a. 18g of O₂;

 We first find the number of moles of this substance first;

       Number of moles  = [tex]\frac{mass}{molar mass}[/tex]  

  Molar mass of O₂   = 2(16) = 32g/mol

      Number of moles  = [tex]\frac{18}{32}[/tex]   = 0.56mole

 So;

             1 mole of a substance contains 6.02 x 10²³ particles

            0.56 mole of  O₂ will contain 0.56 x 6.02 x 10²³ particles

                                                                   = 3.39 x 10²³ particles

b. 0.1mole of calcium atom:

        1 mole of a substance contains 6.02 x 10²³ particles

       0.1 mole of the substance will contain 0.1 x  6.02 x 10²³ particles

                                                                         = 6.02 x 10²²particles

A 5.5 kg rifle fires an 11 g bullet with a velocity of 1000 m/s. (a) What is the recoil velocity of the rifle? (b) If the shooter holds the rifle firmly against his shoulder, What will be the recoil velocity? Assume the mass of the shooter is 120 kg.
Please answer seriously (;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)​

Answers

Given,

Mass of a rifle = 5.5 kg

Mass of a bullet = 11 g

Speed of a bullet = 1000 m/s

To find,

(a) The recoil velocity of the rifle.

(b) If the shooter holds the rifle firmly against his shoulder, What will be the recoil velocity.

Solution,

(a) Let v₁ is the recoil velocity of the rifle. We can use the conservation of momentum to find it. The momentum of the system will remains conserved.

[tex]m_1v_1=m_2v_2\\\\v_1=\dfrac{m_2v_2}{m_1}\\\\v_1=\dfrac{0.011\times 1000}{5.5}\\\\v_1=2\ m/s[/tex]

So, the recoil velocity of the rifle is 2 m/s and it is in opposite direction of he bullet.

(b) Let V is the recoil velocity if the shooter holds the rifle firmly against his shoulder. Again using the conservation of momentum.

[tex]V=\dfrac{0.011\times 1000}{120}\\\\v=0.091\ m/s[/tex]

Therefore, this is the required solution.
