<h2>The answers are CH_3O and HSO_4</h2>

Explanation:

Given -

a) The molecular formula of ethylene glycol -

    C_2H_6O_2

∴ The empirical formula of ethylene glycol will be -

    CH_3O

Given -

b) The molecular formula of per-oxo-disulfuric acid (a compound used in bleaching agents) -

    H_2S_2O_8

∴ The empirical formula of per-oxo-disulfuric acid will be -

    HSO_4

Hence, the answers are CH_3O and HSO_4.

Two atoms bonded together will remain some distance apart, minimizing the Question 1 options: A) potential energy of the bond. B
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

1) potential energy of the bond.

2) Linear

3) The electrons are transferred from K to Cl.

4) ClF

5) Oxygen

6) Electrolysis

7) Double displacement

Explanation:

As two atoms approach each other in a bonding situation, the potential energy of the bond is minimized as the internuclear distance of the bonding atoms decreases.

BeH2 has two electron domains and the central beryllium atom is sp2 hybridized. According to valence shell electron pair repulsion theory. A molecule having two regions of electron density will lead to a linear molecule.

KCl is an ionic compound hence there is a transfer of electrons from K(metal) to Cl(nonmetal).

ClF has partial charges because it contains a polar covalent bond. The partial charges arise from the dipole within the molecule. LiF is a pure ionic compound formed by transfer of electrons from Li to F. The species possess full and not partial charges.

When an oxygen atom bonds with another oxygen atom, what has been formed is a homonuclear covalent bond. Since the electro negativity of the both atoms is exactly the same, a pure covalent bond is formed. Recall that polar covalent bonds are formed when there is a significant electro negativity difference between the bonding atoms.

When direct current is passed through certain salt solutions during electrolysis, gases may be evolved and collected at the appropriate electrodes.

A double-replacement reaction is a reaction in which the cations and anions present in two different ionic compounds that are reacting together exchange their positions to form two new compounds on the product side. For instance, look at the reaction shown in question 7 as a typical example of this;

AgNO3 (s) + NaCl (s) → AgCl (s) + NaNO3 (s).

A tank holds 6.90 m3 of water. What is the volume in ft3? (3.28 ft = 1 m, Remember significant figures, but this answer does not
AleksAgata [21]

Volume of tank = 6.9 m^{3} (given)

Since, 1 m = 3.28 ft

So,  

1 m^{3} = 35.287 ft^{3}

For 6.9 m^{3}:

6.9\times 35.287 ft^{3} = 243.4803 ft^{3}

The significant rule for multiplication, states that the number of significant figures in the answer obtained by multiplication is determined by the value with the lowest number of significant digits.

Since, the minimum number of decimal places in the above multiplication operation is 1 so, the final result must be upto 1 decimal place only.

243.4803 ft^{3} \simeq 243.5 ft^{3}

Hence, volume in ft^{3} is 243.5.

How many grams of nano3 would you add to 500g of h2o in order to prepare a solution that is 0.500 molal in nano3?
VARVARA [1.3K]
When the concentration is expressed in molality, it is expressed in moles of solute per kilogram of solvent. Since we are given the mass of the solvent, which is water, we can compute for the moles of solute NaNO3.

0.5 m = x mol NaNO3/0.5 kg water
x = 0.25 mol NaNO3

Since the molar mass of NaNO3 is 85 g/mol, the mass is

0.25 mol * 85 g/mol = 21.25 grams NaNO3 needed
