T<span>he charges themselves may not move fast, but the force upon them does. The electric field set up by the battery or generator propagates through the wires at the speed of light.

pogonyaev

Answer:

1)The proximity of the positively charged phosphorous and negatively charged carbon stabilizes the charges.

2) Inductive effects and resonance stabilize the negative charge

Explanation:

both atoms have full octets of electrons( I.e Carbon and say phosphorus). The result can be viewed as a structure in which two adjacent atoms are connected by both a covalent and an ionic bond; normally written X+–Y−. Ylides are thus 1,2-dipolar compounds, and a subclass of zwitterions

Material A has a small latent heat of fusion. Material B has a large heat of fusion. Which of the following statements is true?
Olin [163]
The correct answer would be the first option. Material A having a smaller latent heat of fusion would mean that it will take only less energy to phase change into the liquid phase. Latent of heat of fusion is the amount of energy needed of a substance to phase change from solid to liquid or liquid to solid.

The Mond process produces pure nickel metal via the thermal decomposition of nickel tetracarbonyl: Ni(CO)4 (l) → Ni (s) + 4CO (g
Yuki888 [10]

<u>Answer:</u> The volume of CO formed is 254.43 L.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}  

Given mass of Ni(CO)_4 = 444 g

Molar mass of Ni(CO)_4 = 170.73 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of }Ni(CO)_4=\frac{444g}{170.73g/mol}=2.60mol

For the given chemical reaction:

Ni(CO)_4(l)\rightarrow Ni(s)+4CO(g)

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of nickel tetracarbonyl produces 4 moles of carbon monoxide.

So, 2.60 moles of nickel tetracarbonyl will produce = \frac{4}{1}\times 2.60=10.4mol of carbon monoxide.

Now, to calculate the volume of the gas, we use ideal gas equation, which is:

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of the gas = 752 torr

V = Volume of the gas = ? L

n = Number of moles of gas = 10.4 mol

R = Gas constant = 62.364\text{ L Torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = Temperature of the gas = 22^oC=(273+22)K=295K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

752torr\times V=10.4mol\times 62.364\text{ L Torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 295K\\\\V=254.43L

Hence, the volume of CO formed is 254.43 L.

What is the amount of heat released by 1.00 gram of liquid water at 0°C when it changes to 1.00 gram of ice at 0°C?
QveST [7]

Answer:

334J/g

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Mass (m) = 1g

Specific heat of Fusion (Hf) = 334 J/g

Heat (Q) =?

Using the equation Q = m·Hf, we can obtain the heat released as follow:

Q = m·Hf

Q = 1 x 334

Q = 334J

Therefore, the amount of heat released is 334J
