Does Na2 gas posses metallic character? Explain your answer..​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ratling [72]1 year ago
4 0

Explanation:

<h3>It contains Na2 molecules and the atoms in this molecule are held together by a purely covalent bond because the electronegativity of the two atoms is identical.</h3><h3 /><h3>Metallic bonding would not kick in until you make clusters of quite a few atoms. Such clusters would likely not be very stable because thermodynamically the larger the clump of material the more stable it gets. So they tend to coalesce until you have chunk of metal.</h3><h3 /><h3>Metallic bonding is in a sense a form of covalent bonding, but it is very collective (delocalized over a great many atoms) and electron deficient (there are more states than electrons to fill them up with, leading to conductive properties. This means that “a metallic bond” is a bit of an oxymoron like a forest with only one tree.</h3>

Item 5 A solution of methanol, CH3OH, in water is prepared by mixing together 128 g of methanol and 108 g of water. The mole fra
Basile [38]

Answer:

Mole fraction of methanol will be closest to 4.

Explanation:

Given, Mass of methanol = 128 g

Molar mass of methanol = 32.04 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

Moles= \frac{128\ g}{32.04\ g/mol}

Moles\ of\ methanol = 3.995\ mol

Given, Mass of water = 108 g

Molar mass of water = 18.0153 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

Moles= \frac{108\ g}{18.0153\ g/mol}

Moles\ of\ water= 5.995\ mol

So, according to definition of mole fraction:

Mole\ fraction\ of\ methanol=\frac {n_{methanol}}{n_{methanol}+n_{water}}

Mole\ fraction\ of\ methanol=\frac{3.995}{3.995+5.995}=0.39989

<u>Mole fraction of methanol will be closest to 4.</u>

Mars2501 [29]
The answer is (4) Add enough solvent to 30.0 g of solute to make 1.0 L solution. The molarity is calculated using volume of the solution. When solute dissolving, the total volume will change. So the final volume of solution need to be 1.0 L.

Explain how your experimental data for Rf values are, or are not, consistent with your predictions of enantiomeric and diastereo
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

Answer is explained below.

Explanation:

As (+) menthol and (-) menthol are enantiomers whose physical properties are same except optical activity so we can expect they have similar Rf values.

Whereas diastereomers have different physical properties and different Rf values.

For example when the (+) menthol , (-) menthol, isomenthol and neomenthol undergo TLC (thin layer chromatography) the

Rf values of.(+menthol) = .447

Rf (+isomenthol) = .395

Rf (+neomenthol)= .487

Rf (-menthol) = .434

The above data shows that (+) menthol and (-) menthol have almost same Rf values and vary a little i.e 0.447 and 0.437. So we can conclude them as enantiomers

Whereas (+) menthol or (+) neomenthol or (+) isomenthol i.e 0.447 , 0.395 and 0.487 have different Rf values. We can conclude them as diasteromers.

(+) menthol and (-) menthol - enantiomers

(+) menthol and (+) neomenthol- diastereomers

(-) menthol and (+) isomenthol - diastereomers

Classify each of the following aqueous solutions as a nonelectrolyte, weak electrolyte, or strong electrolyte.
OLEGan [10]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

a) LiClO4 - Strong electrolyte

b) HClO -Weak electrolyte

c) CH3CH2CH2OH - Non-electrolyte

d) HClO3 - Strong electrolyte

e) CuSO4 -strong electrolyte

f) C12H22O11-Non-electrolyte

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • An electrolyte is a substance in an aqueous or molten form which is decomposed by passing an electric current through it. Electrolytes ionize to ions which are responsible for the conduction of electric charge.
  • Non-electrolytes are substances that do not ionize into cations and anions and thus do not conduct. They include molecular compounds such as gases.
  • Electrolytes may be weak or strong depending on the level of ionization.
  • Weak electrolytes are those that undergo partial ionization while strong electrolytes completely ionize.
