Explanation:

The given reaction equation will be as follows.

  H_{2}SO_{3} \rightarrow H_{2}O + SO_{2}

Now, number of atoms on reactant side are as follows.

  • H = 2
  • S = 1
  • O = 3

Number of atoms on product side are as follows.

  • H = 2
  • S = 1
  • O = 3

Therefore, this equation is balanced since atoms on both reactant and product sides are equal.

Thus, we can conclude that there is one sulfur atom in the products.

In a few sentences, describe the molecular polarity and the intermolecular forces present in ammonium lauryl sulfate.
Sergio [31]

Answer:

A polar molecule is a molecule in which one end of the molecule is slightly positive, while the other end is slightly negative. A diatomic molecule that consists of a polar covalent bond, such as HF, is a polar molecule. The two electrically charged regions on either end of the molecule are called poles, similar to a magnet having a north and a south pole. A molecule with two poles is called a dipole. Hydrogen fluoride is a dipole. A simplified way to depict polar molecules is pictured below When placed between oppositely charged plates, polar molecules orient themselves so that their positive ends are closer to the negative plate and their negative ends are closer to the positive plate

Experimental techniques involving electric fields can be used to determine if a certain substance is composed of polar molecules and to measure the degree of polarity.

For molecules with more than two atoms, the molecular geometry must also be taken into account when determining if the molecule is polar or nonpolar. is a comparison between carbon dioxide and water. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a linear molecule. The oxygen atoms are more electronegative than the carbon atom, so there are two individual dipoles pointing outward from the C atom to each O atom. However, since the dipoles are of equal strength and are oriented in this way, they cancel each other out, and the overall molecular polarity of CO2 is zero.

Water is a bent molecule because of the two lone pairs on the central oxygen atom. The individual dipoles point from the H atoms toward the O atom. Because of the shape, the dipoles do not cancel each other out, and the water molecule is polar. In the figure, the net dipole is shown in blue and points upward.

Some other molecules are shown below (Figure below). Notice that a tetrahedral molecule such as CH4 is nonpolar. However, if one of the peripheral H atoms is replaced by another atom that has a different electronegativity, the molecule becomes polar. A trigonal planar molecule (BF3) may be nonpolar if all three peripheral atoms are the same, but a trigonal pyramidal molecule (NH3) is polar.

At 10.°C, 20.g of oxygen gas exerts a pressure of 2.1atm in a rigid, 7.0L cylinder. Assuming ideal behavior, if the temperature
Alja [10]

Answer:

Final pressure = 2.3225 atm

Amontons’s law states that

At constant volume and number of molecules, the pressure of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature

Explanation:

Temperature causes increased excitement of gas molecules increasing the number of collisions with the walls of the container which is sensed as increase in pressure

Amontons’s law: P/T = Constant at constant V and n

That is P1/T1 = P2/T2

Where temperature is given in Kelvin

Hence T1 of 10°C = 273.15 + 10 = 283.15K

Also temperature T2 of 40°C = 313.15 K

Hence

P2 = (P1/T1)×T2 = (2.1/283.15)×313.15 = 2.3225 atm

When 100 ml of 1.0 M Na3PO4 is mixed with 100 ml of 1.0 M AgNO3,a yellow precipitate forms and Ag+ becomes negligibly small. Whi
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Number of millimoles of Na3PO4 = 1 × 100 = 100

Number of millimoles of AgNO3 = 1 × 100 = 100

When 1 mole of Na3PO4 is dissociated we get 3 moles of sodium ions and 1 mole of phosphate ion

When 1 mole of AgNO3 is dissociated, we get 1 mole of Ag+ and 1 mole of NO3-

As Ag+ concentration is negligible, the dissociated Ag+ ion must have form the precipitate with phosphate ion and as number of moles of Ag+ and phosphate ion are same, therefore the concentration of phosphate ion must be negligible

Here as 100 millimoles of Na3PO4 is there, we get 300 millimoles of Na+ and 100 millimoles of PO43-

And as 100 millimoles of AgNO3 is there, we get 100 millimoles of Ag+ and 100 millimoles of NO3-

∴ Increasing order of concentration will be  PO43- < NO3- < Na+
