ElenaW [278]2 years ago

Answer :Solid in bottle a is ionic, solid in bottle b is molecular and solid in bottle c is ionic.

Explanation :

Ionic compound is formed when a metal atom donates one or more electrons to a non metal. This results in the formation of a cation ( a positive ion) and an anion ( a negative ion). These ions are bonded to each other by electrostatic attraction.

The intermolecular forces in case of a an ionic compound are very strong.

The melting point of a substance depends on how strongly the molecules are attracted to each other. Stronger the forces, higher is the melting point.

Therefore ionic compounds always have very high melting points.

On the other hand, covalent compounds have weak intermolecular forces. Therefore they have low melting points.

Based on above discussion, we can classify the given compounds as follows.

a) Solid in bottle a is Ionic as it has high melting point.

b) Solid in bottle b is molecular as it has low melting point.

c) Solid in bottle c is Ionic as it has high melting point.

If a person looking at a poster sees green instead of yellow and doesn't see red at all, this person most likely has color blind
Inga [223]
<span>People with protanopia are unable to sense any ‘red’ light, people with deuteranopia do not sense ‘green’ light and people with tritanopia cannot sense ‘blue’ light. If a person perceives the color green, then the yellow sensitive nerves must work somewhat effectively since green is a combination of yellow and blue. Red-sensitive nerves are most likely not responding properly for this person. The answer is C.</span>

Based on the activity series provided, which reactants will form products?
allsm [11]

Answer: CuI₂ + Br₂

Explanation:

1) The activity series F > Cl > Br > I means that F is the most active and I is the least active of those four elements (the halogens, group 17 in the periodic table).

The activity is a measure of how eager is an element to react compared to other elements in the series in a single replacement reaction.

2) Choice 1: CuI₂ + Br₂

Since the activity of Br is higher than that of I, Br will react with CuI₂, displacing I, which will be left alone, as per this chemical equation:

CuI₂ + Br₂ → CuBr₂ + I₂

Being I less active than Br, it cannot displace Br in CuBr₂.

3) Choice 2: Cl₂ + AlF₃

Being Cl less active than F, the former will not displace the latter, and the reaction will not proceed.

4) Choice 3: Br₂ + NaCl

Again, being Br less active than Cl, the former will not displace the latter, and the reaction will not proceed.

5) Choice 4: CuF₂ + I₂

Once more, being I less active than F, the former will not displace the latter, and the reaction will not proceed.

Cherylanne mixes together Chemical A and Chemical B in a test tube, forming Chemical C. The mixture instantly turns cool to the
Anarel [89]

Answer:

Chemicals A and B form an endothermic reaction, and chemicals C and D form an exothermic reaction.

Explanation:

The reaction that produced chemical C is an endothermic reaction whereas, the reaction between C and D is an exothermic one.

An exothermic change is one in which heat is liberated to the surroundings. So the surrounding becomes hotter at the end of the reaction.

An endothermic reaction is a change in which heat is absorbed from the surrounding and hence the surrounding colder at the end of the change.

  • We can see that the first reaction is endothermic.
  • The second reaction is exothermic.
