Why is it harder to remove an electron from fluorine than from carbon, or, to put it another way, why are the valence electrons

of fluorine more strongly bound than those of carbon?

The valence electrons of both fluorine and
carbon are found at about the same distance
from their respective nuclei but the greater
positive charge of the fluorine nucleus attracts
its valence electrons more strongly.

In two or more complete sentences describe all of the van der Waals forces that exist between molecules of sulfur
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Dipole-Dipole attraction

Explanation:

Dipole-dipole attraction is a type of vander waals forces found in the molecules of sulfur dioxide.

Vander waals forces are weak attractions joining non-polar and polar molecules together. They are of two types:

  • London dispersion forces which are weak attractions found between non-polar molecules.
  • Dipole-Dipole attraction are the forces of attraction which exists between polar molecules. Such molecules have permanent dipoles. This implies that the positive pole of one molecule attracts the negative pole of another. This is what happens between the oxygen and sulfur molecules.

Your task is to measure the amount of energy evolved during the combustion of some hydrocarbon. Which of the following would be
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

c. Bomb calorimetry

Explanation:

The hydrocarbons are combustibles, it means that they can react in a combustion reaction to release energy. To measure this amount of energy, it's necessary equipment that the reaction can be placed in a controlled way. The bomb calorimeter is this equipment, which is an adiabatic vessel, with water. The heat is calculated based on the increase in the water temperature.

The coffee-cup calorimetry is used to measure the heat of a dissolution reaction and the bomb manometry is used to measure the pressure.

How many grams of sulfur must be burned to give 100.0 g of So2
andriy [413]

Answer:

50 g of S are needed

Explanation:

To star this, we begin from the reaction:

S(s) + O₂ (g) →  SO₂ (g)

If we burn 1 mol of sulfur with 1 mol of oxygen, we can produce 1 mol of sulfur dioxide. In conclussion, ratio is 1:1.

According to stoichiometry, we can determine the moles of sulfur dioxide produced.

100 g. 1mol / 64.06g = 1.56 moles

This 1.56 moles were orginated by the same amount of S, according to stoichiometry.

Let's convert the moles to mass

1.56 mol . 32.06g / mol = 50 g

The equilibrium constant, Kc, for the reaction H2 (g) + I2 (g) ⇄ 2HI (g) at 425°C is 54.8. A reaction vessel contains 0.0890 M H
Mars2501 [29]

Answer: The reaction is not at equilibrium and will proceed to make more products to reach equilibrium.

Explanation:  

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as K_{eq}

K is the constant of a certain reaction when it is in equilibrium, while Q is the reaction  quotient of activities of products and reactants at any stage other than equilibrium of a reaction.

For the given chemical reaction:

H_2(g)+I_2(g)\rightarrow 2HI(g)

The expression for Q is written as:

Q=\frac{[HI]^2}{[H_2]^1[I_2]^1}

Q=\frac{[0.0890]^2}{[0.215]^1[0.498]^1}

Q=0.074

Given : K_{eq} = 54.8

Thus as Q, the reaction will shift towards the right i.e. towards the product side.
