I believe the answer would be D. Metallic bonding forms a “sea” of free electrons. These free electrons are able to move around much more freely than electrons in a regular lattice formation. This ability of the electrons to move around easily means that metal can be hammered into sheets or pulled into wires and still be stable. So the free electrons allow the metal to have the property if malleability.

ipn [44]

Answer:

relative rate of diffusion is 1.05

Explanation:

According to Graham's law of difussion:

Rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to the square root of molecular weight of a molecule.

For two given molecules:

\frac{(rate)_{1}}{(rate)_{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{M_{2}} }{\sqrt{M_{1}}}

The given molecules are

Water = 18.01

Heavy water =20.03

Thus the relative rate of diffusion will be:

\frac{(rate)_{water}}{(rate)_{heavywater}}=\sqrt{ \frac{20.03}{18.01}}=1.05

The composition of dry air at sea level is 78.03% N2, 20.99% O2, and 0.033% CO2 by volume. (a) calculate the average molar mass
levacccp [35]

Answer:

the average molar mass of this air sample can be calculated as

addition of the product of the average molar weights of the component gases and their percentage compositions

1. Average Molar mass of Air = 0.7803 x 28 + 0.2099 x 32 + 0.00033 x 44 = 28.58g/mol

2. The partial pressures of N2, O2, and CO2 in atm.

From Ideal gas law, at stp, Volume of air V=22.4L/mol

PV =nRT

Since, at constant temperature and pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of the gas

Total Pressure P=1atm

Partial Pressure p = mol fraction x P

Volume of N2 = 0.7803 x 22.4L = 17.47L, Partial Pressure = 0.7803atm

Volume of O2 = 0.2099 x 22.4L = 4.68L  Partial Pressure = 0.209atm

Volume of CO2 = 0.00033 x 22.4L = 0.00739L, Partial Pressure = 0.033atm

Hydrogen bonds are approximately _____% of the bond strength of covalent c-c or c-h bonds.
Lelu [443]
Hydrogen bonds are approximately 5% of the bond strength of covalent C-C or C-H bonds.
Hydrogen bonds strength in water is approximately 20 kJ/mol, strenght of carbon-carbon bond is approximately 350 kJ/mol and strengh of carbon-hydrogen bond is approximately 340 kJ/mol.
20 kJ/350 kJ = 0,057 = 5,7 %.
