The bond order denotes:_____.1. the order of filling of bonding vs. antibonding orbitals. 2. the pattern in which Lewis dot structures of atoms combine to form bonds. 3. the order that orbitals are filled in electron configurations. 4. an estimate of the polarity or dipole moment of a bond. 5. an estimate of the strength of a bond.
Answer:
an estimate of the strength of a bond.
Explanation:
The bond order is given as;
1/2(number of bonding electrons - number of anti bonding electrons)
The bond order tells us about the strength of bond. As the bond order increases, so does the strength of the bond because atoms involved in bonding come closer to each other as the bond length decreases.
Hence, bond order is an index of bond strength. Triple bonds are stronger than double bonds which are stronger than single bonds.
Calculate the number of molecules of carbon (IV) oxide
produced when 10g of CaCO3 is treated with 100cm of
0.2mol dm HCl. The equation of the reaction is
CaCO3(s) + 2HCl(aq) → CaCl2(aq) + H2O(1) + CO2(g)
ICa=40 (=12 O=161
Answer: The mass of [tex]CO_2[/tex] produced is 0.44 g
Explanation:
For calcium carbonate:The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass. The equation used is:
[tex]\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}[/tex] ......(1)
Given mass of calcium carbonate = 10 g
Molar mass of calcium carbonate = 100 g/mol
Plugging values in equation 1:
[tex]\text{Moles of calcium carbonate}=\frac{10g}{100g/mol}=0.1 mol[/tex]
For HCl:The formula used to calculate molarity:
[tex]\text{Molarity of solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (mL)}}[/tex] .....(2)
Molarity of HCl = [tex]0.2mol/dm^3=0.2mol/L[/tex] (Conversion factor: [tex]1L=1dm^3[/tex]
Volume of solution = [tex]100cm^3=100mL[/tex] (Conversion factor: [tex]1mL=1cm^3[/tex]
Putting values in equation 2, we get:
[tex]0.2=\frac{\text{Moles of HCl}\times 1000}{100}\\\\\text{Moles of HCl}=\frac{0.2\times 100}{1000}=0.02mol[/tex]
For the given chemical reaction:
[tex]CaCO_3(s)+2HCl(aq)\rightarrow CaCl_2(aq)+H_2O(l)+CO_2(g)[/tex]
By stoichiometry of the reaction:
If 2 moles of HCl reacts with 1 mole of calcium carbonate
So, 0.02 moles of HCl will react with = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times 0.02=0.01mol[/tex] of calcium carbonate
As the given amount of calcium carbonate is more than the required amount. Thus, it is present in excess and is considered as an excess reagent.
Thus, HCl is considered a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of the product.
By the stoichiometry of the reaction:
If 2 moles of [tex]HCl[/tex] produces 1 mole of [tex]CO_2[/tex]
So, 0.02 moles of [tex]HCl[/tex] will produce = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times 0.02=0.01mol[/tex] of [tex]CO_2[/tex]
We know, molar mass of [tex]CO_2[/tex] = 44 g/mol
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
[tex]\text{Mass of }CO_2=(0.01mol\times 44g/mol)=0.44g[/tex]
Hence, the mass of [tex]CO_2[/tex] produced is 0.44 g

a. NaNO3, ionic
b. I2, nonpolar
c. sucrose (table sugar), polar
d. gasoline, nonpolar
e. vegetable oil, nonpolar
f. benzene, nonpolar
g. LiCl, ionic
h. Na2SO4, ionic
Answer:
a. NaNO3, ionic - water
b. I2, nonpolar - CCl4
c. sucrose (table sugar), polar - water
d. gasoline, nonpolar - CCl4
e. vegetable oil, nonpolar - CCl4
f. benzene, nonpolar -CCl4
g. LiCl, ionic - water
h. Na2SO4, ionic - water
Explanation:
Water is a polar substance. This means that it has the ability to dissolve other polar substances. Furthermore, water, even being made by covalent bonds, manages to dissolve ionic substances, because it is a molecule with a partial positive charge on one side, due to hydrogen, and a partial negative charge on the other side, due to the two molecules of oxygen. In this case, any polar or ionic substance has the ability to be dissolved in water, while any non-polar substance needs a non-polar liquid to be able to be dissolved, such as CCI4.

Regions of compressed air caused by the sound of an explosion correspond to the ___?_____ of the sound waves
Explanation:
Compressions and Rarefactions
A vibrating tuning fork is capable of creating such a longitudinal wave. As the tines of the fork vibrate back and forth, they push on neighboring air particles. The forward motion of a tine pushes air molecules horizontally to the right and the backward retraction of the tine creates a low-pressure area allowing the air particles to move back to the left.

Because of the longitudinal motion of the air particles, there are regions in the air where the air particles are compressed together and other regions where the air particles are spread apart
Regions of compressed air caused by the sound of an explosion correspond to the compressions and rarefactions of the sound waves.
What is a sound wave?A sound wave is any distortion in the movement of energy transported by a suitable environment (e.g., air).
Sound waves can be transmitted by different environments such as air (atmosphere) and aquatic media.In humans, sound waves are captured by the ear and then processed by the nervous system.In conclusion, regions of compressed air caused by the sound of an explosion correspond to the compressions and rarefactions of the sound waves.

Answer:
For A: The wavelength of the light is [tex]1.052\times 10^4nm[/tex]
For B: The number of photons per joule is [tex]2.063\times 10^{18}[/tex]
For C: The binding energy of a metal is 1.197 eV.
Explanation:
The equation used to calculate the energy of a photon follows:
[tex]E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}[/tex] ......(1)
where,
E = energy of a photon
h = Planck's constant = [tex]6.626\times 10^{-34}J.s[/tex]
c = speed of light = [tex]3\times 10^{8}m/s[/tex]
[tex]\lambda[/tex] = wavelength
For A:Given values:
E = [tex]1.89\times 10^{-20}J[/tex]
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
[tex]\lambda=\frac{(6.626\times 10^{-34}J.s)\times (3\times 10^8m/s)}{1.89\times 10^{-20}J}\\\\\lambda=1.052\times 10^{-5}m[/tex]
Converting the wavelength into nanometers, the conversion factor used is:
[tex]1m=10^9nm[/tex]
So, [tex]\lambda=1.052\times 10^{-5}m\times \frac{10^9nm}{1m}=1.052\times 10^4nm[/tex]
Hence, the wavelength of the light is [tex]1.052\times 10^4nm[/tex]
For B:Given values:
[tex]\lambda=410nm=410\times 10^{-9}m[/tex]
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
[tex]E=\frac{(6.626\times 10^{-34}J.s)\times (3\times 10^8m/s)}{410\times 10^{-9}m}\\\\E=4.848\times 10^{-19}J[/tex]
To calculate the number of photons, we use the equation:
[tex]\text{Number of photons}=\frac{\text{Total energy}}{\text{Energy of a photon}}[/tex]
Total energy = 1 J
Energy of a photon = [tex]4.848\times 10^{-19}J[/tex]
Putting values in the above equation:
[tex]\text{Number of photons}=\frac{1J}{4.848\times 10^{-19}J}\\\\\text{Number of photons}=2.063\times 10^{18}[/tex]
Hence, the number of photons per joule is [tex]2.063\times 10^{18}[/tex]
For C:To calculate the binding energy of a metal, we use the equation:
[tex]E=K+B[/tex] .....(2)
E = Total energy
K = Kinetic energy of a photon
B = Binding energy of metal
Converting the energy from joules to eV, the conversion factor used is:
[tex]1eV=1.602\times 10^{-19}J[/tex]
Using the above conversion factor:
[tex]K=2.93\times 10^{-19}J=1.829eV\\\\E=4.848\times 10^{-19}J=3.026eV[/tex]
Putting values in equation 2:
[tex]B=(3.026-1.829)eV=1.197eV[/tex]
Hence, the binding energy of a metal is 1.197 eV.

Answer:
(a) The moles of CuSO₄ is 3.125 × 10⁻³ moles.
(b) The moles of Cu is 3.125 × 10⁻³ moles.
(c) The mass of Cu is 0.2 g.
Explanation:
Given:
Mass of CuSO₄ = 0.5 g
Molar mass of CuSO₄ = 160 g/mol
The given balanced chemical equation is:
[tex]2Al+3CuSO_4\rightarrow 3Cu+Al_2(SO_4)_3[/tex]
Part (a):
Calculating the moles of CuSO₄.
[tex]\text{Moles of } CuSO_4=\frac{\text{Mass of }CuSO_4}{\text{Molar mass of }CuSO_4}\\\\\text{Moles of } CuSO_4=\frac{0.5g}{160g/mol}\\\\\text{Moles of } CuSO_4=3.125\times 10^{-3}mol[/tex]
Thus, the moles of CuSO₄ is 3.125 × 10⁻³ moles.
Part (b):
Calculating the moles of Cu.
From the balanced chemical equation, we conclude that:
As, 3 moles of CuSO₄ reacts to give 3 moles of Cu
So, 3.125 × 10⁻³ moles of CuSO₄ reacts to give 3.125 × 10⁻³ moles of Cu
Thus, the moles of Cu is 3.125 × 10⁻³ moles.
Part (c):
Calculating the mass of Cu.
Mass of Cu = Moles of Cu × Molar mass of Cu
Molar mass of Cu = 64 g/mol
Mass of Cu = (3.125 × 10⁻³ mole) × (64 g/mol)
Mass of Cu = 0.2 g
Thus, the mass of Cu is 0.2 g.

Steel is an alloy consisting of Fe with a small amount of C. Elemental Cr can be added to steel to make the steel less likely to rust
a. True
b. False
To make the steel less likely to rust, element like chromium is added to it. Therefore, the given statement is correct.
What is steel?Steel can be described as an alloy composed of iron with a few tenths of a percent of carbon to enhance its strength and fracture resistance. In steel, alloying elements inclusions within the iron act as hardening agents as they stop the movement of dislocations.
Stainless steels are corrosion- and oxidation-resistant but they need an additional 11% chromium. This type of steel is used in buildings, infrastructure, ships, trains, machines, electrical appliances, weapons, and rockets because of its high tensile strength and low cost.
It can take two crystalline forms body-centered cubic and face-centered cubic depending on the temperature. The interaction of the allotropes of iron with elements such as carbon gives the steel its range of unique properties.
Therefore, the given statement is true that chromium is used in steel formation.
