Does Na2 gas posses metallic character? Explain your answer..​

Chemistry
1 answer:
alisha [2.9K]2 months ago

Clarification:

The Na2 molecules comprise atoms that are connected by a purely covalent bond since both atoms have the same electronegativity.

Metallic bonding only manifests when several atoms cluster together. Such aggregates may not tend to be stable, as larger masses of material typically exhibit greater stability thermodynamically. Therefore, they often merge until a significant metal chunk is formed.

In some ways, metallic bonding can be considered a variant of covalent bonding, but it is more communal—delocalized across numerous atoms—and electron deficient (there are more energy states than available electrons, which contributes to conductive traits). This implies that the term “metallic bond” might appear contradictory, akin to referring to a forest with a single tree.

If three potatoes have a mass of 667 g, what will be the mass of 100 potatoes? A. 200 kg B. 22.2 kg C. 2223 g D. 20.0 kg
alisha [2963]

Response: B- 22.2 kg

Explanation: Given that three potatoes weigh 667 g, it's implied that one potato weighs 667/3= 222.33 g (approximately), leading to the conclusion for 100 potatoes being 100*222.33= 22233 g, which converts to 22.2 kg since 1 g=1000 kg

What mass of water in grams will fill a tank 100 cm long, 50 cm wide, and 30 cm high? Knowing that the density of water is 1 g/m
castortr0y [3046]

The mass is 150,000 grams. Multiply 100 by 50 by 30 to determine the container's volume, which equals 150,000 cm^3. Since a milliliter is equivalent to one cubic centimeter, and given that the density of water is one gram per milliliter, it follows that the mass of water is 150,000 grams.

A student puts 0.020 mol of methyl methanoate into an empty and rigid 1.0 L vessel at 450 K. The pressure is measured to be 0.74
KiRa [2933]

Explanation:

Initial moles of ethanoic acid = 0.020 mol

At equilibrium, half of the ethanoic acid molecules have reacted.

Thus, moles of ethanoic acid reacted = 0.020 mol * (50% / 100%)

                                                                     = 0.010 mol

Moles of ethanoic acid remaining = 0.020 mol - 0.010 mol = 0.010 mol

The moles of product (CH3COOH)^{2} gas formed are determined as follows:

0.010 mol CH3COOH * (1 mol (CH3COOH)^{2} / 2 mol CH3COOH)

= 0.005 mol (CH3COOH)^{2}

Consequently, the total moles of gas present in the vessel at equilibrium are 0.010 mol CH3COOH and 0.005 mol (CH3COOH)^{2}

Total gas moles at equilibrium = 0.010 mol + 0.005 mol = 0.015 mol

Next, let’s determine the pressure:

0.020 mol of gas has a pressure of 0.74 atm; so under the same conditions, we find the pressure exerted by 0.015 mol of gas:

P1/n1 = P2/n2

P2 = P1*(n2 / n1)

      = 0.74 atm * (0.015 mol / 0.020 mol)

     = 0.555 atm

In a titration experiment, H2O2(aq) reacts with aqueous MnO4-(aq) as represented by the equation above. The dark purple KMnO4 so
Alekssandra [3086]

Respuesta:

El oxígeno en H2O2 es la especie que se reduce a H2O y se oxida a O2.

Explicación:

5 H2O2(aq) + 2 MnO4-(aq) + 6 H+(aq) → 2 Mn2+(aq) + 8 H2O(l) + 5 O2(g)

La oxidación se define como la pérdida de electrones. La oxidación provoca un aumento en el número de oxidación de un elemento.

Si se descompone esta reacción en sus mitades de reducción y oxidación

Se observa que, de los reactivos mencionados anteriormente,

H202 se convierte en H2O y O2

MnO4- + H+ se convierte en Mn2+ y H2O

El número de oxidación de Mn cambia de +7 en MnO4- a +2 en Mn2+ (lo que indica evidentemente una reducción)

El oxígeno en MnO4- no cambia su número de oxidación, ya que se mantiene en -2

El número de oxidación del oxígeno cambia de -1 en H2O2 a -2 en H2O y 0 en O2

El hidrógeno en H2O2 no cambia su número de oxidación, y su número de oxidación se mantiene en +1 tanto en H2O2 como en H2O.

Esto indica que H2O2 sufre tanto oxidación como reducción; más específicamente, el oxígeno en H2O2 es la especie que se reduce a H2O y se oxida a O2.

Espero que esto ayude
