A. iodine C. fluorine F. bromine Explanation: Ionic bonds primarily form between metals and non-metals, typically where there exists a significant difference in electronegativity between the constituent atoms. This situation results in one atom seeking to gain electrons while the other donates them. For zinc to form a compound in a 1:2 ratio, its combining power must align accordingly. The prevalent oxidation state of zinc is +2. The other combining atoms must also possess the capacity to accept two electrons. The halogens fit perfectly here, as they require only one electron to achieve stability and are highly electronegative. Hence, if two halogens combine with zinc, they will result in an ionic bond. The relevant halogens include fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine which will yield compounds: ZnF₂, ZnBr₂, and ZnI₂.

When a heavy football player and a light one run into each other, which player hits the other with
Anarel [2989]

A heavier player collides with a lighter player using greater force.

The lighter player sustains more injuries following the impact.

Explanation:

A heavier player impacts a lighter player with greater intensity, resulting in more pronounced injuries to the lighter player post-collision.

Force is defined as mass multiplied by the acceleration of an object;

    Force = mass x acceleration

We observe that as mass and acceleration increase, the force exerted rises accordingly.

Clearly, the heavier player's mass surpasses that of the lighter player, leading to a greater force exerted upon collision.

Moreover, the lighter player is likely to be injured more severely after the clash. The momentum generated by the heavier player during the impact is considerably significant. Once they collide, the lighter player will certainly alter their speed and trajectory.

A 19.3-g mixture of oxygen and argon is found to occupy a volume of 16.2 l when measured at 675.9 mmhg and 43.4oc. what is the p
KiRa [2933]
<span>The partial pressure of oxygen is 438.0 mmHg. The ideal gas equation is expressed as PV = nRT where P represents pressure, V denotes volume, n is the number of moles, R is the ideal gas constant (8.3144598 (L*kPa)/(K*mol)), and T signifies absolute temperature. To convert from Celsius to Kelvin, we have 43.4 + 273.15 = 316.55 K. For the pressure conversion from mmHg to kPa: 675.9 mmHg * 0.133322387415 = 90.11260165 kPa. When solving for n using the ideal gas equation, we derive n = PV / (RT) which provides n = 90.11260165 kPa * 16.2 L / (8.3144598 (L*kPa)/(K*mol) * 316.55 K)= 1459.824147 L*kPa / 2631.94225 (L*kPa)/(mol), resulting in n = 0.554656603 mol. Thus, we have 0.554656603 moles of gas particles. Next, we determine the contribution from oxygen. The atomic weight of oxygen is 15.999 g/mol, while argon is 39.948 g/mol, and the molar mass of O2 is 31.998 g/mol. We establish the relationships where M is the number of moles of O2, and 0.554656603 - M gives the number of moles of Ar. Setting up the equation: M * 31.998 + (0.554656603 - M) * 39.948 = 19.3, we solve for M resulting in 0.359424148 moles of oxygen out of 0.554656603 total moles. This leads to oxygen providing 0.359424148 / 0.554656603 = 0.648012024 or 64.8012024% of the total pressure of 675.9 mmHg. The partial pressure therefore calculates to 675.9 * 0.648012024 = 437.9913271 mmHg, rounded to 438.0 mmHg</span>

How many molecules of PF5 are found in 39.5 grams of PF5?
Anarel [2989]

Response:

1.9 \times 10^{23} molecules of PF_5 can be found in 39.5 grams of PF_5.

Clarification:

Atomic weights: P= 31, F= 19,

The molar mass equals 1 atomic weight of P + 5 atomic weights of

 F= 31+5 × 19\times = 31+95

=126 g/mole

The number of moles in 39.5 gm of

equals \frac{Mass}{Molar mass}

 = \frac{39.5}{126}moles

 =0.3134 moles

1 mole of any substance encompasses

0.3131 moles comprises 0.3134

= 1.9 \times 10^{23} molecules

Thus, 1.9 \times 10^{23} molecules of PF_5 can be found in 39.5 grams of PF_5.

Determine the percent yield for the reaction
Alekssandra [3086]

Answer:

The percent yield of Br₂ in this reaction amounts to 96.15%

Explanation:

The reaction's balanced stoichiometric equation is:

2 NaBr + 1 Cl₂ → 2 NaCl + 1 Br₂

To calculate the percent yield:

Percent yield = 100% × (Actual yield)/(Theoretical yield)

To determine the theoretical yield:

5.29 g of NaBr reacts with an excess of chlorine; therefore, NaBr is the limiting reagent, controlling the possible yield of products.

We convert 5.29 g of NaBr to moles.

Number of moles = (Mass)/(Molar mass)

Molar Mass of NaBr = 102.894 g/mol

Number of moles = (5.29/102.894) = 0.0514121329 = 0.05141 mole

According to the stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of NaBr yield 1 mole of Br₂

Thus, 0.05141 mole of NaBr will produce (0.05141×1/2) mole of Br₂, which is 0.0257 mole of Br₂

Theoretical yield = Expected mass of Br₂ from the reaction

= (Number of moles) × (Molar mass)

Molar mass of Br₂ = 159.808 g/mol

Theoretical yield of Br₂ = 0.0257 × 159.808 = 4.108 g

Calculating the percent yield:

Percent yield = 100% × (Actual yield)/(Theoretical yield)

Actual yield = 3.95 g

Theoretical yield = 4.108 g

Percent yield = 100% × (3.95/4.108) = 96.15%

Hope this is helpful!!!
