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.

A 0.821 gram sample of pure NH F was treated with 25.0 mL of 1.00 M NaOH
KiRa [2726]
A total of 0.0222 moles of NaOH are necessary to react with NH4F. \nBased on the reaction NH4F + NaOH --> NaF + NH3 + H2O, we start with: \nMass of NH4F = 0.821 g, NaOH concentration = 1 M, volume of NaOH = 25 mL. \nTo find moles: moles of NaOH = (CV)/1000. Thus, moles of NaOH = (1 * 25)/1000 = 0.025 moles of NaOH used. \nThe molar mass of NH4F is 37 g/mol, making moles of NH4F = 0.821 / 37 = 0.0222 moles. \nThis shows that NaOH is in excess, with 0.025 - 0.0222 = 0.0028 moles of NaOH remaining. Hence, 0.0222 moles of NaOH are needed to react with NH4F.

What is the density (in g/L) of a gas with a molar mass of 16.01 g/mol at 1.75 ATM and 337 K?
Anarel [2605]
To solve for density, you can use the formula--> Density= PM/ RT, where P stands for pressure, M for molar mass, R represents the gas constant, and T is temperature. 

P= 1.75 atm
M= 16.01 g/ mol
R= 0.0821 atm·L/ mol·K
T=337 k

Thus, the density calculation becomes: density= (1.75 x 16.01)/ (0.0821 x 337)= 1.01 g/L

At –45oC, 71 g of fluorine gas take up 6843 mL of space. What is the pressure of the gas, in kPa?
KiRa [2726]
The quantity of fluorine in moles is calculated as 71/19 = 3.74
We also know that at standard temperature and pressure (273 K and 101.3 kPa), one mole of gas occupies 22.4 liters
So, the volume for 3.74 moles at S.T.P is: 3.74 x 22.4
This results in a volume of 83.776 L, which is equivalent to 83,776 mL

Next, applying Boyle's law, which states that for a fixed amount of gas,
PV = constant

We set up the equation P x 6843 = 101.3 x 83776
Solving for P gives us 1,240 kPa

Combustion of hydrogen releases 142 j/g of hydrogen reacted. How many kj of energy are released by the combustion of 16.0 oz of
alisha [2718]
The mass of hydrogen is 16.0 oz. To convert 16.0 oz of hydrogen into pounds, we utilize the conversion factor 1 lb = 16 oz. Next, we convert pounds to grams using the factors 1 kg = 2.2 lb and 1 kg = 1000 g. The heat of combustion for hydrogen is 142 J/g, and we will calculate the heat produced by combusting 16.0 oz.

Water's surface tension and heat storage capacity are accounted for by its ______. A) orbitals B) weight C) hydrogen bonds D) ma
lorasvet [2542]
The answer is C: hydrogen bonds. Explanation: The surface tension and the capacity for heat storage in water are due to its hydrogen bonds. Water molecules have a strong attraction to one another through hydrogen bonding. These bonds are continuously forming and breaking within water molecules. The result of this hydrogen bonding is surface tension, which allows water to have a greater capacity for heat retention. Consequently, during the night, the temperature on Earth drops much faster than it does for water, as water gradually releases heat, helping maintain a moderate atmospheric temperature at night.
