Students dealing with ionic bonds comprehend better how to convey what the model should showcase.

Explanation:

• Upon dissolving ionic compounds in water, the compounds separate into their constituent ions via a process called dissociation.
• The ions become attracted to water molecules, which carry a polar charge.
• If the pull between the ions and the water molecules is strong enough to disband the ionic bonds, the compound dissolves.
• The ions disperse in the solution, each surrounded by water molecules to inhibit reattachment.
• The ionic solution forms an electrolyte, allowing it to conduct electricity.
• In contrast, while covalent compounds do dissolve in water, they separate into molecules, not individual atoms.
• Water acts as a polar solvent, yet covalent compounds are generally nonpolar.
• This implies that covalent compounds often do not dissolve in water and instead form a distinct layer on top of the water.

Answer: 25,200.

Explanation:

1) Starting with: 4.659 × 10⁴ - 2.14 × 10⁴

2) Significant figures need to be considered.

Because the powers are equal (10⁴), the decimal values can be subtracted directly. However, it is essential to first check significant figures and the count of decimal places.

3) The figure 4.659 × 10⁴ has four significant digits (4, 6, 5, and 9), whereas 2.14 × 10⁴ contains three significant digits (2, 1, and 4).

4) When adding or subtracting values with a different number of decimal places, the answer must reflect the same number of decimal places as the number with the least amount of decimal precision.

5) Prior to performing subtraction, it is necessary to round the numbers to the least decimal places. Given that 2.14 has two decimal places and 4.659 has three, round 4.659 to 4.66.

6) Now perform the subtraction 4.66 - 2.14 = 2.52

7) Then multiply by the power of 10: 2.52 × 10⁴ = 25,200. This is the final answer.

Answer:

The mass of copper generated is 19.07g

Explanation:

Let's write out the chemical equation;

3CuCl2 + 2Al → 2AlCl3 + 3Cu

3:   2:   2: 3

After confirming that the reaction is balanced, we can continue.

The problem asks for the mass of Cu produced from 5.4g of Al reacting.

Based on the equation, what is the relation between Al and Cu?

2 moles of Al would yield 3 moles of Cu

Expressing this in mass terms, we find;

mass = number of moles * molar mass

Mass of Aluminium = 2 * 26.98 = 53.98 g

Mass of Copper = 3 * 63.546 = 190.638g

This indicates that;

53.98 g of Al would react to create 190.638g of Cu

So, how much Cu would result from 5.4 g of Al?

This leads us to;

53.98 = 190.638

5.4 = x

By cross multiplication, we determine;

x = (190.638 * 5.4) / 53.98

x = 19.07 g

The mass of copper created is 19.07g
