What is the word equation to show the reaction of chlorine and hydrogen?
The elements chlorine and hydrogen react with each another to form the compound hydrogen chloride.
Why do HCl and HNO3 show acidic characters in aqueos solutions while solutions of compounds like alcohol and glucose do not show acidic character?
Chlorine, nitrogen, and oxygen are highly electronegative and thus electron withdrawing, which makes it easy for a hydrogen atom to break off in HNO3 or HCl. Glucose, by contrast, contains carbon which is electron releasing, this makes it harder for a hydrogen ion to break off.
What is the valency of all 2A elements?
All 2A elements show the valency of two.
What 1980's tv show had a scary tree?
Six: NH4Cl contains 4 hydrogen, 1 nitrogen an 1 chlorine atom.
What is the chemical formula for hydrogen oxide and show your working?
Hydrogen has a valencey of 1 oxygen has a valencey of 2 H1O2 cross nums over H20 another eg Chlorine has valencey of 2 hydrogen 1 CL2H1 CLH2(hydrogen chloride or hydrochloric acid)
What does the presence of a polar covalent bond show about the electronegative of its two atoms?
The meaning is a significant difference of electronegativity.
What does the presence of a polar covalent bond show about the electronegative ties of its two atoms?
The meaning is a significant difference of electronegativity.
Why does periodic table show phosphate having valency of 5 yet it is really valency 3?
You have mistaken Phosphate for Phosphorus. Phosphorus is in Group 5 of the periodic table. Group 5 elements generally have a valency of 3, but it is also possible for them to have a valency of 5... Below are two examples of compounds, one using Phosphorus with valency 5 (V) and one using Phosphorus valency 3 (III) : Phosphate (phosphorus with maximum oxygen) This is formed by Phosphorus (V) + 4 Oxygen. Oxygen has valency -2, thus... 5 + 4 x -2 = 5 - 8 = -3 So we can see that Phosphate has a charge of -3 (or in other words a valency of 3) Phosphite (phosphorus with one less than maximum oxygen) This is formed by Phosphorus (III) + 3 Oxygen, and so... 3 + 3 x -2 = 3 - 6 = -3 So we can see that Phosphite also has a valency of 3 Hope this helps!
What electron behavior in compounds are found in hydrogen?
Hydrogen has the electron configuration of 1s1 meaning that Hydrogen has only one electron. Because of this, Hydrogen is a moderately reactive substance and behaves atypically both in intermolecular and atomic bonding. The most notable behaviour of Hydrogen is Hydrogen bonding. When hydrogen is bonded to a highly electronegative element, such as Fluorine in HF, the electron density is pulled away from the weak hydrogen atom, leaving the hydrogen almost completely deprived of electrons and a δ+ charge. This induces nearby atoms in other molecules to share their lone pair electrons with the hydrogen, effectively producing a bond similar to a covalent bond, however between molecules. Hydrogen bonding is the strongest intermolecular force and is present in compounds such as water, where the Hδ+ Effectively 'bonds' with the lone pairs of the oxygen atoms in neighbouring molecules, which is why water and ice show unusual properties.
How are the three isotopes of hydrogen similar how are they different?
Isotopes of hydrogen are similar in chemical properties; they react with chlorine to give hydrogen chloride. However, the physical properties show a difference; deutirium molecule has a higher boiling point than that of protium.
Is chloride an element?
It is the form of the element chlorine with a suffix to show that it is in a ionic compound.
What does a non polar covalent bond show about the electronegative of its two atoms?
The electronegativities of it's two atoms are similar.
