Correct answer is B
No explanation has been provided for this answer.
The boiling points of HF, H2O and NH3 increase in the order of
NH3
H2O < HF
HF < NH3 < H2O
NH3 < HF < H2O
Correct answer is D
Ammonia = -33.34°C; Hydrogen fluoride = 19.5°C; Water = 100°C
When element 20Y combines with element 8Z, it forms
A covalent compound , YZ is formed
A covalent compound, ZY is formed
An ionic compound, YZ is formed
An ionic compound, ZY is formed
Correct answer is C
Y = 2,8,8,2 and Z = 2,6.
Y will readily give off its 2 valence electrons and Z will accept the 2 electrons in order to achieve octet configuration. Hence, the compound YZ is formed by ionic bonding.
How many electrons are present in 94Be2+?
2
4
5
6
Correct answer is A
Neutral Be has 4 electrons but Be2+ means it has lost two electrons from possible four and became a positive ion.
∴ the number of electrons left will be equal to two.
