Lead can be obtained by heating its oxide with carbon. The balanced equation for the reaction is 2PbO + C → 2Pb + CO2 Calculate the atom economy for the production of lead in this reaction. (relative atomic masses: C = 12, O = 16, Pb = 207 relative formula masses: PbO = 223, CO2 = 44) Give your answer to two significant figures.

What happens when an atom of sulfur combines with two atoms of chlorine to produce sci2? a. each chlorine atom shares a pair of electrons with the sulfur atom. b. an electron is transferred from each chlorine atom to the sulfur atom. c. an electron is transferred from the sulfur atom to each chlorine atom. d. each chlorine atom shares all its valence electrons with the sulfur atom.

Why do the strengths of london (dispersion) forces generally increase with increasing molecular size? choose one: a. heavier atoms have stronger attractions for each other than lighter atoms. b. dispersion forces are all equal in magnitude; there is no size dependence. c. dispersion forces arise from the attraction between the nuclei of atoms, and larger molecules have larger nuclei. d. dispersion forces arise from dipoles caused by the electron distribution being distorted. larger molecules have more electrons and, therefore, more distortions and a bigger force. e. dispersion forces depend on distance. larger molecules are farther apart and so the forces are smaller.
