HELP ASAP Sulfur dioxide (SO2) gets into the environment from burning of coal and oil. This pollutant is one of the major causes of acid rain, which is associated with the lower pH of soils, lakes, and streams and accelerated corrosion of buildings and monuments. Sulfur dioxide is also a major cause of fine particulate pollution, which is a significant health concern as well as a pollutant that reduces visibility. Given that the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.5 and that of sulfur is 2.5 and the molecule has bent geometry, which of the following best describes the chemical bonding in sulfur dioxide?

A. ionic: transfer of electrons from sulfur to oxygen

B. nonpolar covalent: equal sharing of electrons between sulfur and oxygen

C. polar covalent: electrons shared between sulfur and oxygen but attracted more to the sulfur

D. polar covalent: electrons shared between sulfur and oxygen but attracted more to the oxygen

Does anyone know a lot about how to: - calculate mass of magnesium metal - calculate the actual yield of magnesium oxide - calculate the theoretical yield of mgo - calculate the percent yield of mgo - determine the percent yield of mgo - determine the average percent yield of mgo i had to do an online lab and its asking these questions but i have no idea where to start or how to be able to find these things. i can post the chart of the data from the lab or if you can tell me exactly how i can find each.

1. suppose a reaction mixture, when diluted with water, afforded 300 ml of an aqueous solution of 30 g of the reaction product malononitrile [ch2(cn)2], which is to be isolated by extraction with ether. the solubility of malononitrile in ether at room temperature is 20.0 g/100 ml, and in water is 13.3 g/100 ml. what weight of malononitrile would be recovered by extraction with (a) three 100-ml portions of ether and (b) one 300-ml portion of ether? suggestion: for each extraction, let x equal the weight extracted into the ether layer. in part (a), the concentration in the ether layer is x/100 and in the water layer is (30 x)/300; the ratio of these quantities is equal to k 20/13.3.
