Answer : The structure of
will be square-planar.
Explanation :
In the given molecule
, 'Xe' is the central atom and 'H' is the terminal atom.
Xenon has 8 valence electrons and hydrogen has 1 valence electron. Therefore, the total number of valence electrons are 8 + 4(1) = 12 electrons.
The number of electrons used in Xe-H bonding = 8 electrons
The remaining electrons which are used as lone pair on central atom (Xe) = 12 - 8 = 4 electrons
There are 4 bonding pairs and 2 lone pairs of electrons, they will be arranged in the octahedral arrangement around the central atom with 2 lone pairs of electrons on central atom. The lone pairs are arranged linearly across the central atom. The resulting structure will be square-planar.
The structure of
is shown below.
Answer:
Sodium Carbonate
Explanation:
Washing Soda�Sodium Carbonate (Na2CO3) (Na = Sodium, water softening)
Sodium softens water by binding with Calcium and Magnesium forming solid, which can be rinsed off the fabric. �However, if not rinsed thoroughly, the minerals can redeposit onto the fabric and cause problems. �
True.
For example: Sodium oxide and Nitric acid; both compounds contain oxygen.
Answer:
Silver Acetate would be the Limiting Reagent.
Explanation:
The balance chemical equation for the given double displacement reaction is as;
HCl + AgC₂H₃O₂ → AgCl + HC₂H₃O₂
Step 1: <u>Calculate Moles of Starting Materials:</u>
Moles of HCl:
Moles = Mass / M.Mass
Moles = 72.9 g / 36.46
Moles = 1.99 moles
Moles of AgC₂H₃O₂:
Moles = 150 g / 166.91 g/mol
Moles = 0.898 moles
Step 2: <u>Find out Limiting reagent as:</u>
According to balance chemical equation.
1 mole of HCl reacts with = 1 mole of AgC₂H₃O₂
So,
1.99 moles of HCl will react with = X moles of AgC₂H₃O₂
Solving for X,
X = 1.99 mol × 1 mol / 1 mol
X = 1.99 mol of AgC₂H₃O₂
Hence, to completely consume 1.99 moles of Hydrochloric acid we will require 1.99 moles of Silver Acetate, But, we are provided with only 0.898 moles of Silver Acetate. This means Silver Acetate will consume first in the reaction therefore, it is the LIMITING REAGENT.
