The central oxygen atom is a state of sp3 hybridization having only one available lone pair.

<h3>What is hybridization?</h3>

The term hybridization refers to the mixing of two or more atomic orbitals to yield hybrid orbitals that are suitable for bonding.

Looking at the ion H3O^+, we can see that the central oxygen atom is a state of sp3 hybridization having only one available lone pair. The image of the ion is shown here.

How do the strength and the cohesion of clay-rich regolith or soil change with the addition of water?

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

Water lowers the strength and cohesion of clay-rich regolith or soil.

Explanation:

Water can seep into the soil or clay-rich regolith and replace the air in the pore space of the soil or regolith. Water will completely surrounds all the grains of the clay-rich regolith and breaks the bonds in between the grains, that is eliminating all grain to grain contact of the regolith. When the regolith becomes saturated with water, the angle of repose is reduced to very small values and the regolith tends to loose its form.

Boron has an atomic mass of 10.811. What does this mean?

icang [17]

Answer:

Knowing that boron has an atomic mass of 10,811 means that all boron isotopes on average weigh 10,811 u.

Explanation:

The atomic mass of an atom is the mass of the atom measured in u (unified atomic mass unit), although we can also express it as Da (Dalton's unit)

Atomic mass refers to the average mass that all isotopes of that element have.

When we speak of isotopes we are referring to the element itself but with a different number of neutrons, which makes it modify its mass number.
