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.

Predict the molecular geometry about S in the molecule SO2

Inga [223]

Hey there!:

SO2 a Bent molecular shape. The lone pair of electrons is at the top of the SO2 molecule. The SO2 bond angle will be 120 degrees since it has a Bent molecular geometry.

Hope that helps!

Which combination of reagents used in the indicated order with benzene will give m-nitropropylbenzene? a. 1) CH3CH2CH2Cl/AlCl3,

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

1) HNO3/H2SO4, 2) CH3CH2CH2Cl/AlCl3

Explanation:

Benzene is a stable aromatic compound hence it undergoes substitution rather than addition reaction.

When benzene undergoes substitution reaction, the substituent introduced into the ring determines the position of the incoming electrophile.

If I want to synthesize m-nitropropylbenzene, I will first carry out the nitration of benzene using HNO3/H2SO4 since the -nitro group is a meta director. This is now followed by Friedel Craft's alkykation using CH3CH2CH2Cl/AlCl3.
