When pcl5 solidifies it forms pcl4 cations and pcl6–anions. according to valence bond theory, hybrid orbitals that  are used by phosphorus in the pcl4 cations are one orbital of s and three orbital of p as it is sp³hydridised.

<h3>What is sp³ hybridization?</h3>

Hybridization is a process or system which specifies the shape and geometry of any element or molecule with bond angles too.

The pcl4 cation is sp³ hybridized because of the phosphorus behave as a central atom here and the 4 chloride molecules are attached with the p- orbitals to the phosphorus molecule.

Therefore, pcl4 cation  is sp³ hybridized.

A binding protein binds to a ligand l with a kd of 400 nm what is the concentration of ligand when y is 0.25
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

The answer is 7600 nm.

Explanation:

As, Y = 0.25 = [ L ÷ (400 + (L)]

0.95 x 400 + 0.25 [ L] = [ L ]

380.25  = [ L ] - 0.95 [ L ]

              = 0.05 [L]

[L] = 380 ÷ 0.05 = 7600nm

How many moles of CF4 can be produced when 8.95 mol C reacts with 7.88 mol F2?
Molodets [167]

The remaining moles of C is 5.01 moles while the remaining moles of F₂ is 0.

<h3>Reaction between Carbon and Fluorine </h3>

The reaction between carbon and Fluorine is given as;

C + 2F₂  -------> CF₄

1  :    2                1

from the reaction above,

2 moles of F₂ requires 1 mole of C

7.88 mole of  F₂ will require:    7.88/2 = 3.94 moles of C and 3.94 moles of CF₄.

The remaining moles of C = 8.95 - 3.94 = 5.01 moles while the remaining moles of F₂ is 0.
