Give the hybridization for the c in hcch. group of answer choices

Tamiku [17]1 year ago

The hybridization for C in acetylene, HCCH, or C₂H₂ is 'sp'.

Discussion:

There are three different forms of hybridization -

  1. sp- The first occurs when two carbon atoms are triple linked.
  2. sp₂- When two carbon atoms are double-bonded to one another, this is known as sp₂.
  3. sp₃- When a single bond joins two carbon atoms, this is known as sp₃.

In the case of acetylene(HCCH or C₂H₂):

  • The carbon atom requires additional electrons to establish four bonds with hydrogen and other carbon atoms in the synthesis of C₂H₂. One 2s₂ pair is consequently transferred to the vacant 2pz orbital. Each carbon has two sp hybrid orbitals after the 2s orbital in each atom combines with one of the 2p orbitals.
  • As a result of the atoms' symmetrical alignment in a single plane, C₂H₂ possesses a linear molecular structure. Due to their lower electronegative nature than Hydrogen atoms, all Carbon atoms are situated near the center of the Lewis structure of C₂H₂.

                                              H-C≡C-H

Therefore, it is concluded from the above discussion that the hybridization type of acetylene is 'sp'.

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Oxygen

Explanation:

 · Air decolorization makes use of chromophores’ instability on oxygen to decolorize the oil by air-oxidizing pigments. For example, the carotenoid and chlorophyll in the oil are very unstable because of their structure, which is easy to be discolored under the action of oxygen. However, air decolorization leads to thermal oxidation of the oil, too.

Please help me with this chem question, I’ll mark you brainiest if it’s right. There’s multiple answers for this one.
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Option A. KCl (aq)

Option D. Mg(OH)₂(s

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

MgCl₂(aq) + KOH(aq) —>

In solution, MgCl₂(aq) and KOH(aq) will dissociate as follow:

MgCl₂(aq) —> Mg²⁺(aq) + 2Cl¯(aq)

KOH(aq) —> K⁺(aq) + OH¯(aq)

MgCl₂(aq) + KOH(aq) —>

Mg²⁺(aq) + 2Cl¯(aq) + 2K⁺(aq) + OH¯(aq) —> 2K⁺(aq) + 2Cl¯(aq) + Mg(OH)₂ (s)

MgCl₂(aq) + KOH(aq) —> 2KCl (aq) + Mg(OH)₂(s)

Thus, the products of the above reaction are: KCl(aq) and Mg(OH)₂(s)

Thus, option A and D gives the correct answer to the question.

Tell me why in Louisiana it always gotta freaking have a hurricane
Gala2k [10]
Why do so many storms target the state? The easterly winds typically blowing across Jacksonville in the summer flow out of the Azores/Bermuda high-pressure system which also steers many hurricanes into the Gulf. In June and October, storms are more likely to move up the Gulf from the south and southwest.
