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

Chemistry

Tamiku [17]2 years ago
5 0

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'.

Number of atoms in 5.40gB
Stolb23 [73]
First, take the molar mass of B (10.81g) and divide the value you've been given by the molar mass to get moles (5.4 / 10.81). So you have .5 moles of B and then you need to convert that to atoms. To do that you must use the constant 6.022X10^23 atoms per mole. Take your moles and multiply it by that constant. Your final answer should be (3.01X10^23) atoms.

Hope this helps!

Which one of the following statements is TRUE? Which one of the following statements is TRUE? A buffer is an aqueous solution co
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The correct answer is "A buffer resists pH change by neutralizing added acids and bases".

Explanation:

In chemistry, a buffer is defined as an aquoeous solution that resist pH changes. Buffers are comprised of a weak acid (HA) and its conjugate base (A−) in an equilibrium relation, which results in the buffer neutralizing added acids and bases. Buffers play a crucial role in living beings since they provide a relative stable environment for the cells in what is known as homeostasis.
