A melting point of a substance is a point at which the sample or substance start converting in liquid. For most substances, melting and freezing points are approximately equal. For example, the melting point and freezing point of mercury is 234.32 kelvins (−38.83 °C or −37.89 °F). Hope this helped!! :)
4-ethyl-3-methyl 1 hexane
Inertia is the tendency of an object to remain at rest or remain in motion. Inertia is related to an object's mass.
Answer: 2 lone pairs, square planar
Explanation:
Using the VSEPR ( Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion)Theory
To calculate the number of lone pairs electron can be done using the formula;
Number of electrons = ½ (V+N-C+A)
V mean valency of the central atom
N means number of monovalent bonding atoms
C means charge on cation
A means charges on anion
Therefore, to calculate the number of lone pair electron C=A=0;
Number of electrons = ½ (8+4) = 12/2 = 6
Number of bonding pair = 4
Number of lone pairs of electron = 6-4 = 2
The hybridrization of the compound is sp3d2 because the number of electrons around the central atom is 6.
The geometry of the compound is square planar and this is because of the repulsion between the bonding pair of electrons and lone pair of electrons which causes the lone pair of electrons to lie in a perpendicular plane in order to acquire stability.
<u>Answer:</u>
The correct answer option is C. 2.
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given the number '0.0020' and we are to indicate the number of significant figures in the given measured number.
According to the rules of significant figures, numbers that are non-zero, zeros between any two significant numbers and the ending zeros in the decimal position are categorized as significant figures.
Since there is one non-zero number and one ending zero in the decimal position, therefore 0.0020 has 2 significant figures.
