The bond angles in the nitrite ion , nitrogen dioxide and the Nitronium ion are 115°,134°,180° respectively .

In the nitrite ion , N-atom has sp2 hybridization so it has trigonal planner  geometry and bent shaped and has bond angle of 115° because of there is a lone pair on nitrogen atom due to which there is a repulsion occurs between the bond pair and lone pair . so the bond angle slightly deviate from 120° (general bond angle in case of sp2 hybridization ) and form a angle of 115° .

according to the Lewis structure nitrogen of nitrite ion contains 6 valance electron of oxygen and 5 valence electron of nitrogen . from which one oxygen and nitrogen bonded by double bond by sharing- pairing 4 electrons and other oxygen by single bond .

In case of Nitronium ion , N-atom has sp-hybridization , so it has linear geometry and the bond angle is 180° . also there is a  positive charge on the nitrogen atom . which cause the valence electron of nitrogen becomes 4 . and the valance electron of oxygen is 6 . so according to Lewis structure ,the two oxygen bonded to the nitrogen atom by double bond . hence the shape will be linear and bond angle will be 180° .

In case of nitrogen dioxide , it involves the sp2 hybridization . according to Lewis dot structure the nitrogen dioxide have one 2 sigma and 1 lone pair electron . it has bent geometry .due to the lone pair there is a greater repulsion occurs due to  which bond angle becomes 134° .

<h3>What is Lewis  structure ?</h3>

Lewis structure is also known as Lewis dot structure , Lewis dot diagram , electron dot structure . it shows the bonding between atoms of a molecule and the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule .

<h3>Hybridization :</h3>

it is the intermixing of atomic orbitals to make new hybrid orbital .

When the temperature of a sample of neon gas increases, what else increases? Distance between the atoms Kinetic energy of the at
Allushta [10]

Answer: Kinetic Energy of the atoms also increases.

Explanation: We are given that the temperature of the gas increases.

Relation between kinetic energy and temperature follows:

K.E._({avg})=\frac{3RT}{2N_A}

where, K = Average Kinetic energy

R = Gas constant

T = Temperature

N_A = Avogadro's number

As seen from the relation above, the Kinetic energy of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature, hence as the temperature increases, kinetic energy of the atom also increases.

Suppose a compound is involved in three different reactions denoted R1, R2, and R3. Tripling the concentration of this reactant
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The order of reaction is as follows, R1 = 1; R2 = 2; R3 = 0

Explanation:

The rate of a chemical reaction is the number of moles of reactants consumed per unit time or the number of moles of products formed per unit. the rate of a chemical reaction is affected by the concentration of reactants

The relationship between the rate of a chemical reaction and the concentration of its reactants is given by the rate law or equation.

Generally, the rate equation is given as;

Rate = k[A]ᵃ[B]ᵇ..., where k = rate constant which is independent of concentration of the reactants, [A] = concentration of reactant A, a = order of reaction A, [B] = concentration of reaction B, b = order of reaction B.

For the given reactions R1, R2 and R3

For R1; rate = 3, Concentration = 3[A]

3 = k[A]3ˣ

3¹ = k[A]3ˣ

Since rate is proportional to concentration, therefore, the order of reaction, x = 1

For R2; rate = 9, Concentration = 3[A]

9 = k[A]3ˣ

3² = k[A]3ˣ

Since rate is proportional to concentration, therefore, the order of reaction, x = 2

For R1; rate = 1, Concentration = 3[A]

1 = k[A]3ˣ

3⁰ = k[A]3ˣ

Since rate is proportional to concentration, therefore, the order of reaction, x = 0

Therefore, the order of reaction is as follows, R1 = 1; R2 = 2; R3 = 0
