What activity best demonstrates the use of creativity of j.j. thomson's work
seropon [69]
The plum pudding model of the atom by the scientist Sir Joseph John Thompson or J.J. Thompson. It was theorized after the discovery that electrons are present in the atom. In this model, the atom is composed mainly of electrons. It was describe as plum pudding because the electrons are dispersed within the atom. John Dalton discovered the atom. Ernest Rutherford discovered the half – life of an atom and Neils Bohr explain the quantum mechanics. So the answer is J.J. Thompson.

Of the following, only ________ has sp2 hybridization of the central atom. Of the following, only ________ has sp2 hybridization
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

BF3

Explanation:

Hybridization can be defined as the mixing of two or more atomic pure orbitals. ( s, p ,  and d) to produce two or more hybrid atomic orbitals that are similar and identical in shape and energy e.g sp,sp²,sp³ ,sp³d, sp³d². Usually , the central atom of a covalent molecules or ion undergoes hybridization.

in BF3; Boron is the central atom. Here, A 2s  electron is excited from the ground state of boron ( 1s²2s²2p¹) to one empty orbitals of 2p.

The 2s orbital is then mixed with two orbitals of 2p to form three sp² hybrid orbitals tat are trigonally arranged in the plane in order to minimize repulsion . Each of the three hybrid orbitals overlaps with p-orbital of fluorine atom to form three bonds of equal strength and with bond angles of 120⁰.

The above shows an illustrative example of how electrons  move from the ground state to the excited state.
