What is the mass (in grams) of 9.42 × 1024 molecules of methanol (CH3OH)?
2 answers:
Answer: 500 grams
Explanation:
According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number of particles.
To calculate the moles, we use the equation:
1 mole of weighs = 32.04 g/mol
Thus 15.6 moles of weigh=
Thus the mass of molecules of methanol is 500 grams

This problem is asking for an explanation of what we need to know about double and triple bonds to successfully predict molecular geometries in molecules. At the end, one comes to the conclusion that double and triple bonds contribute to the degree in which an atom is bonded and they also determine the lone pairs, which, at the same time, define the molecular geometry.
<h3>Molecular geometry:</h3>In chemistry, molecules are not necessarily flat arrangements of atoms, yet they have specific bond angles, orientations and shapes, which define the molecular geometry. In such a way, we can use the VSEPR theory in order to know the molecular geometry of a molecule; however, we first need its Lewis structure or at least the number and type of bonds to do so.
Consider water and carbon dioxide; the former has two hydrogen to oxygen bonds (O-H) and 2 lone pairs because O has six valence electrons but just 2 are bonded to complete the octet, so 4 unpaired electrons lead to two lone pairs. On the other hand, the latter has two double bonds (C=O) and 0 lone pairs because carbon has four valence electrons and they are all bonded to complete the octet.
In such a way, one can see how the double bond affected the bonding in CO2 in contrast to the H2O; situation that also applies to triple bonds, because CO2 has a linear molecular geometry whereas water has a bent one (see attached picture)
Hence, one comes to the conclusion that double and triple bonds contribute to the degree in which an atom is bonded and they also determine the lone pairs, which, at the same time, define the molecular geometry.

Hello!
When the final velocity is less than the initial velocity, this is deceleration
<h2>Why?</h2>Acceleration is defined as the physical magnitude that measures the change in velocity with time. The units to express acceleration are speed over time.
The equation for acceleration is:
Where: a=acceleration, v=final velocity, vo=initial velocity, t=final time, to=initial time.
If the final velocity is less than the initial velocity, then the acceleration is negative, and that is called deceleration. An example of this is when a car brakes.
Have a nice day!
