The total number of valence electrons in a molecule of sof2 is ________.

1 answer:

7 0

Answer:
There are 26 valence electrons in SOF₂.

Explanation:
Valence electrons are calculated by adding the valence electrons present in valence shell of each element present in SOF₂. So,

# of Valence e⁻s in S = 6

# of Valence e⁻s in O = 6

# of Valence e⁻s in F = 7

# of Valence e⁻s in F = 7

Now, add all valence electrons,

= 6 + 6 + 7 + 7

= 26 Valence Electrons

Calculate the equilibrium constant K for the following reaction: H2(g) +

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

192.9

Explanation:

From the question,

Ke = [HCL]²/[H₂][CL₂].......................... Equation 1

Where Ke = Equilibrium constant.

Given: [HCL] = 0.0625 M, [H₂] = 0.0045 M, [CL₂] = 0.0045 M

Substitute these values into equation 1

Ke = (0.0625)²/(0.0045)(0.0045)

ke = (3.90625×10⁻³)/(2.025×10⁻⁵)

ke = 1.929×10²

ke = 192.9

Hence the equilibrium constant of the system = 192.9

Use the reaction 1₂(s) = 12(g), AH = 62.4 kJ/mol, AS = 0.145 kJ/(mol-K), for

Sati [7]

The Reaction is spontaneous when temperature is 430 K. Hence, Option (C) is correct.

<h3></h3><h3>What is Spontaneous reaction ?</h3>

Reactions are favorable when they result in a decrease in enthalpy and an increase in entropy of the system.

When both of these conditions are met, the reaction occurs naturally.

Spontaneous reaction is a reaction that favors the formation of products at the conditions under which the reaction is occurring.

According to Gibb's equation:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

ΔG = Gibbs free energy

ΔH = enthalpy change = +62.4 kJ/mol

ΔS = entropy change = +0.145 kJ/molK

T = temperature in Kelvin

ΔG = +ve, reaction is non spontaneous
ΔG = -ve, reaction is spontaneous
ΔG = 0, reaction is in equilibrium

ΔH - TΔS = 0 for reaction to be spontaneous

T = ΔH / ΔS

Here,

T = 500K

Thus the Reaction is spontaneous when temperature is 500 K.

Select the correct value for the indicated bond angle in each of the following compounds: O-S-O angle of SO2 F-B-F angle of BF3

Stels [109]

Answer:

(A) O-S-O bond angle of SO₂ molecule = 119°

(B) F-B-F bond angle of BF₃ molecule = 120°

(D) O-C-O bond angle of CO₂ molecule = 180°

(E) F-P-F bond angle of PF₃ molecule = 96.3°

(F) H-C-H bond angle of CH₄ molecule = 109.5°

Explanation:

Bond angle refers to the angle between two adjacent chemical bonds in a molecule. The bond angle is different for different molecular geometry.

The Valence shell electron pair repulsion theory predicts the molecular geometry and shape of the given molecule by the number of lone pairs on central atom and number of atoms bonded to central atom.

(A) SO₂ molecule

The number of atoms bonded to S = 2

Number of lone pairs on S = 1

Therefore, the shape of SO₂ molecule is bent and the O-S-O bond angle is 119°.

(B) BF₃ molecule

The number of atoms bonded to B = 3

Number of lone pairs on B = 0

Therefore, the shape of BF₃ molecule is trigonal planar and the F-B-F bond angle is 120°.

(C) SCl₂ molecule

The number of atoms bonded to S = 2

Number of lone pairs on S = 2

Therefore, the shape of SCl₂ molecule is bent and the Cl-S-Cl bond angle is 103°.

(D) CO₂ molecule

The number of atoms bonded to C = 2

Number of lone pairs on C = 0

Therefore, the shape of CO₂ molecule is linear and the O-C-O bond angle is 180°.

(E) PF₃ molecule

The number of atoms bonded to P = 3

Number of lone pairs on P = 1

Therefore, the shape of PF₃ molecule is trigonal pyramidal and the F-P-F bond angle is 96.3°.

(F) CH₄ molecule

The number of atoms bonded to C = 4

Number of lone pairs on C = 0

Therefore, the shape of CH₄ molecule is tetrahedral and the H-C-H bond angle is 109.5°.

What is the percent composition of carbon in heptane c7h16

Gnom [1K]

Answer: the percent composition of carbon in heptane is 83.9%

Explanation:

1) Atomic masses of the atoms:

C: 12.01 g/mol

H: 1.008 g/mol

2) Molar mass of heptane:

C₇H₁₆: 7 × 12.01 g/mol + 16×1.008 g/mol = 100.2 g/mol

3) Mass of carbon in one mole of heptane:

C₇: 7 × 12.01 g/mol = 84.07 g/mol

3) Percent composition of carbon:

% = (mass in grams of C) / (mass in grams of C₇H₁₆) × 100 =

= (84.07 g/ 100.2 g) × 100 = 83.9% ← answer
