Answer:

Angle between the carbon-sulfur bond and the carbon-nitrogen bond in the thiocyanate ion $SCN^-$ is 180°.

Explanation:

The hybridization of carbon atom is sp hybridized. The shape of the <em>sp </em>hybridized carbon is linear which means that angle between sulfur carbon a bond and carbon nitrogen bond is 180 °.

Where as $sp^3$ hybridized carbon has tetrahedral shape with an angle of 109.5°.

Where as $sp^2$ hybridized carbon has trigonal planar with an angle of 120°.

When an atom gains an electron, the resulting particle is calledA) a proton.B) an anion.C) a cation.D) an isotope.E) none of the

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

B) an anion

Explanation:

During bonding atoms may share electron or give out electron . In the case of electrovalent or ionic bonding, electron(s) is/are transferred from one atom to another . The atom that donate the electron are known as donor atom and the atom that receives the electron are known as receivers.

The atom that donate the electron becomes a cation(positively charged) as it lose it electron(s) while the receiver gains electron to become an anion which is a negatively charge ion.

An example of such interaction is between a sodium atom and a chlorine atom. The Na atom lose it electron to become positively charged(cation) while the chlorine atom gains electron to become negatively charged(anion). Both atom bond together losing and gaining electron to fulfill the octet rule.

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Usually, acceleration means the speed is changing, but not always. When an object moves in a circular path at a constant speed, it is still accelerating, because the direction of its velocity is changing.

Explanation:

It goes with velocity

Additional information

Relative atomic mass(Ar) : A=7, G=16

The empirical formula : A₂G

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

3.5g of element A

4.0g of element G

Required

the empirical formula for this compound

Solution

The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound forming elements.

The empirical formula also shows the simplest mole ratio of the constituent elements of the compound

mol of element A :

$\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{Ar}\\\\mol=\dfrac{3.5}{7}=0.5$

mol of element G :

$\tt mol=\dfrac{4}{16}=0.25$

mol ratio A : G = 0.5 : 0.25 = 2 : 1
