Do CO2 and h2o have the same geometry
Svetach [21]
No, they do not. Carbon dioxide has a linear geometry because the lone pair and bond pair repulsion cancels out; however, water has a bent structure because only the oxygen atom possesses a lone pair which brings the bonding electron pairs closer.

The density of water at 4 degrees Celsius is 1.000 g/mg is it chemical or physical property?
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Physical Property

Explanation:

Density, mass, volume, color, melting and boiling points, etc. are all physical properties. No matter what changes, the chemical makeup stays the same.

Flamability, acidity, toxicity, etc. are chemical properties, because they chemically change the makeup of the object/thing.

Metals give up electrons to become cation or anion
galina1969 [7]
Metals usually become cations since electrons are negatively charged and when they are lost there are more protons than electrons making a positive net charge in the atom.  (cations are positively charged ions while anions are negatively charged ions)

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.
