What does the formula for water, H2O, tell you about what the molecule is made of ?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

To find out what water is made of, it helps to look at its chemical formula, which is H2O. This basically tells us that the water molecule is composed of two elements: hydrogen and oxygen or, more precisely, two hydrogen atoms (H2) and one oxygen atom (O). Hydrogen and oxygen are gases at room temperature.

What hybridization is required for central atoms that have a tetrahedral arrangement of electron pairs? A trigo- nal planar arra
Reika [66]

Answer:

sp³;

sp²;

sp;

None;

One;

Two;

They're used to pi bonds.

Explanation:

The central atom in a molecule is generally the one that can make a greater number of bonds. The covalent bonds are made by the sharing of electrons, and, for that, the electron must be alone in the orbital.

To explain this, the hybridization theory was created, which states that, the orbitals are joined to form hybrids ones, and so, by the Hund's law, the electrons are alone in them.

The sigma bonds are done in the hybrids orbitals, and at the pure orbitals, the pi bonds are done. The lone pair of electrons are at a pure orbital. So, to know the hybridization of the central atom, we must know how many sigma bonds it does, and it will be the number of hybrids orbitals (each orbital may have two electrons, thus each bond are done in one orbital).

Double bonds and triple bonds have always only one sigma bond, so the number of sigma bonds is equal to the number of bonds, it's not necessary to know if they are simple, double or triple.

When the arrangement is tetrahedral, the central atom does 4 bonds, so it has 4 sigma bonds, and 4 hybrids orbitals (one of s and three for p), does its hybridization is sp³. Because exists only 3 p orbitals, there are no unhybridized p orbitals in this case.

When the arrangement is trigonal, the central atom does 3 bonds, so it has 3 hybrids orbitals (one of s and two of p), thus the hybridization is sp². So there are one unhybridized p orbitals.

When the arrangement is linear, the central atom does 2 bonds, so it has 2 hybrids orbitals (one of s and one of p), thus the hybridization is sp. So, there are two unhybridized p atoms.

As stated before, the unhybridized p orbitals are used to pi bonds.

Based on the information given about capsules, which of the following types of molecules would you suspect comprises an S. pneum
Sergio039 [100]

"Polysaccharide carbohydrate" comprises an S. pneumoniae capsule.

<u>Option:</u> C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The lengthy sequences of carbohydrate molecules, primarily polymeric carbohydrates constructed of units of monosaccharides linked together through glycosidic connections, understood as Polysaccharides. This carbohydrate can respond to water by catalyzing amylase enzymes, which generate component sugars.

A major human pathogen is Streptococcus pneumoniae or pneumococcus. The virulence is primarily due to its polysaccharide envelope, which protects it from the recipient immune response, and this has led to comprehensive study of the shell.
