In methane the central C atom is bonded to 4 H atoms forming 4 covalent bonds and adopts a tetrahedral geometry.

The valence electron configuration of C = 2s²2p²

H = 1s¹

In methane, one electron from the 2s orbital of C gets promoted to the 2p orbital creating 4 unpaired electrons. This mixing of the 2s-2p creates 4 sp3 hybrid orbitals each of which then bonds to the 1s orbital of H. Thus, in CH3, the C atom is sp3 hybridized.

This pattern of hybridization is also exhibited by CF2Cl2 in which the central C atom is spe3 hybridized and forms 4 covalent bonds: 2 C-F and 2 C-Cl

Ans: D) CF2Cl2

10. Translate each of the following chemical equations into a sentence.
Fofino [41]

Answer:

a) 2ZnS(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2ZnO(s)+2SO_2(g)

2 moles of Zinc sulphide in solid form reacts with 3 moles of Oxygen in gaseous form to give 2 moles of Zinc oxide in solid form and 2 moles of sulphur dioxide in gaseous form.

b)  CaH_2(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow Ca(OH)_2 aq)+2H_2(g)

1 mole of calcium hydride in solid form reacts with 2 moles of liquid water to give 1 mole of calcium hydroxide dissolved in water and 2 moles of hydrogen in gaseous form.

The chemical reactions are written by writing the chemical formula of the reactants on left side of the arrow followed by chemical formula of the products. The number of atoms of each element must be balanced to follow the law of conservation of mass.

how many moles of sodium are needed to react with sulfuric acid to produce 3.75 moles of sodium sulfate according to the followi
anastassius [24]
Hello!
<span>
You'll need to react 7,5 moles of Sodium with sulfuric acid to produce 3.75 moles of sodium sulfate
</span>
First of all, you need to balance the reaction. The balanced reaction is shown below (ensuring that the Law of Conservation of Mass is met on both sides):

2Na + H₂SO₄ → Na₂SO₄ + H₂

Now, all that you have to do is to use molar equivalences in this reaction applying the coefficients to calculate the moles of Sodium that you'll need:

molesNa=3,75moles Na_{2} SO_4* \frac{2 moles Na}{1 mol Na_{2} SO_4} =7,5 moles Na 

Have a nice day!

Draw the Lewis dot structure for RbIO2. Include all hydrogen atoms and nonbonding electrons. Show the formal charges of all atom
Rzqust [24]

Answer : The Lewis-dot structure of RbIO_2  is shown below.

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, RbIO_2

As we know that rubidium has '1' valence electrons, iodine has '7' valence electrons and oxygen has '6' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in RbIO_2 = 1 + 7 + 2(6) = 20

As we know that RbIO_2  is an ionic compound because it is formed by the transfer of electron takes place from metal to non-metal element.

What is the average velocity of atoms in 1.00 mol of argon (a monatomic gas) at 275 K? For m, use 0.0399 kg. (1 point)
valentinak56 [21]

What is the average velocity of atoms in 1.00 mol of argon (a monatomic gas) at 275 k for m, use 0.0399kg

Answer: The average velocity of the atoms 847.33 m/s.

Explanation:

Moles of the neon = 1.00

Temperature of the gas : 288 K

Mass of the gas = 0.01000

R = 8.31 J/mol K

The average velocity of the atoms 847.33 m/s.
