Answer:
bent
Explanation:
The chlorite ion has been pictured in the image attached with its two main resonance contributors.
The ion has four regions of electron density as shown. On the basis of the VSEPR theory, we expect a tetrahedral geometry.
However, the ion is bent due to the effect of the lone pairs on chlorine which is the central atom in the ion. This distorts the bond angle of the ion hence the ion has a bent molecular geometry.
Answer:
The minimum rate of fresh air in the room is 176 moles/min
Explanation:
High exposure of CO₂ has health effects as headaches, increased heart rate, elevated blood pressure, coma, asphyxia, convulsions, etc.
0,500 mole% of CO₂ in air means 0,500 moles of CO₂ per 100 moles of air
As the rate of sublimation of CO₂ is 0,880, the minimum rate of fresh air in the room must be:
X = <em>176 moles of Air/min</em>
