Answer:
a) octahedral electron domain geometry
b)square planar molecular geometry
c) a bond angle of 90°
Explanation:
According to the Valence Shell Electron Pair repulsion Theory, the shape of a molecule is dependent on the number of electron pairs on the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule. These electron pairs orient themselves as far apart in space as possible to minimize electron pair repulsion.
Electron pairs may be lone pairs or bond pairs. Lone pairs of electrons cause more repulsion than bond pairs. These lone pairs often cause the molecular geometry to depart from what is predicted on the basis of the electron domain geometry due to greater repulsion of lone pairs.
When a molecule has six electron domains consisting of four bond pairs and two lone pairs, the bonding pairs arrange themselves at the corners of a square at a bond angle of 90° with the lone pairs found above and below the plane of the bonding groups leading to a square planar molecular geometry
Answer:
B. Electrical charges of polar covalent bonds
Explanation:
Lewis structures, also known as Lewis dot diagrams are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule and lone pairs of an electron that may exist in the molecule.
Polar covalent bonds are bonds that occur where a pair of electrons is shared unevenly between two atoms
The Lewis notation as an agreed convection, uses the delta sign to indicate polar covalent bonds when they occur in compounds. It shows that the electrons are shared unevenly.
Consider the example attached below. The Lewis structure for HF is given. the δ+ is used to show the electropositive Hydrogen atom while the δ- is used to show the electronegative Fluorine atom in the bond.
The answer is 254 bc you just subtract
Answer:
The "2" applies only to the sodium, and sugar is a substance
Explanation:
The amount of atoms in an element are written using small letters after the element they refer to.
Answer:
5
Explanation:
Let us look at the values very closely. It is easy to see that the first to the fifth ionization energies of the element are closely related to each other. Recall that the ionization energy increases as the the number of electrons removed from the outermost shell of the atom increases. Hence E1<E2<E3......... The first five ionization energies suggest the removal of valence shell electrons.
However, the sixth and seventh ionization energies shows a jump, the ionization energy suddenly increases by a very high magnitude. This can not suggest the removal of a valence shell electron but the removal of inner or core electrons. Hence the answer.
