Answer: tetrahedral

Explanation:

Hybridization is calculated using the Lewis dot structures of all the compounds.

Formula used to calculate the number of atomic orbitals around central metal atom is:

Number of atomic orbitals around central metal atom = Number of bond pairs + Number of lone pairs

Bond pairs for a double bond and triple bond is taken as 1 only.

Given:  Number of bond pairs = 4

Number of lone pairs = 0

If Number of atomic orbitals around central metal atom are 4 , the hybridization is sp^3 and electron domain geometry is tetrahedral.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

Fewer hydrogen bonds form between alcohol molecules. As a result, less heat is needed for alcohol molecules to break away from solution and enter the air.

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonding is a kind of intermolecular interaction that occurs when hydrogen is bonded to a highly electronegative atom.

Both water and alcohols exhibit hydrogen bonding. However, alcohols exhibit fewer hydrogen bonds than water.

As a result of this, the temperature of evaporation is much higher for water than for alcohol because hydrogen bonds hold water molecules more closely than alcohol molecules are held.

How many electrons can be held in a sublevel l = 3?
muminat
There can be two electrons in one orbital maximum. The s sublevel has just one orbital, so can contain 2 electrons max. The p sublevel has 3 orbitals, so can contain 6 electrons max. The d sublevel has 5 orbitals, so can contain 10 electrons max.

Hope this helped
