Answer:
CCl4- tetrahedral bond angle 109°
PF3 - trigonal pyramidal bond angles less than 109°
OF2- Bent with bond angle much less than 109°
I3 - linear with bond angles = 180°
A molecule with two double bonds and no lone pairs - linear molecule with bond angle =180°
Explanation:
Valence shell electron-pair repulsion theory (VSEPR theory) helps us to predict the molecular shape, including bond angles around a central atom, of a molecule by examination of the number of bonds and lone electron pairs in its Lewis structure. The VSEPR model assumes that electron pairs in the valence shell of a central atom will adopt an arrangement which tends to minimize repulsions between these electron pairs by maximizing the distance between them. The electrons in the valence shell of a central atom are either bonding pairs of electrons, located primarily between bonded atoms, or lone pairs. The electrostatic repulsion of these electrons is reduced when the various regions of high electron density assume positions as far apart from each other as possible.
Lone pairs and multiple bonds are known to cause more repulsion than single bonds and bond pairs. Hence the presence of lone pairs or multiple bonds tend to distort the molecular geometry geometry away from that predicted on the basis of VSEPR theory. For instance CCl4 is tetrahedral with no lone pair and four regions of electron density around the central atom. This is the expected geometry. However OF2 also has four regions of electron density but has a bent structure. The molecule has four regions of electron density but two of them are lone pairs causing more repulsion. Hence the observed bond angle is less than 109°.
state what the lab is about, that is, what scientific concept (theory, principle, procedure, etc.) you are supposed to be learning about by doing the lab. You should do this briefly, in a sentence or two. If you are having trouble writing the opening sentence of the report, you can try something like: "This laboratory experiment focuses on X…"; "This lab is designed to help students learn about, observe, or investigate, X…." Or begin with a definition of the scientific concept: "X is a theory that…."
2. give the necessary background for the scientific concept by telling what you know about it (the main references you can use are the lab manual, the textbook, lecture notes, and other sources recommended by the lab manual or lab instructor; in more advanced labs you may also be expected to cite the findings of previous scientific studies related to the lab). In relatively simple labs you can do this in a paragraph following the initial statement of the scientific concept of the lab. But in more complex labs, the background may require more paragraphs.
Answer:
2.86g
Explanation:
Mass of HCl = 2.87g
Mass of water = 3.75g
Mass of NaCl = 1.98g
Unknown:
Mass of NaOH reacted = ?
Solution:
The reaction expression is given as:
HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H₂O
According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of reactants and products must be the same.
Mass of HCl + Mass of NaOH = Mass of NaCl + Mass of H₂O
2.87g + Mass of NaOH = 1.98g + 3.75g
Mass of NaOH = 1.98g + 3.75g - 2.87g = 2.86g
Answer: A. -396 kJ
Explanation:
The standard enthalpy of formation or standard heat of formation of a compound is the change of enthalpy during the formation of 1 mole of the substance from its constituent elements, with all substances in their standard states.
Reversing the reaction, changes the sign of 
On multiplying the reaction by 2, enthalpy gets multiplied by 2:
Thus the enthalpy change for the reaction is -396 kJ.
