Answer:- There are 32 valence electrons and it's tetrahedral in shape.
Explanations:- Atomic number of carbon is 6 and it's electron configuration is 
. It has 4 electrons in the outer most shell means it has 4 valence electrons.
Atomic number of Br is 35 and it's electron configuration is 
. It has 7 electrons in the outer most shell(2 in 4s and 5 in 4p) .
There is one C and four Br in the given compound. So, total number of valence electrons = 4+4(7) = 4+28 = 32
Four Br atoms are bonded to the central carbon atom and also there isn't any lone pair present on carbon. It makes it tetrahedral.
Answer: Isotopes of an atom are different because they have different atomic masses and different number of neutrons within their nucleus. They are the same since they will always have the same atomic number/number of protons in their nucleus.
Explanation:
Answer:
Likely to gain electrons
Explanation:
The atom shown is likely to gain additional electrons to complete its electronic configuration.
- Since this is a neutral specie, the number of protons and electrons are the same.
- The atom has 16 electrons
- the number of valence electrons is 6
- If the atom gains two additional electrons, the octet configuration is attained
- Also, the atom can lose 6 electrons to become an octet
The atom will prefer to gain additional 2 electrons to give an octet configuration.
Answer:
Volume = 45.62L
Explanation:
Data;
V1 = 54.9L
T1 = 64°C = (64 + 273.15)k = 337.15K
T2 = 7°C = (7 + 273.15)k = 280.15K
V2 = ?
From Charles law,
The volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature provided that pressure remains constant
V = KT, K = V / T = V1 / T1 = V2 / T2 = V3 / T3 =.........= Vn / Tn
(54.9 / 337.15) = (V2 / 280.15)
V2 = (54.9 * 280.15) / 337.15
V2 = 45.618L
V2 = 45.62L
