Answer : The hybridization of the bromine in BrO_2^{-} is, sp^3

Explanation :

Formula used  :

\text{Number of electron pair}=\frac{1}{2}[V+N-C+A]

where,

V = number of valence electrons present in central atom

N = number of monovalent atoms bonded to central atom

C = charge of cation

A = charge of anion

Now we have to determine the hybridization of the bromine in BrO_2^{-} molecule.

The given molecule is, BrO_2^{-}

\text{Number of electrons}=\frac{1}{2}\times [7+1]=4

The number of electron pair are 4 that means the hybridization will be sp^3 and the electronic geometry of the molecule will be tetrahedral.

But as there are 2 atoms around the central oxygen atom, the third and fourth position will be occupied by lone pair of electrons. The repulsion between lone and bond pair of electrons is more and hence the molecular geometry will be bent or angular.

Hence, the hybridization of the bromine in BrO_2^{-} is, sp^3

Which of these is a pure substance?
scoundrel [369]
B. Sugar is a pure substance.
It is sugar because sugar is made up of one atom or molecule. 
A) penny is not correct because a penny is made up of copper, zinc, and tin.
C) ocean water is not correct because its made out of water (h2o) and salt.
D) iced tea is not correct because it takes many atoms to combine in order to make tea, then you have to add water and ice to make it an iced tea.

Hope this helps! :)

1, 4, 1, 2, 1

Explanation:

We have the following chemical reaction:

MnO₂ + HCl → MnCl₂ + H₂O + Cl₂

To balance the chemical equation the number of atoms of each element entering the reaction have to be equal to the number of atoms of each element leaving the reaction, in order to conserve the mass.

So the balanced chemical equation is:

MnO₂ + 4 HCl → MnCl₂ + 2 H₂O + Cl₂
