Answer : The correct option is, (c) pyramidal

Explanation :

As we are given that a molecule in which the central atom forms three single bonds and has one lone pair that means the central metal atom has 3 bond pairs and 1 lone pair of electrons.

There are total 4 electron pairs. So, the hybridization will be sp^3 and the electronic geometry of the molecule will be tetrahedral.

But as there are three atoms or bonds around the central atom and the fourth position occupied by lone pair of electrons. The repulsion between lone and bond pair of electrons is more and hence the molecular geometry will be pyramidal.

Hence, correct option is, (c) pyramidal

Dosage calculation order: 3 mg available: 2 mg per 6 ml how many ml will be given?
Anna35 [415]

9ml will be given for the case of dosage calculation order: 3 mg available: 2 mg per 6 ml

Conversion factors are necessary for dosage calculation, such as when translating from pounds to kilograms or liters to milliliters. This approach, which is straightforward in design, enables physicians to deal with different units of measurement and convert factors to arrive at the solution.

dosage calculation techniques serve as a second or third check on the accuracy of the previous computation techniques. Dimensional Analysis, Ratio Proportion, and Formula or Desired Over Have Method are the three main approaches for dosage calculation. dosage calculations are frequently prescribed and labeled based on their weight or, for solutions, their strength, which is the amount of weight dissolved or suspended in a given volume.

I'm pretty sure it's D. Compounds
Salt water is an example of a solution, and a solution is a type of mixture, so by multiple choice logic none can be the right answer! Seriously though - mixture are combinations of two compounds that are physically combined but do not undergo a chemical reaction with one another to produce a new compound. For instance, when you dissolve salt in water, you don't produce any new products, and you can boil away the water to leave only the salt (a physical method of separation). You cannot separate a compound by physical means because by definition this would be a chemical reaction as you're breaking bonds.
