A molecule with formula AX3E uses SP3 to form its bonds.
Where A is the metal
X is any halogen which is bonded to it.
E is the lone pair
∴ A requires four electron pairs and tetrahedral.
Where tetrahedral symmetry is SP3 hybridized

A 475 ml sample of a gas was collected at room temperature of 23.5 °C and a pressure of
Molodets [167]

Answer:

The volume when the conditions were altered is 0.5109 L or 510.9 mL

Explanation:

Using the general gas equation,

P1 V1 / T1 = P2 V2 / T2

where;

P1 = 756 mmHg

V1 = 475 ml = 0.475 L

T1 = 23.5°C = 23.5 + 273K = 275.5 K

P2 = 722 mm Hg

T2 = 10°C = 10 + 273 K = 283 K

V2 = ?

Rearranging to make V2 the subject of the formula, we obtain:

V2 = P1 V1 T2 / P2 T1

V2 = 756 * 0.475 * 283 / 722 * 275.5

V2 = 101, 625.3 / 198911

V2 = 0.5109 L or  510.9 mL

Manganese has a total of 25 electrons, but the following orbital notation for manganese is incorrect. Explain the error in terms
laila [671]
The Orbital configuration for Manganese is as follows:

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d5

It says 3d is shown with five orbitals- this is correct

Then it says the first two orbitals have two electrons-this is incorrect. 

When filling in the orbitals for any element, you first need to distribute to ALL orbitals then extras go from there.

The orbital d can have up to 10 electrons so you need to distribute at least one electron to all ten. Since you only have 5 then only 5 orbitals would have electrons in them. In order for ANY of the orbitals to have two electrons, there would need to be AT LEAST 11 electrons to distribute.

How to identify lone pairs and bond pairs?
RUDIKE [14]
In a chemical bonding the  electrons that are in the outer most orbital are the one's involved in bonding. The aim of bonding is that each of the atoms must have an octet of electons ( but there are exception which do not follow this rule ) in their valence orbital in order to become stable.Atoms can either loses, gain or share electrons in order to reach this desired state. In a case where they share, they might share all their valence electrons either with the same or different atoms or a certain number of their electron which will end up with them having eight electrons in their valence orbital. Once the atoms have bonded, the remaining electrons that are not shared between the atoms are called the unshared elctron pair and the electrons that are shared and involved in forming bonds are called the shared electron pair. the unshared electron pair can be shared with another atom that has lost it's electrons, this pair is then called a lone pair.

Why would you add a catalyst to something
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

If this related to science, then you would add a catalyst to speed up a reaction.

Explanation:

The definition of a catalyst is: "a substance that causes or accelerates a chemical reaction without itself being affected".

Examples of this include the enzymes in our stomach acid that aid in digestion.
