Answer:
Two non bonded electron pairs and four bonded electron pairs
Explanation:
An image of the compound as obtained from chemlibretext is attached to this answer.
The ion ICl4- ion, is an AX4E2 ion. This implies that there are four bond pairs and two lone pairs of electrons. As expected, the shape of the ion is square planar since the lone pairs are found above and below the plane of the square. This is clear from the image attached.
You can differentiate between ionic, covalent and molecular compounds by the fact that ionic compounds contain elements that include both a metal and a nonmetal. Molecular compounds contain both non metals covalently bonded to each other. While acids most often on their chemical formula start with the element of Hydrogen - H.
For Eg - sulphuric acid
H2SO4
hydrochloric acid - HCl.
Answer:
A positive ions is always smaller than the corresponding atom.
A negative ion is always larger than the corresponding atom.
Explanation:
The reason for this is that, when a positive ion is formed, a full shell is usually removed with its electrons thereby reducing the size of the electron cloud and decreasing the size of the electron cloud.
A negative ion is formed by addition of more electrons to the electron cloud hence it spreads out. Interelectronic repulsion accounts for the larger size of the negative ion.
Answer:
I know that Aerogel is the lightest metal in existence, but I don't think it would help much with your answer. I mean you can give it a try?
Given :
Human blood should have around 1.04 kg/L platelets.
A blood sample of 4.01 milliliters is collected from a patient to be analyzed for a platelet count.
To Find :
The expected mass in grams of platelets in the blood sample.
Solution :
1 L of human blood contains 1.04 kg of platelets.
So, amount of platelets is 1 ml blood is :
Mass of platelets in 4.01 ml blood is :
Hence, this is the required solution.
