Question: Predicting the shape of a molecule is relatively straight forward. A molecule's shape will always be determined by the number of electron pairs around the central atom. The number of electron pair corresponds to the number of atoms that are bound to the central atom of the molecule. For example, water contains two hydrogen atom bound to one atom of oxygen, giving the molecule a linear geometry.
Suppose that the model presented by student 1 is correct. Based on the information provided, what would be the bond angle in a molecule of perchlorate ion.
Answer: Suppose that the model presented by student 1 is correct The (perchlorate ion) will be a tetrahedral shape, O-Cl-O bond angle 109.5 due to four groups of bonding electrons and no lone pairs of electrons.
Answer:
When you exert a force on a baseball, there exists an equal and opposite force on the ball therefore, the ball will accelerate in opposite direction.
Explanation:
When you hit a ball with baseball bat, the bat exerts a great force on the ball which causes the ball to accelerate in the opposite direction. It is to be noted that the mass of bat is much greater than mass of ball but the acceleration of ball is also greater than the acceleration of the bat so both bat and ball almost exert same magnitude of force but in opposite direction and as a result both bat and ball accelerate in opposite direction, the deciding factor is of course the relative force applied by the batter and the bowler.
Answer:
Therefore the correct statement is B.
Explanation:
In the interference and diffraction phenomena, the natural wave of electromagnetic radiation must be taken into account, the wave front that advances towards the slit can be considered as when it reaches it behaves like a series of wave emitters, each slightly out of phase from the previous one, following the Huygens principle that states that each point is compiled as a source of secondary waves.
The sum of all these waves results in the diffraction curve of the slit that has the shape
I = Io sin² θ /θ²
Where the angle is a function of the wavelength and the width of the slit.
From the above, the interference phenomenon can be treated as the sum of two diffraction phenomena displaced a distance equal to the separation of the slits (d)
Therefore the correct statement is B
