Answer:
Oxygen is more electronegative than sulphur
Explanation:
Bond angle of a molecule is related to the electronegativity of the central atom. The more electronegative the central atom is, the greater the bond angle.
As electronegativity of the central atom increases, the magnitude of bond pair- bond pair repulsion increases leading to increase in bond angle.
Hence, oxygen, being more electronegative than sulphur asserts a greater bond pair- bond pair repulsion leading to a greater bond angle in water.
Decomposition reactions are a type of chemical reaction that involves breaking down a compound into smaller compounds or individual elements. These reactions often involve an input of energy in the form of heat, light, or electricity to break down the compounds.
Answer:
V = 1.434 L
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of argon = 4.24 g
Temperature = 58.2 °C
Pressure = 1528 torr
Volume = ?
Solution:
58.2 °C = 58.2 + 273 = 331.2 K
1528/760= 2.01 atm
<em>Number of moles:</em>
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 4.24 g / 39.948 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.106 mol
<em>Volume:</em>
PV = nRT
V = nRT/P
V = 0.106 mol ×0.0821. atm. L. mol⁻¹. K⁻¹ × 331.2K/ 2.01 atm
V = 2.88 atm L/ 2.01 atm
V = 1.434 L
This means that there are 7 protons in the nucleus of a nitrogen atom.
