<h2>Answer:</h2>

They would be arranged in a trigonal planar orientation.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

If there were only three electron groups around an atom they tend to repel each other and gain a trigonal planar orientation. A molecule with three electron groups orients the three groups as far apart as possible. They adopt the positions of an equilateral triangle 120° apart and in a plane. The shape of such molecules is trigonal planar. An example is BF3:

Assoli18 [71]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Solid cesium iodide has the same kind of crystal structure as CsCl which is pictured below: If the edge length of the unit cell is 456.2 pm, what is the density of CsI in g/cm^3

The image is attached below.

<u>Answer:</u> The density of CsI is 9.09g/cm^3

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the density of metal, we use the equation:

\rho=\frac{Z\times M}{N_{A}\times a^{3}}

where,

\rho = density

Z = number of atom in unit cell = 2  (BCC)

M = atomic mass of CsI = 259.8 g/mol

N_{A} = Avogadro's number = 6.022\times 10^{23}

a = edge length of unit cell = 456.2pm=456.2\times 10^{-10}cm    (Conversion factor:  1cm=10^{10}pm  )

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\rho=\frac{1\times 259.8}{6.022\times 10^{23}\times (456.2\times 10^{-10})^3}\\\\\rho=9.09g/cm^3

Hence, the density of CsI is 9.09g/cm^3

Iron is extracted from fe 2o 3 by a reaction with carbon (c) at very high temperature. if you take 2.86 x 10 4 g of fe 2o 3 to r
umka21 [38]
Balanced equation:
2 Fe₂O₃ + 3 C → 4 Fe + 3 CO₂
number of moles of Fe₂O₃ = weight (g) / molar mass = (2.86 x 10⁴ g) / 159.69 g/mol = 179 moles
number of moles of C = (9.05 x 10³) / 12 = 754.16 moles
2 moles of Fe₂O₃ reacts with 3 moles of C
so 179 moles of Fe₂O₃ need 268.5 moles of C only
so carbon present in excess (754.16) and Fe₂O₃ is the limiting reactant so the number of moles used from Fe₂O₃ will be all the 179 moles
