Answer:

sp³;

sp²;

sp;

None;

One;

Two;

They're used to pi bonds.

Explanation:

The central atom in a molecule is generally the one that can make a greater number of bonds. The covalent bonds are made by the sharing of electrons, and, for that, the electron must be alone in the orbital.

To explain this, the hybridization theory was created, which states that, the orbitals are joined to form hybrids ones, and so, by the Hund's law, the electrons are alone in them.

The sigma bonds are done in the hybrids orbitals, and at the pure orbitals, the pi bonds are done. The lone pair of electrons are at a pure orbital. So, to know the hybridization of the central atom, we must know how many sigma bonds it does, and it will be the number of hybrids orbitals (each orbital may have two electrons, thus each bond are done in one orbital).

Double bonds and triple bonds have always only one sigma bond, so the number of sigma bonds is equal to the number of bonds, it's not necessary to know if they are simple, double or triple.

When the arrangement is tetrahedral, the central atom does 4 bonds, so it has 4 sigma bonds, and 4 hybrids orbitals (one of s and three for p), does its hybridization is sp³. Because exists only 3 p orbitals, there are no unhybridized p orbitals in this case.

When the arrangement is trigonal, the central atom does 3 bonds, so it has 3 hybrids orbitals (one of s and two of p), thus the hybridization is sp². So there are one unhybridized p orbitals.

When the arrangement is linear, the central atom does 2 bonds, so it has 2 hybrids orbitals (one of s and one of p), thus the hybridization is sp. So, there are two unhybridized p atoms.

As stated before, the unhybridized p orbitals are used to pi bonds.

WHICH IS WHICH?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

- First: element.

- Second: Compound.

- Third: element.

- Fourth: Compound.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since elements are composed the same atom and compounds are composed by two different atoms, we can see that:

- First: it is an element as each sphere seems to be the same.

- Second: It is a compound as two different type of spheres are shown, white and black, considering each sphere is a different element.

- Third: it is an element because the spheres are equal, in fact, it is a diatomic element as two atoms are joined per molecule.

- Fourth: It is a compound as well since each molecule has two colored spheres and one white sphere, meaning that it has two different atoms per molecule.

Best regards.!

For the reaction of hydrogen with iodine
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

r_{H_2} = \frac{-1}{2} r_{HI}

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, considering the given chemical reaction:

H_2(g) + I_2(g) \rightarrow 2HI(g)

Thus, by applying the law of rate proportions, we can write:

\frac{1}{-1} r_{H_2} = \frac{1}{-1}r_{i_2} = \frac{1}{2} r_{HI}

Whereas the stoichiometric coefficients of reactants are negative due their disappearance and that of the product is positive due to its appearance. In such a way, when we relate the rate of disappearance of hydrogen gas to the rate of formation of hydrogen iodide, we obtain:

r_{H_2} = \frac{-1}{2} r_{HI}

Best regards!

Hello there!
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

Mass of carbon dioxide = 7.48 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of lithium carbonate = 12.5 g

Mass of carbon dioxide produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Li₂CO₃  →  Li₂O + CO₂

Number of moles of Li₂CO₃:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 12.5 g /73.89 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.17 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Li₂CO₃  with CO₂.

                   Li₂CO₃        :            CO₂

                     1                :               1

                  0.17             :             0.17

Mass of carbon dioxide:

Mass of carbon dioxide = number of moles × molar mass

Mass of carbon dioxide =   0.17 mol ×  44 g/mol

Mass of carbon dioxide = 7.48 g
