According to VSEPR theory , in which fashion will the bonds and lone pairs of electrons be arranged about the central atom in th
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Tetrahedral, trigonal pyramidal, trigonal bipyramidal.

Explanation:

The VSPER theory states that the bonds of sharing electrons and the lone pairs of electrons will repulse as much as possible. So, by the repulsion, the molecule will have some shape.

In the ion PO₄³⁻, the central atom P has 5 electrons in its valence shell, so it needs 3 electrons to be stable. Oxygen has 6 electrons at the valence shell and needs 2 to be stable. 3 oxygens share 1 pair of electrons with P, and the two lone pair remaining in P is shared with the other O, then the central atom makes 4 bonds and has no lone pairs, the shape is tetrahedral.

In the ion H₃O⁺, the central atom O has 6 electrons in its valence shell and needs 2 electrons to be stable. The hydrogen has 1 electron, and need 1 more to be stable. The hydrogens share 1 pair of electrons with the oxygen, then it remains 3 electrons at the central atom, and the VSPER theory states that the shape will be a trigonal pyramidal.

In the AsF₅, the central atom As has 5 valence electrons, and F has 1 electron in its valence shell, so each F shares one pair of electrons with As, and there are no lone pairs in the central atom. For 5 bonds without lone pairs, the shape is trigonal bipyramidal.

marishachu [46]
To answer the question above, substitute the given values to the given equation,
                                   Q(t) = Q x e^-kt
  
                          12 grams = (36 grams) x e^(-0.00011)(t)

Solving for t gives t = 9,987.38 years or approximately equal to 9,990 years. Thus, the answer is letter C.

In terms of energy, how would you classify the following chemical reaction?
olga_2 [115]

1. Answer;

- Exothermic reaction

Explanation;

-Exothermic reactions are types of chemical reactions in which heat energy is released to the surroundings. Since enthalpy change is the difference between the energy of products an that of reactants. It means that in an exothermic reaction the energy of products is less than that of products. In this case an energy of 315kJ is released to the surroundings.

2. Answer;

Conserved

-The total amount of energy before and after a chemical reaction is the same. Thus, energy is conserved.

Explanation;

-According to the law of conservation of energy, energy is neither created nor destroyed. Energy may change form during a chemical reaction. For example, energy may change form from chemical energy to heat energy when gas burns in a furnace. However, the exact amount of energy remains after the reaction as before, which is true for all chemical reactions.
