Answer:

Tetrahedral

Explanation:

A molecule has four bonded atoms around a central atom. The central atom does not have any lone pairs of electrons. An example is CCl4, here the central C atom has 4 valence electrons, and the C makes a covalent bond with each of the four Cl atoms. In a C-Cl covalent bond an electron pair is shared. After fur C-Cl bonds C is left with no valence electron, hence there are no lone pair of electrons on C. Each of the four C-Cl bonds is directed towards the four corners of a tetrahedron.

Tetrahedral. like methan ch4 it doesn t have lone pairs of electrons and the bonds are oriented with a 109* 28' angle and a tetrahedron has the angles of 109 degrees so almost the same.

[please answer fast!] If the hydroxide ion concentration is 2x10^-3 M, what is the pH of the solution? Show your working.
Verizon [17]

Answer:

pH = 11.30

Explanation:

pH is defined as -log [H⁺]

To find [H⁺] from [OH⁻] -Concentration of hydroxide ion-, we must use the equilibrium of water:

H₂O(l) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

Keq = 1x10⁻¹⁴ = [H⁺] [OH⁻]

[H⁺] = 1x10⁻¹⁴ / [OH⁻]

[H⁺] = 1x10⁻¹⁴ / 2x10⁻³M

[H⁺] = 5x10⁻¹²M

pH = -log (5x10⁻¹²M)

<h3>pH = 11.30</h3>

Preparation of Standard Buffer for Calibration of a pH Meter The glass electrode used in commercial pH meters gives an electrica
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

  • Mass of NaH₂PO₄·H₂O = 8.542 g
  • Mass of Na₂HPO₄ = 5.410 g

Explanation:

Keeping in mind the equilibrium:

H₂PO₄⁻ ↔ HPO₄⁻² + H⁺

We use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation (H-H):

pH = pka + log\frac{[A^{-}]}{[HA]}

For this problem [A⁻] = [HPO₄⁻²] and [HA] = [H₂PO₄⁻]

From literature we know that pka = 7.21, from the problem we know that pH=7.00 and that

[HPO₄⁻²] + [H₂PO₄⁻] = 0.100 M

From this equation we can <u>express [H₂PO₄⁻] in terms of [HPO₄⁻²]</u>:

[H₂PO₄⁻] = 0.100 M - [HPO₄⁻²]

And then replace [H₂PO₄⁻] in the H-H equation, <u>in order to calculate [HPO₄⁻²]</u>:

7.00=7.21+log\frac{[HPO4^{-2}] }{0.100 M-[HPO4^{-2}]} \\-0.21=log\frac{[HPO4^{-2}] }{0.100 M-[HPO4^{-2}]}\\10^{-0.21} =\frac{[HPO4^{-2}] }{0.100 M-[HPO4^{-2}]}\\0.616*(0.100M-[HPO4^{-2}])=[HPO4^{-2}]\\0.0616 M = 1.616*[HPO4^{-2}]\\0.03812 M =[HPO4^{-2}]

With the value of  [H₂PO₄⁻],<u> we calculate [HPO₄⁻²]</u>:

[HPO₄⁻²] + 0.0381 M = 0.100 M

[HPO₄⁻²] = 0.0619 M

Finally, using the concentrations, the volume, and the molecular weights; we can calculate the weight of each substance:

  • Mass of NaH₂PO₄·H₂O = 0.0619 M * 1 L * 138 g/mol = 8.542 g
  • Mass of Na₂HPO₄ = 0.0381 M * 1 L * 142 g/mol = 5.410 g

How many molecules of iodine are produced when 9.3×1026 molecules of chlorine gas react with lithium iodide?
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

9.3x10^{26}molec\ I_2

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, considering the balanced chemical reaction:

Cl₂ + 2LiI ⇒ 2LiCl + I₂

We can see there is a 1:1 mole ratio between the produced iodine and the used chlorine, thus, we infer that the number of molecules of iodine given those of chlorine turn out:

9.3x10^{26}molec\ Cl_2*\frac{6.022x10^{23}molec\ I_2}{6.022x10^{23}molec\ Cl_2} =9.3x10^{26}molec\ I_2

Best regards!

The pH of a solution is 9.63 ± 0.03 . What is the concentration of H + in the solution and its absolute uncertainty?
Helga [31]

Explanation:

The pH of the solution is 9.63 ± 0.03.

we know that

pH= -log[H+]

⇒[H+] =10^{-pH}

=10^{-9.63} = 2.34\times10^{-10}

Now to find absolute error we use the formula

Absolute error/[H+] =ln10(uncertainity)

Absolute error = ln10×[H+] ×0.03

=ln10\times2.34\times10^{-10}\times0.03

= 9.45\times10^{-12}
