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.

How many moles are in 9.12 x 1023 molecules of sugar?​
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

1.514 moles

Explanation:

For this problem you want to use dimensional analysis and cancel out your molecules of sugar and be left with moles of sugar. We know that 1 mole (of anything) = 6.022 x 10 ^ 23 molecules, so we should use that conversion to help us. Start with 9.12 x 10 ^23 molecules and divide by 6.022 x 10 ^ 23 molecules, and you will be left with moles.

Hope this helps!
