Answer:
The molecule has a bent geometry
Explanation:
Let us look again at the principles of VSEPR theory. The shape of a molecule depends on the number of electron pairs that surround the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule.
Lone pairs distort the molecular geometry away from what is expected on the basis of VSEPR theory.
The molecule described in the question has the form AEX2. Two substituents and one lone pair form three electron domains around the central atom. The expected geometry is trigonal planar but the observed molecular geometry is bent because of the lone pairs present.
<span>c = speed of light = 3.00 x 10^5 km/s = 3.00 x 10^8 m/s
λ = wavelength of the microwave radiation = 3.50 cm = 0.035 m
f = frequency (in Hertz) = to be determined
f = c/λ = 3.00 x 10^8 m/s / 0.035 m
f = 8.57 x 10^9 Hz Frequency</span>
Secondary growth is important to plants because it involves thickening of the plant axis.It also increased amounts of vascular tissue.
I tried sorry if it’s not worded perfect :)
The loss or gain of electrons
Explanation:
The loss or gain of electrons determines if an atom will become a cation or anion.
A cation is a positively charge ion
An anion is a negatively charged ion.
In an atom, we have sub-atomic particles:
Protons are the positively charged particles
Electrons are negatively charged
Neutrons carry no charges
Only electrons can be lost or gained in chemical processes that forms cations and anions.
When a neutral atom gains electron, it has more electrons than protons. This makes it negatively charged and we call it an anion.
When a neutral atom loses an electron, the number of protons is more. We call it a cation.
