Why does a water molecule have a bent shape?

Chemistry
1 answer:
a_sh-v [17]3 years ago
3 0
The 2 lone electron pairs exerts a little extra repulsion on the two bonding hydrogen atoms to create a slight compression to a 104obond angle. The water molecule is bent molecular geometry because the lone electron pairs, although still exerting influence on the shape, are invisible when looking at molecular geometry.

If this decay has a half life of 2.60 years, what mass of 72.5 g of sodium 22 will remain after 15.6 years
Vlad1618 [11]

Sodium-22 remain : 1.13 g

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.  

Usually, radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.  

General formulas used in decay:  

\large{\boxed{\bold{N_t=N_0(\dfrac{1}{2})^{T/t\frac{1}{2} }}}

T = duration of decay  

t 1/2 = half-life  

N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms  

Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time  

half-life = t 1/2=2.6 years

T=15.6 years

No=72.5 g

\tt Nt=72.5.\dfrac{1}{2}^{15.6/2.6}\\\\Nt=72.5.\dfrac{1}{2}^6\\\\Nt=1.13~g

What is the density of an object that has a volume of 34.2 cm^3 and a mass of 19.6 g? (a) 0.573 g/cm^3 (b) 1.74 g/cm^3 (c) 670 g
KengaRu [80]

Answer: The density of the object will be 0.573g/cm^3

Explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

Density=\frac{mass}{Volume}

Given : Mass of object = 19.6 grams

Volume of object= 34.2cm^3

Putting in the values we get:

Density=\frac{19.6g}{34.2cm^3}=0.573g/cm^3

Thus density of the object will be 0.573g/cm^3

What atom or ion make up 2 protons and 10 electrons?
Gala2k [10]
The atom that is made up of two protons is He. The number of neutrons is also two. The number of electrons matters in the charge. So to make 10 electrons, we add 8 more. hence, 4/2 He 8-.
