According to VSEPR theory, what is the shape of a molecule of CS2? A bent B trigonal-planar C tetrahedral D linear

Chemistry
1 answer:
goblinko [34]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

D linear

Explanation:

Valence electrons of carbon = 4

Valence electrons of sulfur = 6

The total number of the valence electrons  = 4 + 2(6) = 16

The Lewis structure is drawn in such a way that the octet of each atom in the molecule is complete. So,

The Lewis structure is:

: \ddot S :: C:: \ddot S :

There is no lone pair involved, so, It is of type AB₂.

<em><u>According to the theory, the atoms will form a geometry in such a way that there is minimum repulsion and maximum stability. </u></em>

<em><u>So, it is of linear shape.</u></em>

What is the nucleotide sequence of an mrna strand that has been transcribed from the dna sequence ggtagc?
lys-0071 [83]

CCAUCG  is the nucleotide sequence of an mrna strand that has been transcribed from the dna sequence ggtagc.

<h3>What is a nucleotide sequence?</h3>
  • Transfer RNAs interact with the ribosome system to translate a nucleic acid sequence, known as a messenger RNA or mRNA, into the protein it encodes.
  • Transfer RNAs partition the nucleic acid sequence into triplet codons, each of which specifies one amino acid, by binding to three nucleotides at once.
  • The sequence does not contain punctuation signals to indicate which reading frame should be used, hence the nucleic acid can be read in three different phases or reading frames depending on the point at which division into codons begins.
  • An addition or deletion in the nucleic acid sequence that changes the translation process from one reading frame to another is known as a frameshift mutation.

To know more about the nucleotide sequence, refer:

Based on the electron configuration of the elements below, answer the question. <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5E%7B12%7D_6C
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 12

Explanation:

Data

Number of electrons in Phosphorus 3+ ion

Process

1.- The sign of the number after the name indicates if the element has lost or gained electrons.

If the sign is positive the element has lost electrons

If the sign is negative the element has gained electrons.

2.- Phosphorus atomic number is 15, then the number of electrons in Phosphorus 3+ will be 12, in this example, Phosphorus lost 3 electrons.

What pressure is exerted by 932.3 g of CH4 in a 0.560 L steel container at 136.2 K?
Roman55 [17]
Molar mass CH4 = 16.0 g/mol

* number of moles:

932.3 / 16 => 58.26875 moles

T = 136.2 K

V = 0.560 L

P = ?

R = 0.082

Use the clapeyron equation:

P x V = n x R x T

P x 0.560 =  58.26875 x 0.082 x 136.2

P x 0.560 = 650.76

P = 650.76 / 0.560

P = 1162.07 atm
