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>

Air is made of nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and small amounts of other gases. What is the pressure of O₂, total is 1 atm if PN₂ = 5
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The pressure of O₂ is 0.8 atm.

Explanation:

The pressure exerted by a particular gas in a mixture is known as its partial pressure. So, Dalton's law states that the total pressure of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the pressures that each gas would exert if it were alone:

PT = PA + PB

This relationship is due to the assumption that there are no attractive forces between the gases.

In this case:

PT=Pnitrogen + Pcarbon dioxide + Pother gases

Being:

  • Pnitrogen: 593.4 mmHg
  • Pcarbon dioxide: 3 mmHg
  • Pother gases: 7.1 mmHg

and replacing:

PT= 593.4 mmHg + 3 mmHg + 7.1 mmHg

you get:

PT= 603.5 mmHg

Being 760 mmHg= 1 atm, you get:

PT= 603.5 mmHg= 0.8 atm

<u><em>The pressure of O₂ is 0.8 atm.</em></u>

Titanium has five common isotopes: 46Ti (8.0%), 47Ti (7.8%), 48Ti (73.4%), 49Ti (5.5%), 50Ti (5.3%). What is the average atomic
NNADVOKAT [17]

Hey there!:

Isotopes :                          abundance :

46 Ti                                       8.0%

47 Ti                                        7.8 %

48 Ti                                      73.4 %

49 Ti                                       5.5 %

50 Ti                                         5.3 %

Weighted average =   ∑ Wa * % / 100

Therefore:

( 46 * 8.0) + (47 * 7.8 ) + (48 * 73.4 ) + ( 49 * 5.5 ) + ( 50*5.3 ) / 100 =

4792.3 / 100

= 47.923 a.m.u


       Hope that helps!

A 100.0 ml sample of 0.10 m ca(oh)2 is titrated with 0.10 m hbr. determine the ph of the solution after the addition of 400.0 ml
WINSTONCH [101]
The balanced equation for the reaction is as follows;
Ca(OH)₂ + 2HBr --> CaBr₂ + 2H₂O
stoichiometry of Ca(OH)₂ to HBr is 1:2
number of Ca(OH)₂ moles reacted - 0.10 mol/L x 0.1000 L = 0.010 mol
Number of HBr moles added - 0.10 mol/L x 0.4000 = 0.040 mol 
1 mol of Ca(OH)₂ needs 2 mol of HBr for neutralisation
therefore 0.010 mol of Ca(OH)₂  needs - 0.010 x 2 = 0.020 mol of HBr to be neutralised
but 0.040 mol of HBr has been added therefore number of moles of HBr in excess - 0.040 - 0.020 = 0.020 mol 
then pH of the medium can be calculated using the excess H⁺ ions
HBr is a strong acid therefore complete ionization
[HBr] = [H⁺]
[H⁺] = 0.020 mol / (100.0 + 400.0 mL)
      = 0.020 mol / 0.5 L 
      = 0.040 mol/L
pH = -log[H⁺] 
pH = - log [0.040 M]
pH = 1.40
pH of the medium is 1.40

A microwave operates at 7.42 mm wavelength. How much energy is produced in Joules from 359 photons?
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

E=9.62\times 10^{-21}\ J

Explanation:

Given that,

The wavelength of a microwave is 7.42 mm or 0.00742 m

No. of photons, n = 359

We need to find the energy produced by this no of photons. It can be given by the formula as follows :

E=\dfrac{nhc}{\lambda}\\\\E=\dfrac{359\times 6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{0.00742}\\\\=9.62\times 10^{-21}\ J

or

E=9.62e^{-21}\ J

So, the required energy is 9.62\times 10^{-21}\ J.
