Consider an AB3 molecule in which A and B differ in elec-tronegativity. You are told that the molecule has an over-all dipole mo

ment of zero. Which of the following could be the molecular geometry of the molecule? (a) Trigonal pyramidal (b) Trigonal planar (c) T-shaped (d) Tetrahedral (e) More than one of the above

Answer:

(b) Trigonal planar

Explanation:

The molecular geometry is the one that stabilizes better the bonds and the free electron pairs. If the molecule is nonpolar (overall dipole moment zero), so, there's no free electron pairs at the central atom. So, the molecule has the central atom A surrounded by three atoms of B, which is the trigonal planar geometry.

An aqueous solution of __________ will produce a basic solution. nacl nh4clo4 na2so3 kbr nahso4
scoundrel [369]
I think the correct answer would be NH4ClO4. It would produce a basic solution since as it dissociates into ions OH ions are being formed as the concentration of this increases, the pH of the solution would increase as well making it basic. Hope this helps.

8.8 Why do esters with higher molecular mass not have strong fragrances?​
Lerok [7]

Answer:

Basically, fragrances reach other person through sense of smell. So, the strength of the fragrances depends a lot on its evaporation, which is strongly related to the boiling point. Esters with higher molecular weight do not have a strong fragrance because it has a higher boiling point.

The arrows in the chart below represent phase transitions.
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

a. 1,2,and 3.

Explanation:

When something turns liquid, e.g. metal, you need to heat it. When something turns gas, e.g. water, you need to heat it. And when something goes directly from solid to gas, e.g. dry ice, carbon dioxide, you need to add heat to it. hope this helps! Please mark brainiest.
