The electron geometry of a water molecule is tetrahedral even though the molecular geometry is bent.

As water molecule hybridisation is sp³ that provides it a electron geometry tetrahedral but due to presence of 2 lone pairs and 2 bond pairs its molecular geometry is bent.

The hybridisation sp³ makes  electron geometry of a water molecule tetrahedral but the presence of 2 lone pairs makes its  molecular geometry bent

Answer:

the electron geometry of a water molecule is tetrahedral.

Explanation:

There are four pair of electrons on oxygen central atom, these electron pairs are arranged in tetrahedral manner and thus electron geometry is tetrahedral.

The hybridization is sp³ and thus there are four hybridized orbitals,

However there are two bonded electron pairs and two lone pair of electrons.

Thus the two hydrogen atoms are arranged in bent shape.

As a cooking method, braising is valued for its A. ability to retain flavor. B. quickness and convenience. C. ability to create
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Braising means first of all fry a dish slightly and then cook it slowly in a closed vessel or dish. The vessel is close so that the liquid present inside it does not evaporates.

Also, Braising is done to mix the flavors of different liquids or spices appropriately.  

Thus, we can conclude that as a cooking method, braising is valued for its ability to retain flavor.

Answer:

Multiply 1.25 by 0.04 and divide the result obtained by 1,000

Explanation:

Since there is .04 oz in 1 gram, we take the 1.25 gram and multiply by .04.

Next, to convert per liter to per milliliter, we divide by 1,000.

30 Points! What is the difference between an atom and an ion
ValentinkaMS [17]
Atom is a neutral element found in nature without any charge. In other words, it has same number of Protons and electrons, whereas ion is a charged thing, either positive or negative. We can find their charge by:

Charge = Number of Protons - Number of Electrons

Hope this helps!

Which of the following is an example of an exothermic reaction? silt settling out of muddy water, bubbles forming in soda, photo
Rudik [331]
Fireworks
An exothermic reaction is one where the products have lower energy than the reactants, so the reaction yields energy. The chemical compounds present in firework fuel release a lot of energy upon oxidation. Photosynthesis is endothermic, settling of silt is not a chemical reaction, it is a physical change. Finally, the bubble formation in soda is not exothermic; otherwise, the sodas would become very hot very fast.

A 2.26 M solution of KOH is prepared. Calculate the moles and mass of solute present in a 15.2-mL sample of this solution. The m
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

0.0344 moles and 1.93g.

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the ratio between moles of a solute (In this case, KOH), and the volume. With molarity and volume we can solve the moles of solute. With moles of solute we can find mass of the solute as follows:

<em>Moles KOH:</em>

15.2mL = 0.0152L * (2.26mol / L) = 0.0344moles

<em>Mass KOH:</em>

0.0344 moles * (56.11g/mol) = 1.93g of KOH
