tell me what to do dudette
Answer:
They reduce the bond angle to be slightly lower than the tetrahedral bond angle, approximately 104.45 degrees.
Explanation:
The unshared pair of electrons or lone pair electrons in order to have the minimum repulsion possible with each other pushes the other bonding pairs closer together making the bond angle smaller or bent.
The bond angle is slightly lower than the tetrahedral bond angle of 108 degrees, leaving the water molecule with a bent molecular geometry.
Answer:
3) NaCl.
Explanation:
<em>∵ ΔTf = iKf.m</em>
where, <em>i</em> is the van 't Hoff factor.
<em>Kf </em>is the molal depression freezing constant.
<em>m</em> is the molality of the solute.
<em>The van 't Hoff factor is the ratio between the actual concentration of particles produced when the substance is dissolved and the concentration of a substance as calculated from its mass. </em>
<em></em>
- For most non-electrolytes dissolved in water, the van 't Hoff factor is essentially 1.
<em>So, for sugar: i = 1.</em>
<em>∴ ΔTf for sugar = iKf.m = (1)(Kf)(2.0 m) = 2 Kf.</em>
<em></em>
- For most ionic compounds dissolved in water, the van 't Hoff factor is equal to the number of discrete ions in a formula unit of the substance.
For NaCl, it is electrolyte compound which dissociates to Na⁺ and Cl⁻.
<em>So, i for NaCl = 2.</em>
<em>∴ ΔTf for NaCl = iKf.m = (2)(Kf)(1.0 m) = 2 Kf.</em>
<em></em>
<em>So, the right choice is: 3) NaCl.</em>
