CO2, C2H2, BeF2, XeF2, etc all these molecules have linear geometry.
Alinara [238K]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

There are a few examples of different type of molecules that have a linear geometry:

1) Diatomic molecules

Diatomic molecules always have a linear geomerty given that its their only possiblility.

Some examples are: Oxygen (O2), Nitrogen (N2), Fluorine (F2), Choridic acid (HCl).

2) Triatomic molecules with no lone pair electrons

In this case, the absence of lone pair electrons keeps a linear geometry in molecules such a carbon dioxide (CO2).

If the molecule would have this electrons the repulsion generated between them and the electrons from the atomic bonds would create an angular geometry.

Because they insulate either the heat or the coolness within the food item. But keep in mind- when it comes to electricity aluminum isn’t an insulator.

Analysis of a gaseous chlorofluorocarbon, CClxFy, shows that it contains 11.79% C and 69.57% Cl. In another experiment, you find
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The molecular formula = C_2Cl_{4}F_2

Explanation:

Moles =\frac {Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

% of C = 11.79

Molar mass of C = 12.0107 g/mol

<u>% moles of C = 11.79 / 12.0107 = 0.9816</u>

% of Cl = 69.57

Molar mass of Cl = 35.453 g/mol

<u>% moles of Cl = 69.57 / 35.453 = 1.9623</u>

Given that the gaseous chlorofluorocarbon only contains chlorine, flourine and carbon. So,

% of F = 100% - % of C - % of C = 100 - 11.79 - 69.57 = 18.64

Molar mass of F = 18.998 g/mol

<u>% moles of F = 18.64 / 18.998 = 0.9812</u>

Taking the simplest ratio for C, Cl and F as:

0.9816 : 1.9623 : 0.9812

= 1 : 2 : 1

The empirical formula is = CCl_2F

Also, Given that:

Pressure = 21.3 mm Hg

Also, P (mm Hg) = P (atm) / 760

Pressure = 21.3 / 760 = 0.02803 atm

Temperature = 25 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T = (25 + 273.15) K = 298.15 K  

Volume = 458 mL  = 0.458 L (1 mL = 0.001 L)

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

0.02803 atm × 0.458 L = n × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 298.15 K  

⇒n = 0.00052445 moles

Given that :  

Amount  = 0.107 g  

Molar mass = ?

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

0.00052445= \frac{0.107\ g}{Molar\ mass}

Molar\ mass= 204.0233\ g/mol

Molecular formulas is the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound while empirical formulas is the simplest or reduced ratio of the elements in the compound.

Thus,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

Where, n is any positive number from 1, 2, 3...

Mass from the Empirical formula = 1×12.0107 + 2×35.453 + 1×18.998 = 101.9147 g/mol

Molar mass = 204.0233 g/mol

So,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

204.0233 = n × 101.9147

⇒ n = 2

<u>The molecular formula = C_2Cl_{4}F_2</u>

33 protons 36 electrons 45 neutrons
Artist 52 [7]

As has an atomic number of 33, so it has 33 protons.  

It has a charge of 3-, so there are three more electrons than protons. Thus, there are 36 electrons.  

It has a mass of 75, which is the sum of neutrons and protons.  

33+n=75 ---> n = 75 - 33 = 42 neutrons  

The answer is e) 33 protons, 42 neutrons and 36 electrons.
