Answer:

a Lewis acidic metal center with Lewis basic ligands surrounding it.

Explanation:

A lewis acid is a chemical specie capable of accepting a lone pair of electrons while a lewis base is a chemical specie capable of donating a lone pair of electrons.

In a coordination compound, a lewis acid(central metal atom/ion) accepts electron pairs from lewis bases (ligands). Any chemical specie called a ligand must possess at least one electron pair available for coordinate covalent bonding.

Coordination compounds are usually formed between transition metal atoms/ions and neutral molecules having lone pairs of electrons or anionc species .

Which gas would have the slowest rate of diffusion, assuming that all gases are at the same temperature?
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer: radon (atomic mass 222 amu

Explanation:

To calculate the rate of diffusion of gas, we use Graham's Law.

This law states that the rate of effusion or diffusion of gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas. The equation given by this law follows:

\text{Rate of diffusion}\propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{Molar mass of the gas}}}

atomic mass of krypton= 83.8 amu

atomic mass of argon= 39.95 amu

atomic mass of xenon = 131.3 amu

atomic mass of radon= 222 amu

Thus as atomic mass of radon is highest, its rate of diffusion is slowest.

What happens to sodium chloride when it dissolves in water
inn [45]

Image result for What happens to sodium chloride when it dissolves in water

Explanation: On addition to water the Na+ section of NaCl is attracted to the oxygen side of the water molecules, while the Cl- side is attracted to the hydrogens' side of the water molecule. This causes the sodium chloride to split in water, and the NaCl dissolves into separate Na+ and Cl- atoms

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Entropy is measure of disorder so as we lower the temperature of gas , its entropy decreases .

Hence at - 200°C entropy of nitrogen will be less than that at - 190°C .

At freezing point ,

entropy of fusion  = latent heat / freezing temperature

= .71 kJ / ( 273 - 210 )

= 710 / 63 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ .

= 11.27 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ .

entropy of fusion = 11.27 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ .

Are points A, B, and C collinear? How do you know?
r-ruslan [8.4K]
In general, three points A, B and C are collinear if the sum of the lengths of any two line segments among AB, BC and CA is equal to the length of the remaining line segment, that is, either AB + BC = AC or AC +CB = AB or BA + AC = BC. This is from google so make sure to paraphrase
