Explanation:
Formula to calculate hybridization is as follows.
Hybridization = ![\frac{1}{2}[V+N-C+A]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5BV%2BN-C%2BA%5D)
where,
V = number of valence electrons present in central atom
N = number of monovalent atoms bonded to central atom
C = charge of cation
A = charge of anion
So, hybridization of 
is as follows.
Hybridization = ![\frac{1}{2}[V + N - C + A]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5BV%20%2B%20N%20-%20C%20%2B%20A%5D)
= ![\frac{1}{2}[2 + 2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5B2%20%2B%202%5D)
= 2
Hybridization of is sp. Therefore, is a linear molecule. There will be only two electron groups through which Be is attached.
Similarly, hybridization of 
is calculated as follows.
Hybridization =
= ![\frac{1}{2}[8 + 2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5B8%20%2B%202%5D)
= 5
Therefore, hybridization of is ![sp^{3}d. Therefore, [tex]XeF_{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=sp%5E%7B3%7Dd.%20Therefore%2C%20%5Btex%5DXeF_%7B2%7D)
is also a linear molecule. Though there are three lone pair of electrons present on a xenon atom and it is further attached with fluorine atoms through two electron pairs. Hence, there are in total five electron groups.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options is the correct examples of linear molecules for five electron groups.
Answer:
(II) only correctly rank the bonds in terms of increasing polarity.
Explanation:
Bond polarity is proportional to difference in electronegativity between bonded atoms.
Atoms Electronegativity Bond Electronegativity difference
Cl 3.0 Cl-F 1.0
Br 2.8 Br-Cl 0.2
F 4.0 Cl-Cl 0
H 2.1 H-C 0.4
C 2.5 H-N 0.9
N 3.0 H-O 1.4
O 3.5 Br-F 1.2
I 2.7 I-F 1.3
Si 1.9 Cl-F 1.0
P 2.2 Si-Cl 1.1
Si-P 0.3
Si-C 0.6
Si-F 2.1
So, clearly, order of increasing polarity : O-H > N-H > C-H
So, (II) only correctly rank the bonds in terms of increasing polarity
Answer:
the bowling ball will move fastest
Explanation:
because it is heaviest
Answer:
d. Because those chemicals are easily made when CO2 reacts with water, forming H2CO3 (via carbonic anhydrase
