How many lobes does a single sp3 hybrid orbital have?

Chemistry

Two lobes.

The shape of four sp3 hybrid orbitals is part s and part p-each has two lobes but one lobe is much bigger (which is the lobe used for bonding)

sesenic [268]

Answer: A) Nonmetal carbon shares valence electrons with each nonmetal chlorine forming four covalent bonds.

Explanation: Covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons between atoms.

Ionic bond is formed by transfer of electrons between atoms.

Carbon with atomic no 6 and has configuration of 1s^22s^22p^2. Carbon has 4 valence electrons. It can only share electrons as it is difficult to gain or lose 4 electrons to complete it's octet.

Chlorine with atomic no 17 has configuration of 1s^22s^22p^3s^23p^5. It has 7 valence electrons and need one electron to complete its octet.

Thus carbon will share 4 electrons, one each with four chlorine atoms to form carbon tetra chloride.

HELP NOW!!!!!! When you put water into a hot metal pan of equal mass, why does the pan cool down more than the water heats up?
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Because the specific heat of the metal is less than the specific heat of water.

Explanation:

Hello, happy to help you today!

In this case, we need to analyze a property called "specific heat" which accounts for how much energy is required to increase or decrease the temperature of 1 g of the substance by 1 °C.

In this case, since the specific heat of water is about 4.184 J/g°C and the specific heat of metals in general is greater than zero, of course, but less than one, we can infer that for the same amount of energy, when they are in contact, more grams of metal will be cooled down to those of water heated up, because the specific heat of the metal is less than the specific heat of water.

Best regards!.
