Question: Predicting the shape of a molecule is relatively straight forward. A molecule's shape will always be determined by the number of electron pairs around the central atom. The number of electron pair corresponds to the number of atoms that are bound to the central atom of the molecule. For example, water contains two hydrogen atom bound to one atom of oxygen, giving the molecule a linear geometry.
Suppose that the model presented by student 1 is correct. Based on the information provided, what would be the bond angle in a molecule of perchlorate ion.
Answer: Suppose that the model presented by student 1 is correct The (perchlorate ion) will be a tetrahedral shape, O-Cl-O bond angle 109.5 due to four groups of bonding electrons and no lone pairs of electrons.
Answer: A light bulb can be all of the following except option C (a consumer product if it is used to light the office of the board of directors.)
Explanation:
Products are classified as being BUSINESS or CONSUMER products according to the buyer's intended use of the product.
-Consumer products: these are sold goods that are used for personal, family, or household use. The intention of the buyer is for the products to satisfy his personal needs and desires. Example of some of the consumer products include: toothpaste, eatables and clothes.
Business products: products that are not for personal use but for the manufacturing of other goods are called business products.
Therefore a bulb is not serving as a personal use when used to light the office of the board of directors rather it's serving as a business product .
