Answer:

A) and D)

Explanation:

A) BF 3 has a trigonal planar shape

TRUE.

BF₃ has three bonding pairs and no lone pairs. According to VSEPR theory, it is an AX₃ molecule with trigonal planar geometry.

B) Molecules with three outer atoms always have a trigonal planar shape.

False

NH₃ has three outer atoms but a trigonal pyramidal shape.  

C) NH₃ has a trigonal planar shape

False.

NH₃ has three bonding pairs and one lone pair. According to VSEPR theory, it is an AX₃E molecule with trigonal bipyramidal geometry.

D) Trigonal planar molecules have three regions of high-electron density around the central atom

TRUE

The regions of high-electron density are the three bonding pairs.

After decaying for 48 hours, 1/16 of the original mass of a radioisotope sample remains unchanged. What is the half life of this
nika2105 [10]

The half life of this radioisotope is 12 hours.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The length of time it requires to break down for an initial half amount or the amount of time taken to transform half of a reactant into product. Half of a particular sample took the time to experience radioactive decay. The time it would take to degrade radioactively into another component or nuclide for half of the atoms of an unstable element or nuclide.

If 1/16 of the sample remains it predicts that there were 4 half-life periods then 16 = 2⁴

4 half-life periods = 48 hours / 4

half-life period = 12 hours.

What is the wavelength of a photon with an energy of 3.50 x 10^-19 J ?
Leokris [45]

Answer:

λ = 5.68×10⁻⁷ m

Explanation:

Given data:

Energy of photon = 3.50 ×10⁻¹⁹ J

Wavelength of photon = ?

Solution:

E = hc/λ

h = planck's constant = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js

c = 3×10⁸ m/s

Now we will put the values in formula.

3.50 ×10⁻¹⁹ J =  6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js × 3×10⁸ m/s/ λ

λ =  6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js × 3×10⁸ m/s / 3.50 ×10⁻¹⁹ J

λ =  19.89×10⁻²⁶ J.m / 3.50 ×10⁻¹⁹ J

λ = 5.68×10⁻⁷ m

1.As you move from left to right across a period,the number of valence electrons
Vitek1552 [10]
<span>1. The number of valence electrons increases as you go from left to right across a period. This is because the number of electrons increases, so another electron will be added to the outer shell.

2. Group 6A elements will have 6 valence elecrons, while Group 2A elements only have 2, therefore Group 6A elements have more valence electrons that Group 2A elements.

3. Fluorine has a smaller atomic size than the other halogens (Cl, Br, I), so its valence electrons are nearer to its nucleus. This means that the attractive forces are stronger, so when another electron (from another atom) draws near the F atom, it is more likely that the electron will be pulled toward the nucleus and react with the F atom</span>.
