Chemistry

kupik [55]3 years ago

Answer: completely (100%) dissociates, producing a significant amount of H+ and OH- ions in solution, making it conduct electricity well.

Explanation:

A strong acid is one that ionizes or dissociate completely in water to yield its hydrogen ion (H+) as the only positively charged ion.

For example: Hydrochloric acid (HCl) dissociates completely in water to give hydrogen ion and chlorine ion

HCl(aq) --> H+(aq) + Cl-(aq)

A strong base, on the other hand, dissociates completely in water to yield an hydroxyl ion (OH-) as the only negatively charged ion. A good example is Sodium hydroxide NaOH

NaOH (aq) --> Na+(aq) + OH-(aq)

And since mobile and charged ions help transmit electric current, a strong acid or base produces significant amount of H+ and OH- ions that conduct electricity well.

Describe the progress of the formation of an ionic bond in terms of electrons
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. It is a type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions. In ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion.

SeF6 1. Lewis Structure 2. Perspective drawing 3. Number of atoms bonded to central atom 4. Number of non-bonding electron pairs
Anarel [89]

The answer is- SF_{6} is octahedral in electronic and molecular geometry with 6 Fluorine atoms bonded to central atom S.

Lewis structures are the diagrams in which the valence electrons of the atoms of a compound are arranged around the atoms showing the bonding between the atom and the lone pair of electrons existing in the molecule.

Determine the molecular geometry of SF_{6}.

  • Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion theory is commonly known as VSEPR theory and it helps to predict the geometry of molecules.
  • According to this theory, electrons are arranged around the central atom of the molecule in such a way that there is minimum electrostatic repulsion between these electrons.
  • Now, calculate the total number of valence electrons in SF_{6}.

Valence\ electrons\ in\ SF_{6}= Valence\ electrons\ in\ S +\ 6(Valence\ electrons\ in\ F)

Valence electrons of S = 6

Valence electrons of F = 7

Thus, the valence electrons in SF_{6} are-

Valence\ number\ of\ electrons\ in\ SF_{6} = (6) + 6(7) = 48\ electrons.

  • The Lewis structure of SF_{6} is - (Image attached).
  • In the structure, the number of atoms bonded to central atom (S) = 6.
  • Number of non-bonding electron pairs on the central atom = 0 (as all the valence electrons are bonded to F).
  • Electronic geometry in case of 6 bond pairs is octahedral.
  • Molecular geometry us also octahedral with bond angles 90°.
  • Central atom is sp3d2 hybridised.
  • SF_{6} is a non-polar molecule.

Match each item with the correct statement below.
V125BC [204]

1. LDFs

2. Intermolecular Forces

3. Intramolecular Forces

4. Linear

5. Tetrahedral

Edit: I'm new to this site and idk how to use it properly. I'm not sure about 2 and 3 currently because these forces are between molecules as well so INTERmolecular would be used twice (?)
