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.

erastova [34]

Answer:

The reaction is exothermic

The temperature of the water bath goes up

Explanation:

An exothermic reaction is one in which energy flows out of the reaction system.

In this case, the system is the reaction vessel while the surrounding is the water bath. We see in the question that 300.1J of heat flows out of the system during the reaction. This is heat lost to the surroundings showing that the reaction is exothermic.

As energy is lost to the surroundings, the temperature of the water bath rises accordingly.

Which compound contains ionic bonds?<br> 1. N₂O<br> 2.Na2o<br> 3. co<br> 4.CO2
Molodets [167]
Answer:
2. Na2O

Reasoning:
Na (soduim) is the only metal out of all the elements in the answer choices, and is bonded with oxygen, a nonmetal, therefore creating an ionic bond.

Which metal in Period 5 is very reactive and has two valence electrons in each atom? rubidium (Rb) strontium (Sr) zirconium (Zr)
vladimir1956 [14]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

           Strontium (Sr)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

                        The condition given in statement is the presence of two valence electron. Hence, first we found the electronic configuration of given atoms as follow;

                       Rubidium                         [Kr] 5s¹

                      Strontium                        [Kr] 5s²

                       Zirconium                         [Kr] 4d² 5s²

                      Silver                                 [Kr] 4d¹⁰ 5s¹

From above configurations it is cleared that only Strontium and Zirconium has two electrons in its valence shell.

We also know that s-block elements are more reactive than transition elements due to less shielding effect in transition elements hence, making it difficult for transition metals to loose electrons as compared to s-block elements. Therefore, we can conclude that Strontium present in s-block with two valence electrons is the correct answer.
