VSEPR theory predicts linear geometry of electron groups have what angle around a central atom?

Chemistry
1 answer:
masya89 [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:180°

Explanation:

According to VSEPR theory, if the valence shell of the ceteral atom in a molecule contains only two valence electron pairs, the valence electron pairs will arrange themselves along a straight line, forming a bond angle of 180°

Nikolas, the fire extinguisher, and the skateboard have a combined mass of 50 kg. What force would the fire extinguisher have to
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

Force used by fire extinguisher = 60 N

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of skateboard with fire extinguisher = 50 kg

Acceleration of fire extinguisher = 1.2 m/s²

Find:

Force used by fire extinguisher = ?

Computation:

⇒ Force = Mass × Acceleration

⇒ Force used by fire extinguisher = Mass of skateboard with fire extinguisher × Acceleration of fire extinguisher

⇒ Force used by fire extinguisher = 50 kg × 1.2 m/s²

⇒ Force used by fire extinguisher = 60 N

Aluminum has a density of 2.70 g/mL. Calculate the mass (in grams) of a piece of aluminum having a volume of 264 mL .
gavmur [86]
The formula for density is:

D = m/v

We can use the formula to figure out the mass because we already know two of the three values (we are given the density and volume), so we only have to solve for <em>m. </em>If we plug our given values into the formula, we get:

2.70 = m / 264

Now, all we need to do is solve for <em>m</em>. The goal is to get <em>m</em> on one side of the equation, and all we have to do is multiply each side of the equation by 264:

264 × 2.70 = (m÷264) × 264

264 × 2.70 = m

m = 712.8

The mass of the piece of aluminum is 712.8 grams.

Describe the relationship between the radius of a cation and that of the atom from which forms.
vichka [17]

The radius of the cation is much smaller than the corresponding neutral atom.(b) The radius of an anion is much larger than the corresponding neutral atom.Explanation:The size of the atom or ion is inversely proportional to the nuclear charge experienced by the electrons.(a)The size of the cation is smaller than the size of the corresponding neutral atom. This is because after removal of an electron from the highest principle energy level the nuclear charge experienced by the valence electrons increases resulting in the decrease in size.(b)The size of an anion is larger than the size of the corresponding neutral atom. In an anion, an extra electron is added to the highest principle energy level but the effective nuclear charge pulling the electrons towards the nucleus is still same. The net effective nuclear charge experienced by the electrons present in the outermost shell decrease. Moreover, due to the added electron, the repulsion between the electrons also increases resulting in the increase in size
