4 0

The electronic geometry for the carbonate ion, in CO₃²⁻ is trigonal planar, and molecular geometry will be trigonal planar.

The electronic geometry = Total number of atoms + lone pair around the central atom

= 3 atoms + 0 lone pair

= sp₂ (trigonal planar)

The molecular geometry = As there is no lone pair its geometry will be trigonal planar.

To what volume must 175 L of air at 1.0 atm be compressed to yield a pressure of 5.2 atm? (You can assume constant temperature.
Elena L [17]
Using the ideal gas law, for a constant temperature, pV = constant (also known as Boyle's Law)
(1 atm)(175 L) = (5.2 atm)(V) = constant
V = 33.7 L

Assume that the rate law for a generic chemical reaction is rate = [a][b]3 . what is the reaction order in a, the reaction order
SIZIF [17.4K]
If the reaction is
     X + Y → Products

Then the rate is
     R = k[X]ᵃ [Y]ᵇ

Where,
R = the rate of the reaction (mol L⁻¹ s⁻¹)
k = rate constant
[X] and [Y] = concentrations of the reactants (mol L⁻¹)
a = order of the reaction with respect to X
b = order of the reaction with respect to Y
overall reaction order, n = a + b

according to the given rate expression,
rate = [a][b]³

order of the reaction with respect to 'a' is 1
order of the reaction with respect to 'b' is 3

Overall reaction order = 1 + 3
                                       = 4
