A. Sodium is correct.

Sodium is an alkali metal.
Aluminum is a post-transitional metal- still a metal but it’s character is not as metallic as sodium.
Silicon is a metalloid- it has characteristics from both the metals and the non-metals.
Phosphorous is a non-metal.

Determine the molecular geometry based on the description of bonding and lone pairs of electrons around the central atom. Three
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Three double bonds and no lone pairs of electrons- trigonal planar

Two single bonds and two lone pairs of electrons-bent

Five single bonds and no lone pairs of electrons- trigonal bipyramidal

Three single bonds and one lone pair of electrons- trigonal pyramidal

Two double bonds and no lone pairs of electrons - linear

Four single bonds and no lone pairs of electrons- tetrahedral

Six single bonds and no lone pairs of electrons- octahedral

Explanation:

The valence shell electron pair repulsion theory gives a description of the shape of a molecule based on the number of regions of electron density present on the valence shell of the central atom of the molecule.

The molecules are distorted away from the shape predicted on the basis of the VSEPR by the presence of lone pairs on the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule. In the absence of lone pairs, the shape of a molecule is exactly the shape predicted on the basis of the VSEPR theory.

The pressure of a fixed mass of gas is increased from 100 kPa to 600 kPa at a constant temperature. The new volume of the gas is
Dima020 [189]

Answer: The new volume of the gas is smaller.

Explanation:

Volume and pressure are inversely proportional (as one goes up, one goes down). So as you increase the pressure, you decrease the volume.

Explain how intermolecular attractions between molecules influence the bulk of properties of a material
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

<em><u>Intermolecular forces determine bulk properties, such as the melting points of solids and the boiling points of liquids. Liquids boil when the molecules have enough thermal energy to overcome the intermolecular attractive forces that hold them together, thereby forming bubbles of vapor within the liquid.</u></em>
