Answer:
1. BF3 This is a trigonal planar molecule; the electron density is drawn into a cloud that circles the Boron, this is made nonpolar by the geometrically equivalent structure of the surrounding electronegative Fluorines.
2. H2O The 2 lone pairs of e- of Oxygen makes the O partially negative, the H’s, partially positive. Polar.
3. NF3 Lone pair on Nitrogen overwhelmed by the 3 incredibly electronegative Fluorines. Polar
4. CH3Br The “Soft Ion” of Bromine is negative; it is electronegative. Polar.
5. SO2 the lone pairs of Oxygen, at approximately 119°-120° angles to one another will form a reasonance structure; there will be more lone pairs about the Oxygen than the Sulfur; the Sulfur will be partially positive compared to the oxygens. Polar.
Characteristics of a Precipitate:
A precipitate is characterized by the following properties:
Appears as a solid species.
Settled down at the bottom of the reaction pot.
Insoluble in the corresponding solvent.
i. When an acid reacts with metal, a salt and hydrogen are produced:
ii. When oxygen and metal react, metal oxide forms also known as rust
iii. metal and water produce hydrogen gas
Answer:
Nonmetals and nonmetals tend to form covalent bonds.
or
P and S
Explanation:
The reaction that has the greatest tendency to be reversed in an spontaneous redox reaction is that whose forward standard reduction potential is the lowest (mos negative) one because that means that the reversed reaction will have the highest (most positive) standard reduction potential.
So, the answer is Cr(3+) + 3e- ---> Cr(s) with Eo = -0.91 V, whose reversed reaction is Cr(s) - 3e- ---> Cr (3+) with Eo = +0.91 V.
Answer: the second option Cr(3+) + 3e- ---> Cr(s) Eo = -0.91 V
