Answer:oxygen is the central atom in water,it has two lone pairs of electrons, the bond angle is 104.27° The ideal H-O-H bond angle ought to have been 109.28°

Explanation:

The presence of lone pairs causes slight distortion in the bond angles of molecules. This distortion increases with the number of lone pairs present. Water has two lone pairs hence a greater distortion compared to ammonia.

The number of protons present in ATOM 1 is______
Ira Lisetskai [31]
Three protons and three electrons. The protons are the plus signs because protons are positively charged, and the electrons are the minus signs because electrons are negatively charged. Also, the neutrons are the circles. Neutrons are negatively charged

Anything in red is the question
solmaris [256]

Answer:

<em />

  • <em>19. C₂H₂, HF, and H₂O₂ are molecular compounds</em>

<em />

  • <em>20. The formula is CuSO₄. 5H₂O</em>

Explanation:

<u><em>Question 19.</em></u>

The three the chemical formulae in red, C₂H₂, HF, and H₂O₂, represent compounds because a compound is the chemical union of two or more atoms of different kind.

The chemical union is done either by ionic bonds or covalent bonds.

C, H, F, and O are all non-metal elements. Non-metals combine each other through covalent bonds, which is the bond in which electrons are shared to complete the valence shell. Ionic bonds are formed by the electrostatic atraction between ions of different charge and is typical of the bond between a metal and a non-metal.

Thus, all the bonds are covalent and the compounds are molecular compounds.

<em></em>

<u><em>Question 20. </em></u>

<em></em>

You can determine the chemical formula using the molar masses of both Copper(II) sulfate and water.

  • Molar mass of copper(II) sulfate: 159.609 g/mol
  • Molar mass of water: 18.015 g/mol

Call n the number of water molecules in the molecular formula:

  • CuSO₄ . nH₂O

The ratio of water to copper(II) sulfate is:

  • n × molar mass of water / molar mass of the compound
  • n × 18.015 / (n × 18.015 + 159.609) = 36%
  • 18.015n = 0.36(18.015n + 159.609)
  • 18.015n = 6.4854n + 57.45924
  • 11.5296n = 57.45924
  • n = 4.9836 ≈ 5

Therefore, the formula of the hydrate contains 5 molecules of water and it is CuSO₄.5H₂O.

What rules should you follow when multiplying and dividing? Check all that apply.
xeze [42]

Answer:

exponents

Explanation:

The exponents in scientific notation should be added when multiplying, and subtracted when dividing. The exponents need to be the same so the leading numbers can be multiplied or divided. The result has the same number of decimal places as the least precise number.
