Carbon dioxide is a nonpolar molecule true of false

Chemistry
1 answer:
denis-greek [22]3 years ago
7 0
This statement is TRUE.

The polarity of the molecule is caused by unequal sharing of the electrons in the covalent bond. Even though the carbon dioxide molecule is made from two different atoms, two oxygen atoms and one carbon atom, the CO2 molecule is non polar because of the structure of the molecule.
The CO2 has a linear, symmetrical structure. This means that the two oxygen atoms with greater electronegativity are symmetrically placed around the carbon molecule. This arrangement of atoms causes a balance in the sharing of the electrons, making the molecule non polar.

Explain why the 4s sublevel fills before the 3d begins to fill as electrons are added.
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer: The energy of the 4-s subshell is lower than the energy of 3-d subshell.

Explanation:

During the filling of electrons in subshells, the lower energy levels are filled before the higher energy levels. Also known as Aufbau principle.

Energy of the sublevel = (n + l)

where : n = Principal quantum number

             l = Azimuthal quantum number(s=0,p=1,d=2,f=3)

Energy of 4-s subshell= (4+0) = 4

Energy of 3-d subshell=(3+2) = 5

Energy of 4-s subshell is lower than the energy of 3-d subshell, that is why 4s orbital is filled before the 3-d subshell.

PLEASE HELP i’ll mark brainliest ( reporting fake answers)
kherson [118]

Delta S reaction= Delta S products- Delta S reactants

don't forget to mulitiply by coefficients

also

here is a really slow way to do it

you know the moles of gas increased

so Delta S is positive

so its B or D

then just do the units digit to see which one match up
