The Lewis structure of hypochlorous acid has oxygen (O) with single bonds between hydrogen and chlorine. In the Lewis structure, we see that hypochlorous acid has 14 valence electrons. Four are used as bonding electrons, and the remaining 10 are nonbonding electrons on oxygen and chlorine.
The question is missing the choices and these are CHCl3, CF4, CS2 or Br2.A polar molecule is one in which the atoms are organized such that one end of the molecule has a positive charge and the conflicting end has the opposite or negative charge. So in the given choices above, the most polar one CHCl3 this actually the only polar one in the choices. The explanation behind this is it has the same shape as CCl4 molecule, but one of the Chlorine atoms has been substituted by a Hydrogen atom. We know that Hydrogen has a weaker electronegativity in contrast to Chlorine, so electron density along the h-c bond is dragged away from the Hydrogen and in the direction of the ccl3 fragment, resulting in a polar molecule.

Answer:</h3>
The root mean square speeds of O₂ and UF₆ is 513m/s and 155 m/s respectively.
<h3>
Solution and Explanation:</h3>
- To find how fast molecules or particles of gases move at a particular temperature, the root mean square speed is calculated.
- Root mean square speed of a gas is calculated by using the formula;

Where R is the molar gas constant, T is the temperature and M is the molar mass of gas in Kg.
<h3>Step 1: Root mean square speed from O₂</h3>
Molar mass of Oxygen is 32.0 g/mol or 0.032 kg/mol
Temperature = 65 degrees Celsius or 338 K
Molar gas constant = 8.3145 J/k.mol


<h3>
Step 2: Root mean square speed of UF₆ </h3>
The molar mass of UF₆ is 352 g/mol or 0.352 kg/mol


Therefore; the root mean square speeds of O₂ and UF₆ is 513m/s and 155 m/s respectively.

Answer:
H2O < NH3 < CCl4 < BCl3
Explanation:
Bond angle of a molecule or an ion can be explained by two concepts which are either by their valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) model or hybridization.
The VSEPR model determines the total number of electron pairs surrounding the central atom of the species. All the electron pairs will orient themselves in such a way as to minimize the electrostatic repulsions between them. These repulsions hence determine the geometry of the covalent bond angles around the central atom.
Hence; as the number of lone pairs increases from zero to 2 the bond angles diminish progressively.
Hybridization is the mixing and blending of two or more pure atomic orbitals to form two or moe hybrid atomic orbitals which are identical in shape and energy. During the process of formation of these hybrid orbitals, The bonds formed i.e the sigma bond and the pi bond determines the bond angle of such compound.
From the given compounds;
H20 have a bond angle of 104.5°
NH3 have a bond angle of 107°
BCl3 have a bond angle of 120°
CCl4 have a bond angle of 109.5°
thus in an increasing order of bond angle:
H2O < NH3 < CCl4 < BCl3
