Answer : The structure of XeH_4 will be square-planar.

Explanation :

In the given molecule XeH_4, 'Xe' is the central atom and 'H' is the terminal atom.

Xenon has 8 valence electrons and hydrogen has 1 valence electron. Therefore, the total number of valence electrons are 8 + 4(1) = 12 electrons.

The number of electrons used in Xe-H bonding = 8 electrons

The remaining electrons which are used as lone pair on central atom (Xe) = 12 - 8 = 4 electrons

There are 4 bonding pairs and 2 lone pairs of electrons, they will be arranged in the octahedral arrangement around the central atom with 2 lone pairs of electrons on central atom. The lone pairs are arranged linearly across the central atom. The resulting structure will be square-planar.

The structure of XeH_4 is shown below.

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

1. Rate =k [NO]^{2}[Cl_{2}]

2. k= 0.42 \frac{L^{2}}{mol^{2}*s}

Explanation:

Rate =k [NO]^{m}[Cl_{2}]^{n}

Rate1 = k[0.4]^{m}[0.3]^{n}=0.02\\Rate 2=k [0.8]^{m}[0.3}]^{n}=0.08\\\\\frac{Rate1}{Rate2}=\frac{0.02}{0.08} =\frac{k[0.4]^{m}[0.3]^{n}}{k[0.8]^{m}[0.3]^n}} \\\\\frac{1}{4} =(\frac{1}{2} )^{m},\\m=2

Rate3 =k [0.8]^{m}[0.6]^{n}=0.16\\Rate 2= k[0.8]^{m}[0.3}]^{n}=0.08\\\\\frac{Rate3}{Rate2}=\frac{0.16}{0.08} =\frac{k[0.8]^{m}[0.6]^{n}}{k[0.8]^{m}[0.3]^n}} \\\\\frac{2}{1} =(\frac{2}{1} )^{n},\\n=1

Rate =k [NO]^{2}[Cl_{2}]^{1}

Rate =k [NO]^{2}[Cl_{2}]^{1}\\Rate 1=k [0.4]^{2}[0.3]^{1} =0.02\\k*0.16*0.3=0.02\\k=\frac{0.02}{0.16*0.3}=\frac{1}{8*(\frac{3}{10} )}=\frac{5}{12}  = 0.42 \frac{L^{2}}{mol^{2}*s}

Which of the following would most likely result in an increase in reaction rate? placing the reactants on a hotplate
puteri [66]

Answer:

placing the reactants on a hot plate

Explanation:

If the temperature goes up, the reaction rate will increase. Because the particle will move faster and makes the kinetic energy larger.
