Answer:

(C) bent 109

(2) XY_5Z

Explanation:

The number of bond pairs = 2

Number of lone pairs = 2

The general formula is - XY_2Z_2

According to VSEPR theory, the atoms will form a geometry in such a way that there is minimum repulsion and maximum stability.  

The central atom has 2 bond pairs and 2 lone pairs. Hybridization is sp³. The geometry is bent shape which has an angle of approximately 105.5°. It original has angle of 109.5° but due to lone pair repulsion, it reduces.

Answer - (C) bent 109

Square pyramidal possibility:- (2) XY_5Z

The central atom has 5 bond pairs and 1 lone pair. Hybridization is sp³d. The geometry is square pyramidal in which the equatorial bonds has an angle of 120° and axial bond has an angle of 90°.

Calculate the ionization constant for the following acids or bases from the ionization constant of its conjugate base or conjuga
suter [353]

Answer:

7.41 × 10⁻⁵

Explanation:

Let's consider the basic dissociation reaction of trimethylamine (CH₃)N).

(CH₃)N + H₂O = (CH₃)NH⁺ + OH⁻

According to Brönsted-Lowry, in this reaction (CH₃)N is a base and (CH₃)NH⁺ is its conjugate acid. The pKb for (CH₃)N is 9.87. We can calculate the pKa of (CH₃)NH⁺ using the following expression.

pKa + pKb = 14

pKa = 14 - pKb = 14 - 9.87 = 4.13

Then, we can calculate the acid dissociation constant for (CH₃)NH⁺ using the following expression.

pKa = -log Ka

Ka = antilog - pKa = antilog -4.13 = 7.41 × 10⁻⁵

The addition of hydrochloric acid to a silver nitrate solution precipitates silver chloride according to the reaction:
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Enthalpy change for the reaction is -67716 J/mol.

Explanation:

Number of moles of AgNO_{3} in 50.0 mL of 0.100 M of AgNO_{3}

= Number of moles of HCl in 50.0 mL of 0.100 M of HCl

= \frac{0.100}{1000}\times 50.0 moles

= 0.00500 moles

According to balanced equation, 1 mol of AgNO_{3} reacts with 1 mol of HCl to form 1 mol of AgCl.

So, 0.00500 moles of AgNO_{3} react with 0.00500 moles of HCl to form 0.00500 moles of AgCl

Total volume of solution = (50.0+50.0) mL = 100.0 mL

So, mass of solution = (100.0\times 1.00) g = 100 g

Enthalpy change for the reaction = -(heat released during reaction)/(number of moles of AgCl formed)

= \frac{-m_{solution}\times C_{solution}\times \Delta T_{solution}}{0.00500mol}

= \frac{-100g\times 4.18\frac{J}{g.^{0}\textrm{C}}\times [24.21-23.40]^{0}\textrm{C}}{0.00500mol}

= -67716 J/mol

[m = mass, c = specific heat capacity, \Delta T = change in temperature and negative sign is included as it is an exothermic reaction]
