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°.

Use bond energies from Table 10.3 in the textbook to estimate the enthalpy change (ΔH) for the following reaction. C2H2(g)+H2(g)
Digiron [165]

Answer: =176.6kJmol^{-1}

Explanation:Bond energy of H-H is 436.4 kJ/mole

Bond energy of  C-H is 414 kJ/mol

Bond energy of C=C is 620 kJ/mol

Bond energy of C≡C is 835 kJ/mol

\Delta H= {\text {sum of bond energies of reactants}}-  {\text {sum of bond energies of products}}

\Delta H= {1B.E(C≡C)+2B.E(C-H) +1B.E(H-H)} - {1B.E(C=C)+4B.E(C-H)}

\Delta H= {1B.E(835kJmole^{-1})+2B.E(414kJmole^{-1}) +1B.E(436.4kJmole^{-1})} -  {1B.E(620kJmole^{-1})+4B.E(414kjmole^{-1})}

=176.6kJmol^{-1}
