Answer:

PF3 has a trigonal pyramidal molecular geometry.

Explanation:

PF3 has four regions of electron density / electron clouds around the central P atom. The regions of electrons make a tetrahedral arrangement with a bond angle of 109.5°. Only three regions of electrons are bonding and one is non-bonding, so the overall shape is trigonal pyramidal.

Answer: 0.0624 atm

Explanation:-

According to the ideal gas equation:

$PV=nRT$

P = Pressure of the gas = ?

V= Volume of the gas = 45.0 L

T= Temperature of the gas = -10.0°C = 263 K $0^00C=273K$

R= Gas constant = 0.0821 atmL/K mol

n= moles of gas

Moles of gas= $\frac{\text{ given mass}}{\text{ molar mass}}= \frac{19.0g}{146g/mole}=0.130moles$

$P=\frac{nRT}{V}=\frac{0.130\times 0.0821\times 263}{45.0}=0.0624atm$

The pressure of sulfur hexafluoride gas in the reaction vessel after the reaction is 0.0624 atm
