Answer:

We are considering an Allene molecule here, CH2CCH2. To answer your question, NO, they don't have to lie on the same plane. The spatial arrangement between them is that the center carbon that forms these pi bind in the left and right are PERPENDICULAR to each other.

Explanation:

We see here that The terminal carbons are sp2 hybridized, and form three σ-bonds each which means that each terminal carbon has one unhybridized p-orbital. The central carbon atom is sp hybridized, and forms two σ-bonds which means it has two unhybridized p-orbitals. For better understanding, let's call these two orbitals px and py. Summarily, These orbitals are perpendicular to each other

Assume that 25 ml of 0.440M NaCl are added to 25 ml of 0.320M AgNO3.

The balanced chemical equation would be as follows:

<span>NaCl + AgNO3 -> NaNO3 + AgCl

We are given the amounts of the reactants. We need to determine first which one is the limiting reactant. We do as follows:

0.0440 mol/L NaCl (.025 L) = 0.0011 mol NaCl -----> consumed completely and therefore the limiting reactant
0.320 mol/L AgNO3 (0.025 L) = 0.008 mol AgNO3

0.0011 mol NaCl ( 1 mol AgCl / 1 mol NaCl) = 0.0011 AgCl precipitate produced
