Answer is: sp3 hybridization.

Water (H₂O), oxygen difluoride (OF₂) and sulfur(IV) oxide (SO₂) are examples of bent molecules.

Oxygen atom in water molecule has sp3 hybridization. The bond angle between the two hydrogen atoms is approximately 104.45°.

Water is polar because of the bent shape of the molecule.

Consider the reaction 2NO(g) 1 O2(g) ¡ 2NO2(g) Suppose that at a particular moment during the reaction nitric oxide (NO) is reac

<h2>a) The rate at which $NO_2$ is formed is 0.066 M/s</h2><h2>b) The rate at which molecular oxygen $O_2$ is reacting is 0.033 M/s</h2>

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

$2NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2(g)$

The rate in terms of reactants is given as negative as the concentration of reactants is decreasing with time whereas the rate in terms of products is given as positive as the concentration of products is increasing with time.

Rate in terms of disappearance of $NO$ = $-\frac{1d[NO]}{2dt}$ = 0.066 M/s
