Determine the electron geometry, molecular geometry, and idealized bond angles for each molecule. In which cases do you expect d
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

The electron geometry, molecular geometry and idealized bond angles for these molecules respectively are:

a. CF4: tetrahedral, tetrahedral and 109.5 degrees

b. NF3 tetrahedral, trigonal pyramidal and 102.5 degrees

c. OF2 tetrahedral, angular and 103 degrees

d. H2S tetrahedral, angular and 92.1 degrees

Explanation:

The electron geometry considers the bound atoms and unbound electron pairs to determine the geometry. The four molecules have four bound atoms and/or unbound electrons pairs, thus they have a tetrahedral geometry. On the other hand, the molecular geometry only considers the position of bound atoms to determine the geometry.

Between H3O and H2O, H2O has a smaller bond angle due to the two unbound electron pairs. The bond angle decrease as the number of unbound electron pairs increases in every molecule.

CO2 and CCl4 are both nonpolar because of the 3D geometry of the molecule. Each individual bond is polar but both molecules have symmetrical geometry so the dipole bonds are canceled.

CH3F  is a polar molecule because the dipole between the C-H and C-F bonds are differents thus, besides the symmetrical geometry the dipole bonds are not canceled.

In CaCo3 + HCl = CaCl2 + H2O +CO3, how many liters of carbon dioxide gas, measured at STP, can be obtained from 45.0 g of calciu
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

B) 10.1 L

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the given chemical reaction which should be corrected as shown below:

CaCO_3 + HCl \rightarrow CaCl_2 + H_2O +CO_2

Since 45.0g of calcium carbonate are used, the produced moles of carbon dioxide, via stoichiometry, are found to be:

n_{CO_2}=45.0g CaCO_3*\frac{1molCaCO_3}{100gCaCO_3}*\frac{1molCO_2}{1molCaCO_3}=0.45molCO_2

Finally, since STP conditions are referred to a temperature of 273.15K and 1 atm, the volume, by using the ideal gas equation result:

V=\frac{nRT}{P}=\frac{0.45mol*0.082\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*273.15K }{1atm} \\ \\V=10.1L

So the answer is B) 10.1 L.

Best regards.

Anything with mass creates gravity, but the amount of gravity is proportional to the amount of mass.
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Explanation:

The amount of gravity is directly proportional to the amount of mass of the objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects. Gravity is a force that increases the velocity of falling objects - they accelerate.

Of these four liquids, which has the lowest viscosity? options: Pancake syrup at room temperature Motor oil that is in the refri
Artist 52 [7]

Answer: Thus A glass of lemonade at room temperature will have lowest viscosity

Explanation:

Viscosity is defined as the resistance to the flow of a fluid.

The lesser are the inter molecular forces between the particles of a liquid, the lesser will be the viscosity and thus it will flow rapidly. More are the inter molecular forces between the particles of a liquid, the more the viscosity of the liquid and thus it will flow slowly.  

Viscosity decreases with increase in temperature as the forces among particles decrease due to increase in kinetic energy and thus they offer less resistance to flow.

Thus A glass of lemonade at room temperature will have lowest viscosity
