The molecule CO2 is arranged in a linear molecular geometry. TRUE FALSE

Chemistry
1 answer:
antiseptic1488 [7]3 years ago
5 0

I would say true because the Valence Shell Electron Pairs will Repel each other. When they do they are forced to the opposite side of the Carbon atom giving CO2 a linear molecular shape. The CO2 bond angle will be 180 degrees since it has a linear molecular geometry.

sorry if im wrong

What is the pressure of a sample of gas at a volume of .335 L if it occupies 1700 mL at 850 mm Hg?
dangina [55]

Answer:

Pressure = 4313.43mmHg

Explanation:

P1 = ?

V1 = 0.335L

V2 = 1700mL =1700*10^-3L = 1.7L

P2 = 850mmhg

From Boyle's law, the volume of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure provided that temperature remains constant.

P = k / v

K = pv. P1V1 = P2V2 = P3V3 =........=PnVn

P1V1 = P2V2

Solve for P1,

P1 = (P2*V2) / V1

P1 = (850 * 1.7) / 0.335

P1 = 4313.43mmHg

The pressure of the gas was 4313.43mmHg

An ionic bond can be formed when one or more electrons are 1) equally shared by two atoms 2) unequally shared by two atoms 3) tr
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

4) transferred from the valence shell of one atom to the valence shell of another atom

Explanation:

Electrons are located outside of the nucleus which contains the protons and the neutrons.

For bonds to form, valence electrons located in the outermost shell electrons are involved. These are the valence electrons. These outer shell electrons can be shared or transferred between two combining atoms to form stable atoms.

In ionic bonds, the electrons are transferred from one specie to another. The atom that loses the electrons becomes positively charged and the receiving atom becomes negatively charged. This is the crux of ionic bonds.

A 20.00-mL sample of a weak base is titrated with 0.0568 M HCl. At the endpoint, it is found that 17.88 mL of titrant was used.
nata0808 [166]

Answer: 0.0508mL

Explanation: Using the basic formula that states: C acid * V acid = C base * V base. we have:0.568 * 17.88 = 20 * C base.

therefore concentration of the base is 1.0156/20 = 0.0508 mL
