For which of the following molecules or ions does the following description apply? "The bonding can be explained using a set of
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

O₃

Explanation:

Consider the molecule CO₂. The carbon is sp hybridized. Carbon has 4 valence electrons and oxygen contributes 2 electrons, 1 for each C=O which indicates that there are 8 electrons around the carbon. Since there are 4 bonds all of them are bond pairs. Each C=O double bond uses 2 bond pairs which are considered as single unit. These two double bond units try to get as far apart as possible making the molecule adopt a linear geometry.

Considering the H₂S molecule both oxygen and sulfur are the in the same group, which means both have a valence of 6. The four valence orbitals of sulfur, one 1 s orbital and three 3p orbitals mix together and forms four sp³ hybridized orbitals. Of the four hybridized orbitals, two overlaps with the 1s orbital of hydrogen forming 2 (S - H) bonds while the other two sp³ orbitals remain on sulfur which has lone pair of electrons. Because of the presence of lone pair, the angle between H-S-H bond is slightly less than the ideal tetrahedral bond angle. Thus, H2S having 2 bonding electron pair and 2 lone pairs has a bent shape.

Considering O₃ and according to the VSEPR theory ozone molecule must have a trigonal – planar geometry. It has a total of 18 valence electrons. From the resonance structure given below it is clear the 4 pairs of electrons exit as bonding pair, sp² or σ- bond and the remaining 10 electrons exit as lone pair. Of the three un- hybridized p orbitals one is anti – bonding and remains empty. In ozone the π bond is distributed between the two bonds, and each receives half a π bond. For this molecule the electron pair geometry is trigonal planar but the molecular geometry is bent. The presence of lone pair exerts slight repulsion on the bonding oxygen atoms and a slight compression of the bond angle greater than 120°.

In carbonate ion, <u>the carbon is sp² hybridized</u>. The carbon has 4 valence electrons and there are four bonds to the oxygen which add another 4 making a total of 8. There are 4 pairs of bonding electrons and no lone pair. Of the 4 bond pairs, 2 pairs are used in forming double bond C=O and 2 bond pairs in forming the two C-O single bonds., Thus CO₃²⁻ adopts a trigonal planar geometry.

Of the two molecules only ozone and carbonate ion, have sp2 hybridized central atoms. In ozone the central atoms have lone pair of electrons the hybridization around is sp². Hence the correct option is O₃

The aqueous hydroxide-promoted reaction of the compound with 2,2-dimethylpropanal (pivalaldehyde) at elevated temperature gives
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

  The mechanism of this reaction i shown on the second uploaded image

The final product of the reaction is shown on the third uploaded image

The hydroxide would be first mixed with the ketone group before the aldehyde is added  

Explanation:

The compound given in the question is 2,2-dimethylpropanal (pivalaldehyde) the structural formula is shown on the first uploaded image

looking at the structurally formula we can see that the hydroxide promoted reaction of this compound would be between the ketone and aldehyde functional group present in this compound in the presence of a hydroxide

Now this process of the reaction is this

    The OH^- is first  made to react with the ketone group

     Then the aldehyde is added

     What happens is that that the OH^- would search for an acidic proton because it is a base and this acidic proton is present in ketone and absent in aldehyde group hence the reason for the first reaction with the ketone group before the aldehyde is added

How can you determine an object mechanical energy
Dafna1 [17]
Objects have mechanical energyif they are in motion and/or if they are at some position relative to a zero potential energy position (for example, a brick held at a vertical position above the ground or zero height position). A moving car possesses mechanical energydue to its motion (kineticenergy).

How many bromine atoms are present in 37.5 g of CH2Br2?
ella [17]
<span>37.8 g CH2Br2 X (1 mol CH2Br2 / 173.83 g) = 4.60X10^-3 mol CH2Br2

4.60X10^-3 mol CH2Br2 X (2 mol Br / 1 mol CH2Br2) X 6.02X10^23 atoms/mol = 5.54X10^21 bromine atoms</span>
