Lone pair in molecule exert greater solid angle than bond pair. explain?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sphinxa [80]2 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

The valence shell electron pair repulsion model is best used to explain why lone pair in molecules exert greater solid angle than bond pair.

  • The VSEPR model determines the total number of electron pairs surrounding the central atom of the species.

Total electron pair = Bond pair + Lone pair

  • All the electron pairs (like charges) will orient themselves in such a way so as to minimize the electrostatic repulsion between them round an atom.
  • There are three types of repulsion which are bond pair - bond pair, bond pair - lone pair and lone pair - lone pair.
  • The repulsion determines the geometry of the covalent bonds around the central atom.
  • As the number of lone pairs increases, the bond angle diminishes.

Using the Bohr model, determine the energy, in joules, necessary to ionize a ground-state hydrogen atom. Show your calculations.
lord [1]

Answer:

The energy required to ionize the ground-state hydrogen atom is 2.18 x 10^-18 J or 13.6 eV.

Explanation:

To find the energy required to ionize ground-state hydrogen atom first we calculate the wavelength of photon required for this operation.

It is given by Bohr's Theory as:

1/λ = Rh (1/n1² - 1/n2²)

where,

λ = wavelength of photon

n1 = initial state = 1 (ground-state of hydrogen)

n2 = final state = ∞ (since, electron goes far away from atom after ionization)

Rh = Rhydberg's Constant = 1.097 x 10^7 /m

Therefore,

1/λ = (1.097 x 10^7 /m)(1/1² - 1/∞²)

λ = 9.115 x 10^-8 m = 91.15 nm

Now, for energy (E) we know that:

E = hc/λ

where,

h = Plank's Constant = 6.625 x 10^-34 J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

Therefore,

E = (6.625 x 10^-34 J.s)(3 x 10^8 m/s)/(9.115 x 10^-8 m)

<u>E = 2.18 x 10^-18 J</u>

E = (2.18 x 10^-18 J)(1 eV/1.6 x 10^-19 J)

<u>E = 13.6 eV</u>

<h3>Stoichiometric calculations</h3>

From the equation of the reaction, the ratio of AgCl produced to NaCl required is 1:1.

Mole of 46.6 g AgCl produced = 46.6/143.32 = 0.325 moles

Equivalent mole of NaCl = 0.325 moles.

Molarity of 0.325 moles, 3.95 L NaCl = mole/volume = 0.325/3.95 = 0.082 M

How much heat in kj is released by burning 9.5 grams of methane?
tatyana61 [14]
Methane is the compound CH4, and burning it uses the reaction:

CH4 + O2 -> CO2 + H2O, which is rather exothermic. To find the heat released by burning a certain amount of the substance, you should look at the bond enthalpy of each compound, and then compare the values before and after the reaction. In methane, there are 4 C-H bonds, which have bond energy of 416 kj/mol, resulting in a total bond energy of 1664 kj/mol. O2 is 494 kj/mol. Therefore we have a total of 2080 kj/mol on the left side. On the right side we have CO2, which has 2 C=O bonds, each at 799 kj/mol each, resulting in 1598 kj/mol, and H2O has 2 O-H bonds, at 459kj/mol each, resulting in a total of 2516 kj/mol on the right hand side. Now, this may be confusing because the left hand side seems to have less heat than the right, but you just need to remember: making minus breaking, which results in a total change of 436kj/mol heat evolved.

Now it is a simple matter of find the mols of CH4 reacted, using n=m/mr.

n = 9.5/16.042 = 0.592195 mol

Therefore, if we reacted 0.592195 mol, and we produced 436 kj for one mol, the total amount of energy evolved was 436*<span>0.592195 kj, or 258.197 kj.</span>
