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

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sphinxa [80]3 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.

Molecular iodine, I2 (g), dissociates into iodine atoms at 545K with a first order rate constant of 0.344 1/s. If you start with
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

0.00915 M of I_2 remain after 5.16 seconds.

Explanation:

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}

Where,  

[A_t] is the concentration at time t

[A_0] is the initial concentration

Given that:

The rate constant, k = 0.344 s⁻¹

Initial concentration [A_0] = 0.054 M

Final concentration [A_t] = ? M

Time = 5.16 s

Applying in the above equation, we get that:-

[A_t]=0.054e^{-0.344\times 5.16}\ M=\frac{1\times \:0.054}{e^{1.77504}}\ M=0.00915\ M

<u>0.00915 M of I_2 remain after 5.16 seconds.</u>

Consider the combustion of octane (C8H18)
sesenic [268]
The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂ --->  16CO₂  + 18H₂O
stoichiometry of octane to CO₂ is 2:16
number of C₈H₁₈ moles reacted - 191.6 g / 114 g/mol = 1.68 mol
when 2 mol of octane reacts it forms 16 mol of CO₂
therefore when 1.68 mol of octane reacts - it forms 16/2 x 1.68 = 13.45 mol of CO₂
number of CO₂ moles formed - 13.45 mol
therefore mass of CO₂ formed - 13.45 mol x 44 g/mol = 591.8 g
 mass of CO₂ formed is 591.8 g

A student can hold her breath for 94 seconds if another student records that the time she can hold her breath is 92 seconds, wha
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:  -2.13%

Explanation:

I will assume that the correct time is 94 seconds, since it is stated as a fact.  The measured time of 92 seconds is -2 seonds from the actual.  That gives a percent error of:

[(Measured-Actual)/Actual] or (-2/94) or -2.13%
