What hybridization is required for central atoms that have a tetrahedral arrangement of electron pairs? A trigo- nal planar arra
Reika [66]

Answer:

sp³;

sp²;

sp;

None;

One;

Two;

They're used to pi bonds.

Explanation:

The central atom in a molecule is generally the one that can make a greater number of bonds. The covalent bonds are made by the sharing of electrons, and, for that, the electron must be alone in the orbital.

To explain this, the hybridization theory was created, which states that, the orbitals are joined to form hybrids ones, and so, by the Hund's law, the electrons are alone in them.

The sigma bonds are done in the hybrids orbitals, and at the pure orbitals, the pi bonds are done. The lone pair of electrons are at a pure orbital. So, to know the hybridization of the central atom, we must know how many sigma bonds it does, and it will be the number of hybrids orbitals (each orbital may have two electrons, thus each bond are done in one orbital).

Double bonds and triple bonds have always only one sigma bond, so the number of sigma bonds is equal to the number of bonds, it's not necessary to know if they are simple, double or triple.

When the arrangement is tetrahedral, the central atom does 4 bonds, so it has 4 sigma bonds, and 4 hybrids orbitals (one of s and three for p), does its hybridization is sp³. Because exists only 3 p orbitals, there are no unhybridized p orbitals in this case.

When the arrangement is trigonal, the central atom does 3 bonds, so it has 3 hybrids orbitals (one of s and two of p), thus the hybridization is sp². So there are one unhybridized p orbitals.

When the arrangement is linear, the central atom does 2 bonds, so it has 2 hybrids orbitals (one of s and one of p), thus the hybridization is sp. So, there are two unhybridized p atoms.

As stated before, the unhybridized p orbitals are used to pi bonds.

20 Points! (2) Which of the following statements are true about a strong base and a weak base at a pH of 11?
marshall27 [118]
The answer to this question is that <span>the strong base will require less HCl to bring the pH to 7 than the weak base. The string base ionizes completely so the [OH-] will be neutralized faster. The weak base has an equilibrium that will constantly shift</span> to compensate for any [OH-] loss, meaning more HCl will be needed to titrate it to lower pH.

Gaseous methane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 9.6 g of methane is
lianna [129]

Answer:

21.6 g

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

  • CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O

First we<u> convert the given masses of both reactants into moles</u>, using their <em>respective molar masses</em>:

  • 9.6 g CH₄ ÷ 16 g/mol = 0.6 mol CH₄
  • 64.9 g O₂ ÷ 32 g/mol = 2.03 mol O₂

0.6 moles of CH₄ would react completely with (2 * 0.6) 1.2 moles of O₂. As there are more O₂ moles than required, O₂ is the reactant in excess and CH₄ is the limiting reactant.

Now we <u>calculate how many moles of water are produced</u>, using the <em>number of moles of the limiting reactant</em>:

  • 0.6 mol CH₄ * \frac{2molH_2O}{1molCH_4} = 1.2 mol H₂O

Finally we<u> convert 1.2 moles of water into grams</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • 1.2 mol * 18 g/mol = 21.6 g

Describe the relationship between the atomic number, mass number, number of protons, number of neutrons.
Charra [1.4K]

Explanation:

Atomic number (Z) = Number of the protons

It means that if the atomic number of C is 6, it implies that the number of protons in carbon is 6 too.

Mass number (M) = Number of the protons +  Number of the neutrons

It means that if the atomic mass of C is 12, it implies that the number of protons and the neutrons in carbon is 12.
