Carbons starting from the left end:

  1. sp²
  2. sp²
  3. sp²
  4. sp
  5. sp

Refer to the sketch attached.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The hybridization of a carbon atom depends on the number of electron domains that it has.

Each chemical bond counts as one single electron domain. This is the case for all chemical bonds: single, double, or triple. Each lone pair also counts as one electron domain. However, lone pairs are seldom seen on carbon atoms.

Each carbon atom has four valence electrons. It can form up to four chemical bonds. As a result, a carbon atom can have up to four electron domains. It has a minimum of two electron domains, with either two double bonds or one single bond and one triple bond.

  • A carbon atom with four electron domains is sp³ hybridized;
  • A carbon atom with three electron domains is sp² hybridized;
  • A carbon atom with two electron domains is sp hybridized.

Starting from the left end (H₂C=CH-) of the molecule:

  • The first carbon has three electron domains: two C-H single bonds and one C=C double bond; It is sp² hybridized.
  • The second carbon has three electron domains: one C-H single bond, one C-C single bond, and one C=C double bond; it is sp² hybridized.
  • The third carbon has three electron domains: two C-C single bonds and one C=O double bond; it is sp² hybridized.
  • The fourth carbon has two electron domains: one C-C single bond and one C≡C triple bond; it is sp hybridized.
  • The fifth carbon has two electron domains: one C-H single bond and one C≡C triple bond; it is sp hybridized.

How many grams of H3PO4 are in 234 mL of a 2.5 M solution of H3PO4?
motikmotik

Answer:

57 grams of H3PO4

Explanation:

M= moles/ liters

convert mL to L

234 mL x 1L/1000mL = 0.234L

Rearrange the Molarity formula to solve for moles.

moles= MxL

moles= 2.5M x 0.234L

moles= 0.585 mol

Use the molar mass of H3PO4 to get to grams

0.585 mol x 97.994 grams/1 mol = 57.326 grams of H3PO4

round to two sig figs for 57 grams

Why is it more accurate to say that the concentration of a solution of acetic acid is 0.01 f rather than 0.01 m?
olasank [31]

A 1 F solution stands 1 formula unit per litre and 0.01 F describes the concentration of solution with no deliberation for the real form of existence of species.

Molarity is defined as the ratio of moles of solute to the volume of solution in litres and it is used to describe formality. For accuracy, it is essential to expressed molarity of each species. In case of acetic acid, the molarity of acetic acid molecules is less than 0.01 M due to dissociation.

Thus, it is more precise to say that the concentration of a solution of acetic acid is 0.01 F instead of 0.01 M.
