What determines a molecules VSEPR shape?

1 answer:

3 0

Using the VSEPR theory, the electron bond pairs and lone pairs on the center atom will help us predict the shape of a molecule. The shape of a molecule is determined by the location of the nuclei and its electrons. The electrons and the nuclei settle into positions that minimize repulsion and maximize attraction.

I believe that it is all of the above.

"A Scientific Hypothesis Must Be "Falsifiable". A scientific hypothesis must be testable, but there is a much stronger requirement that a testable hypothesis must meet before it can really be considered scientific."

I hope this helped, have a nice day!

Answer:

Iron remains = 17.49 mg

Explanation:

Half life of iron -55 = 2.737 years (Source)

$t_{1/2}=\frac {ln\ 2}{k}$

Where, k is rate constant

So,

$k=\frac {ln\ 2}{t_{1/2}}$

$k=\frac {ln\ 2}{2.737}\ year^{-1}$

The rate constant, k = 0.2533 year⁻¹

Time = 2.41 years

$[A_0]$ = 32.2 mg

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

So,

$[A_t]=32.2\times e^{-0.2533\times 2.41}\ mg$

$[A_t]=32.2\times e^{-0.610453}\ mg$

$[A_t]=17.49\ mg$

<u>Iron remains = 17.49 mg</u>

Electrolysis of molten lead bromide is carried out.

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Read Below

Explanation:

Electrolysis is not possible with solid lead (II) bromide. This is because the ions are held in a three-dimensional lattice, unable to move freely to the electrodes. Melting enables the ions to become mobile and to travel to the respective electrodes.

The bulb won't glow when the electrodes are embedded in solid lead bromide. The bulb will glow when the material surrounding the electrodes is molten lead bromide. When an ionic compound is in the molten (liquid) form the positive and negative ions are free to move around.

Hopes this Helps :D
