What determines a molecules VSEPR shape?

Chemistry

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.

Enter your answer in the provided box. Calculate the number of moles of CrCl, that could be produced from 49.4 g Cr202 according
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

0.4694 moles of CrCl₃

Explanation:

The balanced equation is:

Cr₂O₃(s) + 3CCl₄(l) → 2CrCl₃(s) + 3COCl₂(aq)

The stoichiometry of the equation is how much moles of the substances must react to form the products, and it's represented by the coefficients of the balanced equation. So, 1 mol of Cr₂O₃ must react with 3 moles of CCl₄ to form 2 moles of CrCl₃ and 3 moles of COCl₂.

The stoichiometry calculus must be on a moles basis. The compounds of interest are Cr₂O₃ and CrCl₃. The molar masses of the elements are:

MCr = 52 g/mol

MCl = 35.5 g/mol

MO = 16 g/mol

So, the molar mass of the Cr₂O₃ is = 2x52 + 3x35.5 = 210.5 g/mol.

The number of moles is the mass divided by the molar mass, so:

n = 49.4/210.5 = 0.2347 mol of Cr₂O₃.

For the stoichiometry:

1 mol of Cr₂O₃ ------------------- 2 moles of CrCl₃

0.2347 mol of Cr₂O₃----------- x

By a simple direct three rule:

x = 0.4694 moles of CrCl₃
