Answer:

bent

Explanation:

Let’s take the example of SO₂, here the central S atom has 6 valence electrons. S uses 1 pair of electron to form a double bond with each O atom. So, S in total uses four of its valence electrons to form two double bonds with two O atoms. Now after bond formation two electrons are still left on S, thus S has a lone pair of electron. In the absence of a lone pair of electron on S, SO₂ would have a linear structure, O=S=O. However, the lone pair-bond pair repulsion causes SO₂ to have a bent structure.

Determine the empirical formula. a 3.880g sample contains 0.691g of magnesium , 1.84 g of sulfur , and 1.365 g of oxygen .
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Mg S2 O3

Explanation:

.691 g of Mg  is .284 mole

1.84 g of S    is .5739 mole

1.365 g of O is  .8531 mole      you can see the ratio is ~  1 :2 :3

                                                        Mg S2 O3

How many molecules of oxygen are needed to make 3.5 oxygens of water?​
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

57.6g

Explanation:

So, if in one mole of water, 16 g of oxygen atom is present. Then, in 3.6 moles of water, the mass of oxygen present will be 3.6×16=57.6g. Therefore, the amount of oxygen present in 3.6 g water is option (B)- 57.6 g.

A cube of an unknown metal is 1.25 inches on each side and has a mass of 128.3741 g. What is its' density?
Mademuasel [1]
Hey there!

To find the density of an object, you must use this formula:
Density=Mass/Volume

Knowing that your mass is 128.3741, the only information you need left would be to find the volume of the cube.

Because the side length of the cube is given, you can multiply the length three times in order to find its volume:
1.25*1.25*1.25
=1.953125

Now that you have your volume and mass, divide the mass by the volume to find the density:
128.3741/1.953125
=65.7275392

Therefore, your density would be 65.7275392 grams per inches cubed.

How many hydrogen atoms are in 5.20 mol of ammonium sulfide?
Fofino [41]
1) Molecular formula of ammonium sulfide

(NH4)2 S

2) That means that there are 2*4 = 8 atoms of hydrogen in each molecule of ammoium sulfide, so in 5.20 mol of molecules will be 8 * 5.20 mol = 41.6 moles of atoms of hydrogen

3) To pass to number of atoms multiply by Avogadro's number: 6.022 * 10^23

41.6 moles * 6.022 * 10^23 atoms / mol = 250.5 * 10^23 = 2.50 * 10^25 atoms

Answer: 2.50 * 10^25
