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.

Please Which one??? is it???
Tatiana [17]
The 1st one. Fertilizers are like food for plants, and that's what an algae is, sorta. Trout's don't eat algae and if there's too much algae around, it gets dirty and they eventually die because of the amount of bacteria in the algae. It's the same thing if you have a fish tank.

The weights of all elements are always compared to oxygen.
marishachu [46]

Answer:

The weights of all elements are always compared to the Carbon-12.

Explanation:

The weights of all elements are always compared to the Carbon-12 because the mass of carbon is 12 which is the exactly the sum of protons and neutrons.  

Oxygen was also considered the standard for some time but later this stander was rejected because in natural O¹⁷ and O¹⁸ were also present and this create the two different atomic mass tables.

AMU:

Atomic mass unit is define as the 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12.

C12 has six neutron and six protons in the nucleus.

This unit is used to express the masses of atoms. We know that masses of atoms are very small and we do not have any such type of balance that can measure very small quantity. So that is way we use this scale to measure small quantity. For example, according to this scale

relative atomic mass of hydrogen is 1.008 amu

relative atomic mass of oxygen is 15.999 amu

relative atomic mass of uranium is 238.0289 amu

relative atomic mass of chlorine is 35.453 amu

Helppppppp! why should i use spr??
Viktor [21]

SPR can be used in order to do real time monitoring and to evaluate the advancement of compounds.

<h3>Why should we use SPR?</h3>

SPR provide information to evaluate whether or not compounds should advance to the next stage of investigation. It also provides real-time monitoring.

So we can conclude that SPR can be used in order to do real time monitoring and to evaluate the advancement of compounds.

in the chemical equation HCI+CaCO3 which element cannot be apart of the products a carbon b chlorine c nitrogen d oxygen​
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Nitrogen

Explanation:

The element nitrogen cannot be a product in the given reaction.

  The reaction is;

    HCl  + CaCO₃

According to the law of conservation of matter, "matter is neither created nor destroyed in the cause of a chemical reaction".

The law suggests that, in a chemical reaction, we end up with the same species we started with. Although due to rearrangement of bonds,  new compounds can form;

 

Starting atoms

     H

     Cl

     Ca

      O

These species will also be found in the product.
