Answer: The correct answer is "B" two bonding domains(or bonding pairs) or two non bonding domains(or lone pairs)

Explanation:

Molecular geometry/structure is a three dimensional shape of a molecule. It is basically an arrangement of atoms in a molecule.It is determined by the central atom, its surrounding atoms and electron pairs.According to VSEPR theory, there are 5 basic shapes of a molecule: linear, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, trigonal bipyramidal and octahedral.

A)Four bonding domains and zero non bonding domains: shape is tetrahedral and bond angle is 109.5°

B)Two bonding domains and two non bonding domains(lone pairs): shape is bent and bond angle is 104.5°

C)Three bonding domains and one non bonding domain: shape is trigonal pyramidal and bond angle is 107°

D)Two bonding domain and zero non bonding domain: shape is linear and bond angle is 107°

E)Two bonding domain and one non bonding domain: bent shape and bond angle is 120°

F)Three bonding domains and zero nonbonding domain: shape is trigonal planar and bond angle is 120°

Hence Two bonding domains and two non bonding domains have the smallest bond angle.

<h3>1.<u> Answer;</u></h3>

False

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Bases have some of the following properties;

  • They have a bitter taste
  • They have a slimy, or soapy feel on fingers
  • Most bases react with acids and precipitate salts.
  • Strong bases may react violently with acids.
  • Bases turn red litmus paper blue

<h3>2. <u>Answer;</u></h3>

An acid

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • When acids are dissolved in water, the concentration of the acid decreases and it becomes dilute.
  • It dissociates in water to give H+ ions or hydrogen ions.
  • All acidic solutions contain more hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions, therefore when added to water it increases the concentration of H+ ions in water, as water is a neutral substance whose concentration of H+ ions is equal to OH-.
