What is the shape of a molecule that has 4 atoms bonded to a central atom

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nataliya [291]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

C. Tetrahedral

Explanation:

Tetrahedral would be the correct choice because the central atom has 4 domains (1 bond counts as 1 domain so 4 bonds =4) and no lone pairs which means it has tetra (which translates to four) domains hence tetrahedral.

The bomb calorimeter in Exercise 102 is filled with 987g water. The initial temperature of the calorimeter contents is 23.32. A
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

25.907°C

Explanation:

In Exercise 102, heat capacity of bomb calorimeter is 6.660 kJ/°C

The heat of combustion of benzoic acid is equivalent to the total heat energy released to the bomb calorimeter and water in the calorimeter.

Thus:

-q_{combust} = q_{water} + q_{calori}

q_{combust} = heat of combustion of benzoic acid

q_{water} = heat energy released to water

q_{calori} = heat energy released to the calorimeter

Therefore,

-m_{combust}*H_{combust} = [m_{water}*c_{water} + C_{calori}]*(T_{f} - T_{i})

1.056*26.42 = [0.987*4.18 + 6.66](T_{f} - 23.32)

27.8995 = [4.12566+6.660](T_{f} - 23.32)

(T_{f} - 23.32) = 27.8995/10.7857 = 2.587

T_{f} = 23.32 + 2.587 = 25.907°C

Where is almost all the mass of an atom​
VashaNatasha [74]
The nucleus!! This is made up of protons and neutrons that each weigh about 1 amu.

Electrons are not found in the nucleus and weigh almost nothing so chemistry in school doesn’t bother with them :)

Write the chemical equation for the reaction of lithium hydroxide (LiOH) with an Arrhenius acid of your choosing. Name and write
Inessa05 [86]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

LiOH(aq) +HCl(aq)→ LiCl(aq) + H₂O(l)

Salt formed is LiCl

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Arrhenius acid refers to a substance that ionizes in water to generate protons or hydrogen ions.
  • Examples of Arrhenius acid include acids such as HCl, H₂SO₄ and HNO₃.
  • A reaction between Lithium hydroxide and an Arrhenius acid such as HCl will yield a salt and water.

That is;

LiOH(aq) +HCl(aq)→ LiCl(aq) + H₂O(l)

  • The salt formed is LiCl
  • The reaction is an example of neutralization reaction.

Kitty [74]
Mass  =  Density  ×   Volume
          =  30.0 mg / mL  ×  375 mL
          =  11250 mg
          =  11.25 g

∴ the total mass of insulin in the bottle is 11.25 g (11250 mg)
