Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

In both cases the central atoms, C in CHCl₃ and O in H₂O, are sp³ hybridized .

Since they are sp³ hybridized we predict an angle  between the  H-C-Cl and H-O-H of 109.5 º ( tetrahedral ), but two of the sp³ orbitals in water are occupied by lone pairs.

These lone pairs do excercise more repulsion ( need more room ) than the bonds oxygen is making with hydrogen.

As a consequence of this repulsion the angles H-O-H are less than the predicted 109.5º in tetrahedra. ( Actually is 104.5 º)

Consider the given acid ionization constants. identify the strongest conjugate base.
WARRIOR [948]
The question is incomplete. Complete question is:
<span>Consider the given acid ionization constants. identify the strongest conjugate base.
</span>HNO2(aq) 4.6×10−4
HCHO2(aq) 1.8×10−4
HClO(aq) 2.9×10−8
HCN(aq) 4.9×10−10
.........................................................................................................................
Correct Answer: option 4: HCN(aq) 4.9×10−10

Reason: 
According to Lowry and Bronsted theory of acid and base. Stronger the acid, weaker will be the conjugate base.

In present case, ionization constant is highest of HCN i.e. 4.9×10^{-10}. This signifies that, it is the strongest acid. Hence, conjugate base associated with this acid (i.e. CN^{-}) is the weakest.

<u>Stoichiometry</u>

  • Using Dimensional Analysis
<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[Given] 1.51 × 10²⁶ atoms Xe

[Solve] moles Xe

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Avogadro's Number

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

  1. [DA] Set up:                                                                                                     \displaystyle 1.51 \cdot 10^{26} \ atoms \ Xe(\frac{1 \ mol \ Xe}{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ atoms \ Xe})
  2. [DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units]:                                                         \displaystyle 250.747 \ mol \ Xe

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rule and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

250.747 mol Xe ≈ 251 mol Xe
