What is the hybridization of the central atom in the trichlorostannanide anion?

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

sp²

Explanation:

The trhichlorostannanide anion has molecular formula SnCl₃⁻, Sn is the central atom, which is at the group 14 of the periodic table, so it has 4 valence electrons. It must form 4 bonds to be stable.

In the anion, the tin (Sn) forms 3 bonds, so, it has 1 electron that is isolated. According to the VSEPR theory, the geometry of a molecule depends on the bonded electrons and the lone pairs, because the repulsive force between them will form the angles of the molecule.

Thus, only the bonded electrons will contribute, and because of that, the geometry will be trigonal planar.

To form the bonds, the subshells (s, p, d, f) of the atoms in the bond must interact. But, only isolated electrons can bond, so, to be stable and form the compounds, some atoms have hybrids shells, which are formed by the join of subshells.

The hybridization can be found by the determination of how many bonds are done, or by the geometry. For a trigonal planar geometry, the hybridization is sp², which means that the orbital is formed by one orbital s and two orbitals p.

Cesium has a radius of 272 pm and crystallizes in a body-centered cubic structure. What is the edge length of the unit cell

olchik [2.2K]

Answer: Edge length of the unit cell = 628pm

Explanation: For a body centred cubic structured system, the relationship between the edge length of the unit cell and radius of the atoms in the structure is

Edge length of Unit cell (a) = (4R)/(√3)

R = 272pm = (272 × (10^-12))m = (2.72 × (10^-10))m

a = (4 × (2.72 × (10^-10)))/(√3)

a = (6.28157 × (10^-10))m = 628pm

Zinc metal and aqueous silver nitrate react to give Zn(NO3)2(aq) plus silver metal. When 5.00 g of Zn(s) and solution containing

Fittoniya [83]

Answer : The percent yield is, 83.51 %

Solution : Given,

Mass of Zn = 5.00 g

Mass of $AgNO_3$ = 25.00 g

Molar mass of Zn = 65.38 g/mole

Molar mass of $AgNO_3$ = 168.97 g/mole

Molar mass of Ag = 107.87 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of Zn and $AgNO_3$ .

$\text{ Moles of }Zn=\frac{\text{ Mass of }Zn}{\text{ Molar mass of }Zn}=\frac{5.00g}{65.38g/mole}=0.0765moles$

$\text{ Moles of }AgNO_3=\frac{\text{ Mass of }AgNO_3}{\text{ Molar mass of }AgNO_3}=\frac{25.00g}{168.97g/mole}=0.1479moles$

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$Zn+2AgNO_3\rightarrow Zn(NO_3)_2+2Ag$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 mole of $AgNO_3$ react with 1 mole of $Zn$

So, 0.1479 moles of $AgNO_3$ react with $\frac{0.1479}{2}=0.07395$ moles of $Zn$

From this we conclude that, $Zn$ is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and $AgNO_3$ is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of $Ag$

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 2 mole of $AgNO_3$ react to give 2 mole of $Ag$

So, 0.1479 moles of $AgNO_3$ react to give 0.1479 moles of $Ag$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $Ag$

$\text{ Mass of }Ag=\text{ Moles of }Ag\times \text{ Molar mass of }Ag$

$\text{ Mass of }Ag=(0.1479moles)\times (107.87g/mole)=15.95g$

Theoretical yield of $Ag$ = 15.95 g

Experimental yield of $Ag$ = 13.32 g

Now we have to calculate the percent yield.

$\% \text{ yield}=\frac{\text{ Experimental yield of }Ag}{\text{ Theretical yield of }Ag}\times 100$

$\% \text{ yield}=\frac{13.32g}{15.95g}\times 100=83.51\%$

Therefore, the percent yield is, 83.51 %
