What are hybrid orbitals?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ann [662]3 years ago
3 0
Hybrid Orbitals: are used to describe the orbitals in covalently bonded atoms sp,sp2,sp3

You can find the hybridization by adding the number of bonded atoms and the number of lone pairs.

For example in BF3. The central atom (B) is bonded to three atoms. So the hybridization is sp2

In NH3, the central atom (N) is bonded to three atoms and has one lone pair. The hybridization is sp3

How many moles of hexane (C6H14) must burn to form 18.4 mol of carbon dioxide?
avanturin [10]
The combustion reaction of hexane:

2 C6H14 + 19 O2 = 12 CO2 + 14 H2O

2 mol C6H14 ---------> 12 mol CO2
x mol C6H14 ---------> 18.4 mol CO2

12 * x = 18.4 * 2

12 x = 36.8

x = 36.8 / 12

x = 3.067 moles of CO2

hope this helps!.

Consider the following reaction at 298K. Zn2+ (aq) + Co (s) Zn (s) + Co2+ (aq) Which of the following statements are correct? Ch
olasank [31]

Answer:

The reaction is reactant-favored

Explanation:

If we take a look at the reaction equation, Zn2+ (aq) + Co (s) Zn (s) + Co2+ (aq) and consider the reduction potential of the species involved

Zn^2+(aq)/Zn(s)= -0.76

Co^2+(aq)/Co(s)= -0.28

It can easily be seen that the reduction potential of zinc is more negative than that of cobalt. Hence the electrochemical reaction is not spontaneous as written but will greatly favour the reverse reaction.
