Oxygen dichloride molecule consists  of an oxygen atom and two chlorine atoms. According to the VSEPR theory, the 3-D shape of the compound is bent.

There are 6 valence electrons in the oxygen atom and each chlorine atom has 1 valence electrons. Therefore, there are 8 valence electrons or 4 pairs of valence electrons.

According to VSEPR theory, due repulsion between 4 pairs of valence electrons, bond angle between two O-Cl bonds becomes 110 degrees and the shape of the molecule of the compound becomes bent.

Calculate OH- given H3 O+ = 1.40 *10^-4 M
vova2212 [387]

3.16 X 10^-11 M is the [OH-] concentration when H3O+ = 1.40 *10^-4 M.

Explanation:

data given:

H30+= 1.40 X 10^-4 M\

Henderson Hasslebalch equation to calculate pH=

pH = -log10(H30+)

putting the values in the equation:

pH = -log 10(1.40 X 10^-4 M)

pH = 3.85

pH + pOH =14

pOH = 14 - 3.85

pOH = 10.15

The OH- concentration from the pOH by the equation:

pOH = -log10[OH-]

10.5= -log10[OH-]

[OH-] = 10^-10.5

[OH-]  = 3.16 X 10^-11 is the concentration of OH ions when hydronium ion concentration is 1.40 *10^-4 M.

Do CO2 and h2o have the same geometry
Svetach [21]
No, they do not. Carbon dioxide has a linear geometry because the lone pair and bond pair repulsion cancels out; however, water has a bent structure because only the oxygen atom possesses a lone pair which brings the bonding electron pairs closer.

An FAS calibration curve (absorbance, y-axis vs. FAS in g/mL) gave an equation he regression line of: y-3678(x)+0.056. If an unk
mezya [45]

Answer:

FAS concentration = 1.61*10^-4M

Explanation:

Beer Lambert's law relates the absorbance (A) of a substance to its concentration (c) as:

A = \epsilon lc----(1)

where ε = molar absorption coefficient

l = path length

A plot of 'A' vs 'c' gives a straight line with slope = εl

In addition absorbance (A) is related to % Transmittance (%T) as:

A = 2-log%T----(2)

For the FAS solution, the corresponding calibration fit is given as:

y = 3678(x) + 0.056

This implies that the slope = εl = 3678

It is given that %T = 25.6%

A = 2-log(25.6)=0.592

Based on equation(1):

c = \frac{A}{\epsilon l}=\frac{0.592}{3678}=1.61*10^{-4}M
