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.

Consider four different samples: aqueous LiBr , molten LiBr , aqueous AgBr , and molten AgBr . Current run through each sample p
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

a) Aqueous LiBr = Hydrogen Gas

b) Aqueous AgBr = solid Ag

c) Molten LiBr = solid Li

c) Molten AgBr = Solid Ag

Explanation:

a) Aqueous LiBr

This sample produces Hydrogen gas, because the H+ (conteined in the water) has a reduction potential higher than the Li+ from the salt. Therefore the hydrogen cation will reduce instead of the lithium one and form the gas.

b) Aqueous AgBr

This sample produces Solid Ag, because the Ag+ has a reduction potential higher than the H+ from the water. Therefore the silver cation will reduce instead of the hydrogen one and form the solid.

c) Molten LiBr

In a molten binary salt like LiBr there is only one cation present in the cathod. In this case the Li+, so it will reduce and form solid Li.  

c) Molten AgBr

The same as the item above: there is only one cation present in the cathod. In this case the Ag+, so it will reduce and form solid Ag.

the equilibrium concentration of hydroxide ion in a saturated iron(ii) hydroxide solution is 1.2 x 10^-5 M at a certain temperat
Anit [1.1K]

From the calculation as shpwn in the procedure below, the equilibrium constant of the substance is 6.9 * 10^-15.

<h3>What is equilibrium constant?</h3>

The equilibrium constant for the solubility of aa solid in solution is called the solubility product Ksp. The Ksp shows the extent to which a solid is dissolved in solution.

Given that;

Fe(OH)2 ⇄Fe^2+ + 2(OH)^-

Ksp = s(2s)^2

We have s as 1.2 x 10^-5 M

So

Ksp = 4s^3

Ksp = 4( 1.2 x 10^-5 )^3

Ksp = 6.9 * 10^-15

Consider the balanced equation below.
Bumek [7]

Answer : The correct option is, (2) 8 mole of hydrogen will react with 1 mole of sulfur.

Explanation :

The balanced chemical equation is,

8H_2+S_8\rightarrow 8H_2S

By the stoichiometry we conclude that, 8 moles of hydrogen react with 1 mole of sulfur to give 8 moles of hydrogen sulfide.

Hence, the correct options is, (2) 8 mole of hydrogen will react with 1 mole of sulfur.
