Which type of hybridization leads to a trigonal planar electron domain geometry? s sp sp2 sp3

1 answer:

5 0

Electron domain geometry takes into account the bonds and the free electrons around the atom to predict the geometry.

A tigonal planar geometry means that all the electron domains are in the plane and that they are as far away as they can. That means that there are three electron domains in the plane separated at 120 ° each other.

sp2 means that there are three hybrid electron domains, and the geometrh that leads to the minimal repulsion force is they placed at 120°, which exactly the trigonal planar geometry described up.

Then the answer is sp2

You can check in your book, that sp corresponds to two domains, located linearly, at 180°; and sp3 is four domains with the form of tetrahedral with 109.5° angles.

How many electrons would be transferred in either a voltaic or electrolytic cell that uses the following half reactions

omeli [17]

Answer:

Numbers of electrons transferred in the electrolytic or voltaic cell is 6 electrons.

Explanation:

$Fe^{3+} (aq) + 3 e^-\rightarrow Fe (s) ,E^o = -0.036 V$

$Mg^{2+}(aq) + 2 e^- \rightarrow Mg (s),E^o = -2.37 V$

The substance having highest positive reduction $E^o$ potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction.

Reduction : cathode

$Fe^{3+} (aq) + 3 e^-\rightarrow Fe (s) ,E^o = -0.036 V$ ..[1]

Oxidation: anode

$Mg(s)\rightarrow Mg^{2+}(aq) + 2 e^-,E^o = 2.37 V$ ..[2]

Oxidation reaction occurs at anode and reduction reaction occurs at cathode.

To calculate the $E^o_{cell}$ of the reaction, we use the equation:

$E^o_{cell}=E^o_{red,cathode}-E^o_{red,anode}$

$E^o_{cell}=-0.036V-(-2.37 V)=2.334 V$

The overall reaction will be:

2 × [1] + 3 × [2] :

$2Fe^{3+} (aq) + 3Mg(s)+6e^-\rightarrow 2Fe (s)+3Mg^{2+}(aq)+6e^-$

Electrons on both sides will get cancelled :

$2Fe^{3+} (aq) + 3Mg(s)\rightarrow 2Fe (s)+3Mg^{2+}(aq)$

Numbers of electrons transferred in the electrolytic or voltaic cell is 6 electrons.

Write the balanced equation for the reaction of aqueous Pb ( ClO 3 ) 2 with aqueous NaI . Include phases. chemical equation: Wha

Citrus2011 [14]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of lead iodide produced is 9.22 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molarity of solution, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Molarity of NaI = 0.200 M

Volume of solution = 0.200 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.200M=\frac{\text{Moles of NaI}}{0.200}\\\\\text{Moles of NaI}=(0.200mol/L\times 0.200L)=0.04moles$

The chemical equation for the reaction of NaI and lead chlorate follows:

$Pb(ClO_3)_2(aq.)+2NaI(aq.)\rightarrow PbI_2(s)+2NaClO_3(aq.)$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of NaI reacts produces 1 mole of lead iodide

So, 0.04 moles of NaI will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.04=0.02mol$ of lead iodide

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Molar mass of lead iodide = 461 g/mol

Moles of lead iodide= 0.02 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.02mol=\frac{\text{Mass of lead iodide}}{461g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of lead iodide}=(0.02mol\times 461g/mol)=9.22g$

Hence, the mass of lead iodide produced is 9.22 grams

What is the engine piston displacement in liters of an engine whose displacement is listed as 490 in^3?

marishachu [46]

Answer:

490 in^3 = 8.03 L

Explanation:

Given:

The engine displacement = 490 in^3

= 490 in³

To determine the engine piston displacement in liters L;

(NOTE: Both in^3 (in³) and L are units of volume). Hence, to find the engine piston displacement in liters (L), we will convert in^3 to liters (L)

First, we will convert in³ to cm³

Since 1 in = 2.54 cm

∴ 1 in³ = 16.387 cm³

If 1 in³ = 16.387 cm³

Then 490 in³ = (490 in³ × 16.387 cm³) / 1 in³ = 8029.63 cm³

∴ 490 in³ = 8029.63 cm³

Now will convert cm³ to dm³

(NOTE: 1 L = 1 dm³)

1 cm = 1 × 10⁻² m = 1 × 10⁻¹ dm

∴ 1 cm³ = 1 × 10⁻⁶ m³ = 1 × 10⁻³ dm³

If 1 cm³ = 1 × 10⁻³ dm³

Then, 8029.63 cm³ = (8029.63 cm³ × 1 × 10⁻³ dm³) / 1 cm³ = 8.02963 dm³

≅ 8.03 dm³

∴ 8029.63 cm³ = 8.03 dm³

Hence, 490 in³ = 8029.63 cm³ = 8.03 dm³

Since 1L = 1 dm³

∴ 8.03 dm³ = 8.03 L

Hence, 490 in³ = 8.03 L

While heating up a 25 gram sample of concrete (specific heat = 0.210-cal/g°C), your initial tempărature is room temperature (25°

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Final temperature = 83.1 °C

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of concrete = 25 g

Specific heat capacity = 0.210 cal/g. °C

Initial temperature = 25°C

Calories gain = 305 cal

Final temperature = ?

Solution:

Q = m. c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = T2 - T1

305 cal = 25 g ×0.210 cal/g.°C × T2 - 25°C

305 cal = 5.25cal/°C × T2 - 25°C

305 cal / 5.25cal/°C = T2 - 25°C

58.1 °C = T2 - 25°C

T2 = 58.1 °C + 25°C

T2 = 83.1 °C
