<span>Germane is the chemical compound with the formula GeH₄, and the germanium analogue of methane. It is the simplest germanium hydride and one of the most useful compounds of germanium.


</span>In chemistry, sigma bonds (σ bonds) are the strongest type of covalent chemical bond. They are formed by head-on overlapping between atomic orbitals. Sigma<span> bonding is most simply defined for diatomic molecules using the language and tools of symmetry groups.

Answer:

Electron geometry: tetrahedral, sp3 hybridized.

Explanation:

Hello,

Since four atoms of hydrogen are surrounding the germanium in this case, a sp3 hybrization is making up the sigma bons for this molecular compound. The germanium atom can use its singly occupied p-type orbitals, to form two covalent bonds with two hydrogen atoms, and use the s and the other p to form the other two covalent bonds with the remaining hydrogens.

Best regards.

If the half life of iridium-182 is 15 years, how much of a 3 gram sample is left after 2 half-lives?
padilas [110]

Answer:

D. 0.75 grams

Explanation:

The data given on the iridium 182 are;

The half life of the iridium 182, t_{(1/2)} = 15 years

The mass of the sample of iridium, N₀ = 3 grams

The amount left, N(t) after two half lives is given as follows;

N(t) = N_0 \left (\dfrac{1}{2} \right )^{\dfrac{t}{t_{1/2}} }

For two half lives, t = 2 × t_{(1/2)}

∴ t = 2 × 15 = 30

\dfrac{t}{t_{(1/2)}} = \dfrac{30}{15} = 2

\therefore N(t) = 3 \times\left (\dfrac{1}{2} \right )^2 = 0.75

∴ The amount left, N(t) = 0.75 grams

A lake has been infected by some type of new algae that is unknown. Every single day the amount of surface area that the algae t
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

It takes 86 days take to cover half of the lake

Explanation:

In the day #1, the amount of the algae is X,

In the day #2 is 2X

In the day #3 is 2*2*X = X*2²

...

In the day #n the amount of the algae is X*2^(n-1)

Assuming X = 1m³. In the day 87, the area infected was:

1m³*2^(87-1)

7.74x10²⁵m³ is the total area of the lake

the half of this amount is 3.87x10²⁵m³

The time transcurred is:

3.87x10²⁵m³ = 1m³*2^(n-1)

Multiplying for 5 in each side:

ln (3.87x10²⁵) = ln (2^(n-1))

58.9175 = n-1 * 0.6931

85 = n-1

86 = n

<h3>It takes 86 days take to cover half of the lake</h3>
