Answer:

BrO2-bent

ClO3−trigonal pyramidal

CH3+trigonal planar

BrF3 T-shaped

XeF2 linear

AsF3. trigonal pyramidal

Explanation:

For BrO2-, there are two shapes possible for any three atom molecule; linear or bent. In this case, starting with 7 electrons around a Br atom and at least two formal bonds it is safe to say that it will be bent because there will have to be an accommodated one lone pair on the central atom Br.

Based on VSEPR Theory the electron clouds on atoms and lone pair of electrons around the central Cl atom will repel each other. As a result they will be pushed apart giving the ClO3- molecule a trigonal pyramidal geometry or shape.

Carbon has 4 valence electrons. But in CH3+, a positive charge makes the number of available electrons 3. Hence carbon forms 3 single bonds with H to form a planar structure with sp2 hybridization.

BrF3 contains three bonded and two nonbonded electron domains, giving a trigonal bipyramidal electron domain geometry and a T shaped molecular geometry. The bond angles are compressed relative to those ones in a perfect trigonal bipyramid due to lone pairs spreading out more in space than bonded pairs.

XeF2 has 22 valence electrons, out of which there are three lone pairs of electrons. Its hybridization is sp3d. According to the VSEPR theory, The molecular geometry of the molecule is linear. The bond angle of F-Xe-F is 180 degrees.

The molecule AsF3 has four electron domains around the central atom. Hence the electron domain geometry is Tetrahedral. As there is one non bonded electron pair, the molecular geometry is thus Trigonal pyramidal.

Weathering of rock and sedimentation ultimately lead to the formation of___
Inga [223]
Weathering of the rock and sedimentation are decomposition processes. Through time, the minerals in the rocks soften due to pressure and heat. So, they crumble down and reduce in terms of size. Once they do, they become sand or part of the soil. So, the answer is A.

A chemical change combining two elements results in?
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

When two distinct elements are chemically combined for example, chemical bonds form between their atoms, the result is called a chemical compound. Most elements on Earth bond with other elements to form chemical compounds, such as sodium and Chloride, which combine to form table salt.

Ions are formed when atoms a) gain or lose protonsb) gain or lose electronsc) gain or lose neutrons d) each of these results in
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

b) Gain or lose electrons

Explanation:

An ion is an electrically charged particle. For an atom to be charged, it must have gained or lost electron in the process and therefore, it becomes an ion.

The loss or gain of electrons is what makes an atom charged and eventually becomes an ion.

A positively charged ion is one that has lost an electron and it is called a cation. In such an ion, the number of electrons are lesser than those of protons. This is why they are cations

A negatively charged ion is one that has gained electrons. They are called anions. In such an ion, the number of electrons are greater than that of protons.
