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.

What is the volume of 0.80 grams of o2 gas at stp? (5 points) group of answer choices 0.59 liters 0.56 liters 0.50 liters 0.47 l
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

0.56L

Explanation:

This question requires the Ideal Gas Law:  PV=nRT where P is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume of the gas, n is the number of moles of the gas, R is the Ideal Gas constant, and T is the Temperature of the gas.

Since all of the answer choices are given in units of Liters, it will be convenient to use a value for R that contains "Liters" in its units:R=0.0821\frac{L\cdot atm}{mol\cdot K}

Since the conditions are stated to be STP, we must remember that STP is Standard Temperature Pressure, which means T=273.15K and P=1atm

Lastly, we must calculate the number of moles of O_2(g) there are.  Given 0.80g of O_2(g), we will need to convert with the molar mass of O_2(g).  Noting that there are 2 oxygen atoms, we find the atomic mass of O from the periodic table (16g/mol) and multiply by 2:  32g\text{ }O_2=1mol\text{ }O_2

Thus, \frac{0.80g \text{ }O_2}{1} \frac{1mol\text{ }O_2}{32g\text{ }O_2}=0.25mol\text{ }O_2=n

Isolating V in the Ideal Gas Law:

PV=nRT

V=\frac{nRT}{P}

...substituting the known values, and simplifying...

V=\frac{(0.025 mol \text{ }O_2)(0.0821\frac{L\cdot atm}{mol \cdot K} )(273.15K)}{(1atm)}

V=0.56L \text{ } O_2

So, 0.80g of O_2(g) would occupy 0.56L at STP.

What needed to be present in marine mud to form fossil fuels?
UkoKoshka [18]
When organisms and plants died and sank to the bottom of swamps and oceans, brown soil-like materials called peat are formed. Over millions of years, the peat became covered with sand, clay and other minerals and the peat is converted into layers of sedimentary rocks. After a long time, different type of fossil fuels are formed.
