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.

Element at Extreme Left In Periodic Table:
                                                                   The elements of Group I-A (1) are present at extreme left of the periodic table. They are called as Alkali Metals. Alkali Metals are strong metals. These elements can easily loose their valence electron. The valence shell electronic configuration of these elements is,

                                                     ns¹

where n is principle quantum number, which shows main energy level or shell. These metals can gain Noble gas configuration (stable configuration) either by loosing one electron or by gaining seven or more electrons. As it is quite reasonable to loose one electron instead of gaining seven or more electrons so these element easily loose one electron to gain noble as configuration. The Metallic character decreases along the period from left to right. So Group II-A (2) are second most metallic elements and so on. These metals at extreme left mainly exist in solid form.

Element at Extreme Right In Periodic Table:
                                                                     Elements present at extreme right of the periodic table lacks the properties of metallic character and act as non-Metals. They have almost complete outermost shell or have the deficiency of one or two electrons. They are not as hard as metallic elements and they exist with complete octet like in Noble gases, or deficient with one electron (Halogens) or two electrons (oxygen group). These elements tend to gain or accept electron if their valence shell is deficient with required number of elements. Like the valence electronic configuration of Halogens is,

                                                   ns², np⁵

So, Halogens readily accept one electron and attain noble gas configuration. Elements at extreme left exist mainly in gas phase.

An object has a weight of 5.10 Newtons (N) at sea level, where the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2.
RUDIKE [14]
Well, you could get the mass as m=\frac{G_0}{g_0} ad then g_1=\frac{G_1}{m}, where G_0 is the sea level weight, g_0 the sea level accel., g_1 the accel. above while G_1 the weight above.
