Answer: trigonal bipyramidal

Explanation:

Number of electron pairs = $\frac{1}{2}[V+N-C+A]$

V = number of valence electrons present in central atom

N = number of monovalent atoms bonded to central atom

C = charge of cation

A = charge of anion

$SbCl_5$ :

In the given molecule, antimony is the central atom and there are five chlorine as monovalent atoms.

The number of electron pairs are 5 that means the hybridization will be $sp^3d$ and geometry of the molecule will be trigonal bipyramidal.

nevsk [136]

Answer:

3.02e23

Explanation:

carbon molecular weight = 12 g /mol

1 mol = 6.02e23 atoms

your sample, 6 g / 12 g/mol = 0.5 mol

0.5 x 6.02e23 =

Are these mixtures or pure substance?

Archy [21]

A mixture is a system that is made up of two or more substances which are not combined chemically. A pure substance is a system that only has one substance. The following are classified as:
1.water : pure substance
2.blood : mixture
3.the oceans : mixture
4.iron : pure substance
5.brass : mixture
6.uranium : pure substance
7.wine : mixture
8.leather : mixture
9.table salt (NaCl) : pure substance

Nucleophilicity is a kinetic property. A higher nucleophilicity indicates that the nucleophile will easily donate its electrons

lord [1]

The rate constant (K) is related to activation energy (Ea), frequency factor (A) and temperature (T) in Kelvin by the equation

R = molar gas constant

K = A(e^(-Ea/RT))

Taking natural log of both sides

In K = In A - (Ea/RT)

In K = (-Ea/R)(1/T) + In A

Comparing this to the equation of a straight line; y = mx + c

y = In K, slope, m = (-Ea/R), x = (1/T) and intercept, c = In A

a) From the question, m = (-Ea/R) = -1.10 × (10^4) K

(-Ea/R) = -1.10 × (10^4) = -11000

R = 8.314 J/K.mol

Ea = -11000 × 8.314 = 91454 J/mol = 91.454 KJ/mol

b) c = In A = 33.5

A = e^33.5 = (3.54 × (10^14))/s

c) K = A(e^(-Ea/RT))

A = (3.54 × (10^14))/s, Ea = 91454 J/mol, T = 25°C = 298.15 K, R = 8.314 J/K.mol

K = (3.54 × (10^14))(e^(-91454/(8.314×298.15))) = 0.0336/s

5. A penny weighs about 2.5 g. How many moles of pennies would be required to equal the mass of the moon (7.3x10^24 kg)

schepotkina [342]

5. 1.16 x $10^{26}$ moles moles of pennies would be required to equal the mass of the moon.

6. 12.86 moles of ethanol are in a 750 ml bottle of vodka.

Explanation:

5 .Data given:

mass of penny = 2.5 grams

atomic mass of penny = 62.93 grams/mole

moles present in mass of the moon given as = 7.3 x $10^{24}$ kg

number of moles = $\frac{mass}{atomic mass of 1 mole}$

number of moles = $\frac{2.5}{62.93}$

0.039 moles of penny is present in 2.5 grams

0.039 moles of penny in 2.5 grams of it

so, x moles in 7.3 X $10^{27}$ grams

$\frac{0.039}{2.5} =\frac{x}{7.3 X 10^{27} }$

x = 1.16 x $10^{26}$ moles

so when the mass of the penny given is equal to the mass of moon, number of moles of penny present is 1.1 x $10^{26}$ .

Given:

vodka = 40% ethanol

volume of vodka bottle = 750 ml

moles of ethanol =?

density of ethanol =0.79 g/ml

atomic mass of ethanol = 46.07 grams/mole

so, from the density of ethanol given we can calculate how much ethanol is present in the solution.

density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

density x volume = mass

0.79 x 750 = 592.5 grams

number of moles = $\frac{mass}{atomic mass of 1 mole}$

number of moles of ethanol = $\frac{592.5}{46.07}$

= 12.86 moles of ethanol
