Answer:
5. gains two electrons.
Explanation:
In order to determine the most stable monoatomic ion of oxygen, we need to consider the octet rule: atoms will gain, lose or share electrons to complete their valence shell with 8 electrons.
Oxygen is in the Group 16 in the Periodic Table, so it has 6 valence electrons. Therefore, it will gain two electrons to have the electron configuration of the closest noble gas.
The weighted average atomic mass of Silicon is 28.1
(27.98 x .9223) + (28.98 x .0468) + (29.97 x .0309)
= 25.81 + 1.36 + .93
= 28.1
Answer: 50%
Explanation:
The number of electron pairs are 2 for hybridization to be
and the electronic geometry of the molecule will be linear.
1. percentage of s character in sp hybrid orbital =
2. percentage of s character in
hybrid orbital =
3. percentage of s character in
hybrid orbital =
Thus percentage of s-character in an sp hybrid is 50%.
Answer:
Mg(OH)2(s) + 2HCl(aq) → 2H2O(l) + MgCl2(aq)
Explanation:
The empirical formula of the compound is C. NiF₂.
<em>Step 1</em>. Calculate the <em>moles of each element</em>
The empirical formula is the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound.
The ratio of atoms is the same as the ratio of moles.
So, our job is to calculate the molar ratio of Ni to F.
Moles of Ni = 9.11 g Ni × (1 mol Ni /(58.69 g Ni) = 0.1552 mol Ni
Moles of F = 5.89 g F × (1 mol F/19.00 g F) = 0.3100 mol F
<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the <em>molar ratio</em> of the elements
Divide each number by the smallest number of moles
Ni:F = 0.1552:0.3100 = 1:1.997 ≈ 1:2
<em>Step 3</em>: Write the <em>empirical formula</em>
EF = NiF₂
