Answer:
Tetrahedral electron geometry and trigonal pyramidal molecular geometry.
Explanation:
The Lewis structure is shown in Figure 1.
The central N atom has three bonding pairs and one lone pair, for <em>four electron groups</em>.
VSEPR theory predicts a tetrahedral electron geometry with bond angles of 109.5°.
We do not count the lone pair in determining the molecular shape.
The molecular geometry is trigonal pyramidal (see Figure 2).
Answer:
0.55 atm
Explanation:
First of all, we need to calculate the number of moles corresponding to 1.00 g of carbon dioxide. This is given by
where
m = 1.00 g is the mass of the gas
Mm = 44.0 g/mol is the molar mass of the gas
Substituting,
Now we can find the pressure of the gas by using the ideal gas law:
where
p is the gas pressure
V = 1.00 L is the volume
n = 0.0227 mol is the number of moles
R = 0.082 L/(atm K mol) is the gas constant
T = 25.0 C + 273 = 298 K is the temperature of the gas
Solving the formula for p, we find
