In which cases do you expect deviations from the idealized bond angle? PF3 SBr2 CS2 CHCl3

2 answers:

7 0

Answer: CHCl3 and SBr2 and PF3

CHCl3 - should have a bond angle of 109.5 as it is tetrahedral but the bond angle between the CH bond and CCl bonds will be less than 109.5 and the angle between CCl bonds will be more than 109.5. This is because the Cl atoms have electrons around them while the H does not so the Cl atoms repel each other and widen the bond angle.

CS2 will have 180 which is what is expected because there are no lone pairs on the C just like CO2. 

SBr2 should be 104.5 just like in H2O but because the Br atoms have electrons around them they will repel each other more than the H atoms in H2O so the bond angle will be more than 104.5 

PF3 should be 107 just like NH3 but the F atoms have electrons around them they will repel each other more than the H atoms in NH3 so the bond angle will be more than 107.

CHCl3 because there are more than two atoms in this molecule that are different. Hydrogen has a small electron cloud and occupies less space, where Cl has a larger electron cloud and occupies more space, this would make it different than the expected tetrahedron shape.

Which of the following conclusions can be drawn from JJ Thomson's cathode ray experiments?A.) Atoms contain electronsB.) Practic

kari74 [83]

Answer:

A.) Atoms contain electrons

Explanation:

J.J. Thomson conducted an experiment in which he took a gas at low pressure in a discharge tube and applied high voltage current. When he did so, he noticed that there are some particles emitting from cathode going towards the anode. Then he concluded that they are negatively charged particles and coined them electrons.

Hence, out of the options:- A.) Atoms contain electrons is correct.

Create a story and describe the motion (in meters) of an object that has traveled a distance but has no displacement. Need Help

vekshin1

Answer:

One complete revolution around a circular path.

Explanation:

Let us take the case of a car moving in a circular track of radius r metres.

In one revolution, the car covers the length(distance) equal to the perimeter of the circle.

In this case, distance traveled = 2 $\pi$ r metres

But after one complete revolution, the car reaches the same position as it was at the beginning of the motion.

Hence, the initial and final points coincide or the car hasn't changed it's position w.r.t the initial point.

So in this case, the displacement is zero.

Hence, revolution of a car around a circular path is an example of an object traveling a distance but having no displacement.

10. Which best explains why the total mass of the product(s) would be less than the total weight of the

Olegator [25]

Answer:

D. Gases were released to the atmosphere

Explanation:

In accordance to the law of conservation of mass, the total amount of reactants must equate the total amount of products at the end of the reaction because matter can not be lost or created. However, certain changes like gas evolution, formation of precipitate etc. indicates the occurrence of a chemical reaction.

In a chemical reaction, the total mass of the product(s) would be less than the total weight of the reactant(s) because GASES, which constituted part of the mass of the reaction, WERE RELEASED INTO THE ATMOSPHERE. However, if the mass of the gas released can be accounted for, the amount of reactants and products must balance.
