It is part of oceans, air, rocks, soil and all living things. Carbon doesn't stay in one place. It is always on the move! In the atmosphere, carbon is attached to oxygen in a gas called carbon dioxide.
Hope this helps.
A. Chocolate syrup dissolve in milk because the milk is changing
About 4. the weight of He is about 4 amus and the weight of O is about 16 amus, so you would need 4 He atoms to get close to the same mass as an O atom. i hope this helps
Answer:
shorter
longer
Explanation:
The carbon-carbon bond length in ethylene is <u>shorter</u> than the carbon-carbon bond length in ethane, and the HCH bond angle in ethylene is <u>longer</u> the HCH bond angle in ethane.
The objective of this question is to let us understand the concept of Bond Length and Bond angle among the unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbons (i.e alkanes, alkenes and alkynes).
The variation in bond angles of unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbons can be explained by two concepts; The valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) model and hybridization.
The VSEPR model determines the total number of electron pairs surrounding the central atom of a species. The total number of electron pairs consist of the bond pairs and lone pairs. All the electron pairs( lie charge ) will then orient themselves in such a way to minimize the electrostatic repulsion between them.
As the number of the lone pairs increases from zero to 2 ; the bond angles diminish progressively.
However;
Hybridization is the mixing or blending of two or more pure atomic orbitals (s,p and d) to form two or more hybrid atomic orbitals that are identical in shape and energy . e.g sp, sp² , sp³ hybrid orbitals etc .
The shape of the geometry of this compound hence determines their bond angle.
The shape of the geometry of ethane is tetrahedral which is 109.5° in bond angle while that of ethylene is trigonal planar which is 120°.
This is why the HCH bond angle in ethylene is longer the HCH bond angle in ethane .
