Is the following compound symmetrical going across?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nataliya [291]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

A molecule has a center of symmetry when, for any atom in the molecule, an identical atom exists diametrically opposite this center an equal distance from it(Wikipedia).

A center of symmetry is said to exist in a molecule when reflection of all parts of the molecule through the center of symmetry produces an indistinguishable configuration(Housecroeft and Sharpe,2012)

Obviously, the Cl2 molecule has a center of symmetry, hence it is symmetrical. Reflection of the molecules through its center of symmetry produces an indistinguishable configuration.

What do you notice about the distance between the terrestrial planets compared with the spacing between the gas giants
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

The spacing between the terrestrial planets is less than that between the gas planets.

Explanation:

Since the terrestrial planets which are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars have a distance of 0.4 AU, 0.7 A.U, 1.0 AU and 1.5 A.U respectively from while the gas planets which are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune have a distance of 5.2 AU, 9.6 AU, 19.6 AU and 30 AU respectively from the sun, we can see that the spacing between the terrestrial planets is much smaller than the spacing between the gas planets.

For example, the spacing between Mercury and Venus is 0.7 AU - 0.4 AU = 0.3 AU while that between Earth and Venus is 1.0 AU - 0.7 AU = 0.3 AU.

Also, the spacing between Earth and Mars is 1.5 AU - 1.0 AU = 0.5 AU.

Also too, the spacing between the gas planets is shown below  the spacing between Jupiter and Saturn is 9.6 AU - 5.2 AU = 4.4 AU while that between Uranus and Saturn is 19.6 AU - 9.6 AU = 10.0 AU.

Also, the spacing between Neptune and Uranus is 30 AU - 19.6 AU = 10.4 AU.

<u>Thus, we can see that the spacing between the terrestrial planets is less than that between the gas planets.</u>

Note that AU means astronomical unit and 1 AU is the distance between the Earth and the Sun. 1 AU = 1.50 × 10⁸ km

Enter the net ionic equation representing aqueous acetic acid neutralized by aqueous barium hydroxide.
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Data

Aqueous acetic acid

Aqueous barium hydroxide

Formula

Acetic acid    CH₃CH₂COOH

Barium hydroxide   Ba(OH)₂

Neutralization reaction

        CH₃CH₂COOH    +    Ba(OH)₂      ⇒  Ba( CH₃CH₂COO)₂ + H₂O

                                                                    Barium acetate + H₂O

Barium acetate =  Ba( CH₃CH₂COO)₂ = Ba(C₃H₅O₂)₂
