Briefly explain in your own words why the bond angle increases as the number of electron groups decreases

Chemistry
1 answer:
tekilochka [14]3 years ago

Answer:

i) The bond angle decreases due to the presence of lone pairs, which causes more repulsion on the bond pairs and as a result, the bond pairs tend to come closer. ii) The repulsion between electron pairs increases with an increase in electronegativity of the central atom and hence the bond angle increases.

Calculate the volume in liters of a 1.60 mol/L sodium nitrate solution that contains of sodium nitrate . Round your answer to si
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

1.5L of NaNO3 must be present

Explanation:

<em>That contains 200g of sodium nitrate. Round to 2 significant digits</em>

To solve this question we need to convert the mass of NaNO3 to moles using its molar mass (85g/mol). With the moles and the molar concentration we can find the volume in liters of the solution:

<em>Moles NaNO3:</em>

200g * (1mol / 85g) = 2.353 moles NaNO3

<em>Volume:</em>

2.353 moles NaNO3 * (1L / 1.60moles) =

<h3>1.5L of NaNO3 must be present</h3>
