Answer:

Sp3

Explanation:

Hydrocarbon can be defined as an organic compound that comprises of hydrogen and carbon only. Some examples of hydrocarbon are methane, butane, ethane, ethene, etc.

Hybridization can be defined as a phenomenon which involves the combination of two or more atomic orbitals to form the same number of hybrid orbitals, with each of the orbitals having the same shape and energy.

In Organic chemistry, ethane is considered to be a tetrahedral carbon and it's Sp3 hybridized.

A tetrahedral carbon typically comprises of four bonds that are 109. 5° apart while a linear carbon atom comprises of two (2) bonds that are 180° apart.

Hence, the molecule of ethane posses a Sp3 hybridization because it has four bonds arrange with a tetrahedral geometry.

Answer:

The sorting is as follows

a. (1)

b. (5 and 6)

c. (1 and 2)

d. (4)

Explanation:

Diffusion is the movement of particles across a membrane from a high concentration region to one with a lower concentration of the diffusing substance

Here we have the correct sorting as follows

a. Diffusion

3. steroid transport into cell

b. Facilitated diffusion

5. movement assisted by proteins

6. glucose transport into cell

c. Both

1. movement to area of lower concentration

2. movement across a membrane

For the overall reaction below, which of the following is the correctly written rate law? Overall reaction: O3(g)+2NO2(g)→N2O5(g

zavuch27 [327]

Answer: $Rate=k[O_3][NO_2]^2$

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

$O_3(g)+NO_2(g)\rightarrow NO_3(g)+O_2(g)$ slow

$NO_3(g)+NO_2(g)\rightarrow N_2O_5(g)$ fast

To determine the net chemical equation, we will simply add the above two equations, we get:

$O_3(g)+2NO_2(g)\rightarrow N_2O_5(g)+O_2(g)$

$Rate=k[O_3][NO_2]^2$

Order with respect to $O_3$ is 1 and Order with respect to $NO_2$ is 2.

Thus the rate law will be: $Rate=k[O_3][NO_2]^2$

An element with a mass number of 11 and an atomic number of 5 has how many<br> neutrons?

Goryan [66]

Answer:

6 neutrons

Explanation:

6 neutrons

Boron having an atomic number of 5 means that it will have 5 protons. 11 atomic mass units in total. Neutrons also have a atomic mass unit of 1. So there are 6 neutrons
