Question 5: Causes of Molecular Shape (3 points)

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sonja [21]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A. VSEPR theory assumes each atom molecule has a geometry to help minimize the repulsion between the electrons within the valence shell of the central atom.

B. Repulsion determines the molecular shape as the electrons are negativley charged. The negativity makes the atoms spread out as much as possible.

C. Lone electron pairs have greater repelling effects as they are closer to the nucleus of the central atom unlike bonding pairs.

Molecules of carbon dioxide are linear. What type of force exists between<br>these molecules?​
Vadim26 [7]

London Dispersion forces

Explanation:

London dispersion forces exists between the molecules of CO₂. These are weak attractions found between non-polar (and polar) molecules(symmetrical molecules).

  • This attraction sometimes makes non-polar molecules polar.
  • This is because of the uneven charge distribution caused by the constant motion of its electrons.
  • A temporary dipole or instantaneous dipole induces the neighboring molecules to become distorted and forms dipoles as well.
  • The forces are the weakest of all electrical forces.

When aluminum oxidizes in air it forms aluminum oxide (al2o3) if a 51 sheet?
Ede4ka [16]
<span>Answer: mol Al2O3 x 1 mol Al/ 2 mol Al2O3= .25 mol Al The balanced equation tells us that it takes 4 moles of Al to produce 2 moles of Al2O3. 0.50 moles Al2O3 x (4 moles Al / 2 moles Al2O3) = 1.0 moles Al 1.0 moles Al x (27.0 g Al / 1 mole Al) = 27.0 g Al</span>

If a 185-lb patient is prescribed 145mg. What dosage is the patient receiving in mg/kg of his body weight?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

1.728 mg/kg

Explanation:

First have to convert the patient's weight to kg

1 lb = 0.454 kg

185 lb in kg = 83.9 kg

Then we have to divide the dose per the weight of the patient

145 mg for 83.9 kg =  145/83.9

= 1.728 mg/kg
