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.

Given that sodium chloride is 39.0% sodium by mass, how many grams of sodium chloride are needed to have 100.mg of Na present? G
seraphim [82]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of sodium chloride solution present is 0.256 grams.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

39.0 % of sodium in sodium chloride solution

This means that 39.0 grams of sodium is present in 100 grams of sodium chloride solution

Mass of sodium given = 100 mg = 0.1 g     (Conversion factor:  1 g = 1000 mg)

Applying unitary method:

If 39 grams of sodium metal is present in 100 grams of sodium chloride solution

So, if 0.1 grams of sodium metal will be present in = \frac{100}{39}\times 0.1=0.256g of sodium chloride solution.

Hence, the mass of sodium chloride solution present is 0.256 grams.

A scientist notices that a lump of niobium is warm to the touch and wonders if nuclear reactions are taking place in the metal.
Sedaia [141]
<span>Of the answers listed option B looks like the most complete. Ie "Check for the presence of alpha, beta, and gamma particles." the significant presence of these particles is a specific indicator of radioactive decay, i.e: unstable atoms spontaneously undergoing a nuclear reaction.</span>
