Answer:
d) 8.01 E23 atoms
Explanation:
∴ mass C = 16 g
∴ molar mass C = 12.0107 g/mol
⇒ mol C = (16 g)*(mol/12.0107 g) = 1.332 mol
⇒ atoms C = (1.332 mol)*(6.022 E23 atoms/mol)
⇒ atoms C = 8.02 E23 atoms
When phosgene is reacted with an excess of methanol, this produces dimethyl carbonate. Dimethyl carbonate is used in methylating anilines, phenols, and carboxylic acids, and is also being studied for its use as an alternative additive in fuel.
The industrial production of dimethyl carbonate no longer uses phosgene because of the latter's toxicity. Phosgene widely gained infamy when it was used in chemical warfare during WWI.
Answer : Linear
Explanation : Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN) when drwan in the Lewis diagram shows carbon atom at the center with no lone electron pairs.
The carbon and nitrogen atoms are bonded through a triple bond which counts as "one electron pair".
The molecule has two electron pairs in all and appears to be linear.
Also, according to the VSEPR theory; the electron clouds on atoms around the carbon will try to repel each other.
They will get pushed apart, which gives HCN molecule a linear molecular geometry or shape.
The bond angle that is developed will be 180 degrees since it has a linear molecular geometry of HCN. The hybridisation observed in this molecule is SP.
