How do we determine the central atom in a chemical bond? How information is need to determine the shape that results in the bond

ed atoms of the molecule? ​

EastWind [94]3 years ago

Answer:

- the central atom is usually the atom with the lowest subscript in the molecular formula and the atom that can form the most bonds. If all of the atoms usually form the same number of bonds, the least electronegative atom is usually the central atom.

- molecular shape (the shape that a single molecule has) is important in determining how the molecule interacts and reacts with other molecules. Molecular shape also influences the boiling point and melting point of molecules. If all molecules were linear then life as we know it would not exist.

Question 4
vazorg [7]

Answer:

H(aq) + NO3 (aq) + HF(aq)

Explanation:

In the given mixture of HNO3 (Nitric Acid) and HF (hydrofluoric acid) in water  the major species present are H(aq) + NO3 (aq) + HF(aq).

On the reaction of  HNO3 (Nitric Acid) and HF (hydrofluoric acid) in water  , it will give a polar solution and will form a homogenous mixture.

Hence, the correct answer is "H(aq) + NO3 (aq) + HF(aq)".

It takes 495.0 kJ of energy to remove 1 mole of electron from an atom on the surface of sodium metal. How much energy does it ta
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

\lambda=241.9\ nm

Explanation:

The work function of the sodium= 495.0 kJ/mol

It means that  

1 mole of electrons can be removed by applying of 495.0 kJ of energy.

Also,  

1 mole = 6.023\times 10^{23}\ electrons

So,  

6.023\times 10^{23} electrons can be removed by applying of 495.0 kJ of energy.

1 electron can be removed by applying of \frac {495.0}{6.023\times 10^{23}}\ kJ of energy.

Energy required = 82.18\times 10^{-23}\ kJ

Also,  

1 kJ = 1000 J

So,  

Energy required = 82.18\times 10^{-20}\ J

Also, E=\frac {h\times c}{\lambda}

Where,  

h is Plank's constant having value 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js

c is the speed of light having value 3\times 10^8\ m/s

So,  

79.78\times 10^{-20}=\frac {6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{\lambda}

\lambda=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{82.18\times 10^{-20}}

\lambda=\frac{10^{-26}\times \:19.878}{10^{-20}\times \:82.18}

\lambda=\frac{19.878}{10^6\times \:82.18}

\lambda=2.4188\times 10^{-7}\ m

Also,  

1 m = 10⁻⁹ nm

So,  

\lambda=241.9\ nm

What happens when chemical bonds break and new bonds form
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Chemical reactions make and break the chemical bonds between molecules, resulting in new materials as the products of the chemical reaction.

Explanation:

Breaking chemical bonds absorbs energy, while making new bonds releases energy, with the overall chemical reaction being endothermic or exothermic.
