The valence electron configuration for antimony (Sb) is:
Sb = 5s²5p³5d⁰
In SbCl₅²⁻, antimony has a -2 charge i.e. it has 2 additional electrons
Sb²⁻ = 5s²5p⁵5d⁰
Following a two electron transition from p→d orbital we have:
Sb²⁻ = 5s²5p³5d²
There is a total of 5 unpaired electrons (3 in the p and 2 in the d) which can form five bonds with the 5 Cl atoms.
Thus the hybridisation of Sb in SbCl₅²⁻ is sp³d²
It differs because it is a unicellular plant. Many scientists claim that Volvoxes are protists while many claim that they are plants, and protists are not plants.
A frequency of 60 MHz is close to the lower end of the old VHF-TV band.
c = f λ ...... where c is the speed of light, f is the frequency and λ is the wavelength
λ = c / f = 3.00x10^8 m/s / 6.0x10^7 1/s
λ = 5.0 m
D.
both are stated to be in aqueous solutions by the (aq)
Answer:
the equilibrium constant is 1.8 x 10⁻5 and strongly favor the reactants.
Explanation:
the chemical reaction provided for the two equation are the same but different direction i.e a reversible reaction. Assuming, the mass of reactants and product and temperature remain constant.
therefore, the equilibrium constant K, is 1.8 x 10⁻5. this is a very small value of K, thereby strongly favor the backward direction to form reactant.
