Answer:

Oxygen is more electronegative than sulphur

Explanation:

Bond angle of a molecule is related to the electronegativity of the central atom. The more electronegative the central atom is, the greater the bond angle.

As electronegativity of the central atom increases, the magnitude of bond pair- bond pair repulsion increases leading to increase in bond angle.

Hence, oxygen, being more electronegative than sulphur asserts a greater bond pair- bond pair repulsion leading to a greater bond angle in water.

Which characteristic do valence electrons indicate about reactions between atoms? (1 point)
Leona [35]

The characteristic of reactions that depends on valence electrons is the bond type.

In chemistry, a chemical bond could be;

  • Ionic
  • Covalent

The type of bond formed depends on the number of valence electrons present. When there are few valence electrons on an atom, it mostly forms ionic bonds.

When there are more electrons on an atoms, it mostly forms covalent bonds and the electrons between the atoms are shared.

A gas with volume of 700.0 mL at STP (0.0 0C, 1.00 atm) is compressed to a volume of 200.0 mL and the temperature is increased t
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

393.1 KPa

Explanation:

Now we have to use the general gas equation;

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

P1= initial pressure of the gas= 1.00atm

V1 = initial volume= 700.0 ml

T1= initial temperature= 0.0°C +273= 273K

V2= final volume= 200.0 ml

T2= final temperature =30.0°C +273= 303 K

P2= final pressure =????

Therefore;

P2= P1V1T2/ V2T1

P2= 1.00 × 700.0 × 303/ 200.0 × 273

P2= 3.88 atm

But

1 atm = 101.325 kilopascals

Therefore 3.88 atm = 3.88 × 101.325 kilopascals = 393.1 KPa
