Blank 1: polar
The difference in electronegativity between N and H causes electrons to preferentially orbit N, making the bond polar.
Blank 2: trigonal pyramidal
There are four “things” attached to N - 3 H’s and 1 lone pair of electrons. The four things together are arranged into a tetrahedral formation. However, the lone pairs don’t actually contribute to the shape of the molecule per se; it’s only the actual atoms that do. The lone pair creates a bit of repulsion that pushes the 3 H’s down, creating a trigonal pyramidal shape (as opposed to a trigonal planar one).
Blank 3: polar
The molecule as a whole is also polar because the “things” around it, though arranged in a tetrahedral pattern, are not all the same. The side of the molecule with the lone pair is slightly negative, while the side with the 3 H’s is slightly positive due to the differences in electronegativity described above.
Answer:
Percent yield of PI3 = 95.4%
Explanation:
This is the reaction:
2P (s) + 3I2 (g) > 2PI3 (g)
Let's determine the moles of iodine that has reacted.
58.6 g / 253.8 g/mol = 0.231 mol
Ratio is 3:2. Let's make a rule of three to state the moles produced at 100 % yield reaction.
3 moles of I2 react to make 2 moles of PI3
0.231 moles of I2 would make (0.231 .2) / 3 = 0.154 moles of PI3
As we have produced 0.147 moles let's determine the percent yield.
(Yield produced / Theoretical yield) . 100 > (0.147 / 0.154) . 100 = 95.4%
2(CH3)2O3 + 2H2O ---> 4 CH3COOH is the balanced equation.
They trend to lose elections and become anions
