Answer:
sp3d
Explanation:
The ground state electronic configuration of tin is written as; [Kr] 5s²4d¹⁰5p². Hybridization is a concept used to explain the combination of orbitals of appropriate energy to produce suitable orbitals that could be used for bonding.
In forming the compound Snf5^ -1, we have to hybridize the following orbitals on tin; 5p, 5d and 6s orbitals. This gives us a set of sp3d hybrid hence the answer.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
0.5 M HBr, pOH = 13.5 ; Has the lowest pH
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
From the question;
pH = -Log [OH]
or pH = 14 - pOH
Therefore;
For 0.5 M HBr
[H+] = 0.5 M
pH = - Log [0.5]
= 0.30
For; pOH = 13.5
pH = 14 - pOH
= 14 -13.5
= 0.5
For; 0.05 M HCl
pH = - log [H+]
[H+] = 0.05
pH = - Log [0.05]
= 1.30
For; pOH = 12.7
pH = 14 -pOH
= 14 -12.7
= 1.30
For; 0.005 M KOH,
pOH = - log [OH]
[OH-] = 0.005
pOH = - Log 0.005
= 2.30
pH = 14 - 2.30
= 11.7
For; pOH = 2.3
pH = 14 -pOH
= 14- 2.3
= 11.7
