Explanation:
Carbon monoxide is toxic because it can successfully competes with oxygen for hemoglobin (Hb) sites according to the following equilibrium:
Hb(O₂)₄(aq) + 4CO(g) ⇄ Hb(CO)₄(aq) + 4O₂(g)
Based on LeChatelier’s Principle, CO poisoning can be reversed by applying O₂(g) to victim. This addition of O₂(g) increases system concentration of O₂(g) in the equilibrium reaction thereby overloading the product side of the equilibrium forcing it to shift to the left, decomposing the carboxyhemoglobin (Hb(CO)₄) and releasing the CO(g) and combining with O₂(g) to form more Hb(O₂)₄.
Its hybridization would be sp because Be only has 2 covalent bonds with Cl
Answer:
The electron geometry, molecular geometry and idealized bond angles for these molecules respectively are:
a. CF4: tetrahedral, tetrahedral and 109.5 degrees
b. NF3 tetrahedral, trigonal pyramidal and 102.5 degrees
c. OF2 tetrahedral, angular and 103 degrees
d. H2S tetrahedral, angular and 92.1 degrees
Explanation:
The electron geometry considers the bound atoms and unbound electron pairs to determine the geometry. The four molecules have four bound atoms and/or unbound electrons pairs, thus they have a tetrahedral geometry. On the other hand, the molecular geometry only considers the position of bound atoms to determine the geometry.
Between H3O and H2O, H2O has a smaller bond angle due to the two unbound electron pairs. The bond angle decrease as the number of unbound electron pairs increases in every molecule.
CO2 and CCl4 are both nonpolar because of the 3D geometry of the molecule. Each individual bond is polar but both molecules have symmetrical geometry so the dipole bonds are canceled.
CH3F is a polar molecule because the dipole between the C-H and C-F bonds are differents thus, besides the symmetrical geometry the dipole bonds are not canceled.
The appropriate answer is a. it's valence electrons are held tightly within the crystal structure. Metals are good conductors because they share electrons and so they are free to move about enabling it to be a good conductor. Any substance that has electrons tightly held within bonds will not be good conductors. If the structure of pure silicon had its valence electrons held loosely by a positive nucleus then it would be able to conduct.
