What makes the molecular shape of CO2 and NH3 different?

Physics
1 answer:
Semenov [28]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

CO2 is linear whereas NH3 has a trigonal pyramidal shape. NH3 is sp3 hybridized and the lone pairs on nitrogen repel other groups around nitrogen thus the bond angle becomes less than 109.5 (typically around 106.7).

CO2 is also sp hybridized and both O are equally pulling on both sides rendering the molecule to be non polar and linear with a bond angle of 180.

A 65.0-Ω resistor is connected to the terminals of a battery whose emf is 12.0 V and whose internal resistance is 0.5 Ω. Calcula
Luda [366]

Answer:

a) 0.1832 A

b) 11.91 Volts

c) 2.18 Watt , 0.0168 Watt

Explanation:

(a)

R = external resistor connected to the terminals of the battery = 65 Ω

E = Emf of the battery = 12.0 Volts

r = internal resistance of the battery = 0.5 Ω

i = current flowing in the circuit

Using ohm's law

E = i (R + r)

12 = i (65 + 0.5)

i = 0.1832 A

(b)

Terminal voltage is given as

V_{ab} = i R

V_{ab} = (0.1832) (65)

V_{ab} = 11.91 Volts

(c)

Power dissipated in the resister R is given as

P_{R} = i²R

P_{R} = (0.1832)²(65)

P_{R} = 2.18 Watt

Power dissipated in the internal resistance is given as

P_{r} = i²r

P_{r} = (0.1832)²(0.5)

P_{r} = 0.0168 Watt

Part complete during a collision with a wall, the velocity of a 0.200-kg ball changes from 20.0 m/s toward the wall to 12.0 m/s
Inga [223]

The average force applied to the ball= 106.7 N

Explanation:

Force is given by

f= ΔP/t

ΔP= change in momentum= m Vf- m Vi

m= mass =0.2 kg

Vf= final velocity= 12 m/s

Vi=initial velocity= -20 m/s ( negative because it is going towards the wall which is treated as negative axis)

t= time= 60 ms= 0.06 s

now ΔP= 0.2 [ 12-(-20)]

ΔP=0.2 (32)=6.4 kg m/s

now force F= ΔP/t

F= 6.4/0.06

F=106.7 N

The direction of the force on a current-carrying wire in a magnetic field is
Bess [88]

Answer:

Explanation:

The forces acting on a conductor carrying current placed in a magnetic field is analysed using the Fleming's left hand rule.

The rule states that "If the fire finger, the middle finger and the thumb are held mutually perpendicular to one another in a magnetic field, the fore finger acts in the direction of the magnetic field, the middle finger acts on the direction of the current while the thumb acts in the direction of the force.

Based on the rule, it can be inferred this current carrying wire placed in the magnetic field acts perpendicular to the magnetic field and force acting on the wire.
