Chemistry
1 answer:
guapka [62]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Shape- square planar , hybridisation-sp3

Explanation:

Shape:

  1. VSPER theorey is used to determine both electron geometry and molecular geometry of a molecule.(PtCl4)2 molecular geometry is square planar
  2. Hybridisation:It undergoes sp3 hybridisation.since there are 2 unpaired electrons in this case, it is paramagnetic in nature

Choose all that apply. What tools do scientists use to make decisions when employing reasoning skills?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

B, (logic) D (knowledge)

Explanation:

Problem solving refers to the ability to figure out an answer to a question. The question can be general, such as how to design an experiment, or it can be more specific, such as how to calculate speed (its distance divided by time). Reasoning is closely related to problem solving. When scientists reason, they use logic and knowledge to make conclusions and decisions. The processes of reasoning and problem solving are usually more educational than the answer. Figuring something out is a wonderful workout for your brain.

Why do most atoms form chemical bonds?
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Why do most atoms form chemical bonds? They want a full outer shell of electrons, so the lose, gain, or share electrons with other elements, forming compounds, until they have 8 valence electrons and become stable. Double and triple covalent bonds that have greater bond energy and are shorter than single bonds.
