Answer:As predicted by VSEPR theory, the molecule adopts a "bent" molecular geometry similar to that of water.
Explanation:
Answer:
C-Electrical energy changed into mechanical energy
Explanation:
Energy, according to the law of conservation of energy, is said to neither be created or lost but only interchangeable from one form to another. Energy exists in different forms. The process by which one form of energy changes to another is called TRANSFORMATION of energy.
However, certain household appliances or devices bring about this transformation of energy. For example, in a case where Tony turns a fan on when his room becomes uncomfortably hot. The fan uses an electric source to get powered on, which then facilitates the blades of the fan to move fast in order to bring about a cool atmosphere.
The fan converts ELECTRICAL energy (electric source) into MECHANICAL energy (moving energy).
Amphiprotic compounds are able to both donate and accept a proton.
Amphiprotic compounds contain a hydrogen atom and lone pair of valence electron.
For example, HSO₃⁻ (hydrogen sulfate ion) is an amphiprotic compound.
Balanced chemical equation for reaction when HSO₃⁻ donate protons to water:
HSO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ SO₄²⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq).
Ka = [SO₄²⁻] · [H₃O⁺] / [HSO₃⁻]
Balanced chemical equation for reaction when HSO₃⁻ accepts protons from water:
HSO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ H₂SO₄(aq) + OH⁻(aq).
Kb = [H₂SO₄] · [OH⁻] / [HSO₃⁻]
Water (H₂O), amino acids, hydrogen carbonate ions (HCO₃⁻) are examples of amphiprotic species.
Another example, water is an amphiprotic substance:
H₂O + HCl → H₃O⁺ + Cl⁻
H₂O + NH₃ → NH₄⁺ + OH⁻
