Answer:

bent

Explanation:

The chlorite ion has been pictured in the image attached with its two main resonance contributors.

The ion has four regions of electron density as shown. On the basis of the VSEPR theory, we expect a tetrahedral geometry.

However, the ion is bent due to the effect of the lone pairs on chlorine which is the central atom in the ion. This distorts the bond angle of the ion hence the ion has a bent molecular geometry.

Firdavs [7]
<span>The half-life of a first-order reaction is determined as follows: 

</span>t½<span>=ln2/k

From the equation, we can calculate the </span><span>first-order rate constant:

</span>k = (ln(2)) / t½ = 0.693 / 90 = 7.7 × 10⁻³

When we know the value of k we can then calculate concentration with the equation:

A₀ = 2 g/100 mL 

t = 2.5 h = 150min

A = A₀ × e^(-kt) =2 × e^(-7.7 × 10⁻³ × 150) = 0.63 g / 100ml

   = 6.3 × 10⁻⁴ mg / 100ml

How does Silicon shape our technological reality
Ymorist [56]
Silicon shapes our technological reality because computer chips are made out of silicon. Different computer parts, are made out of silicon chips, tablets, phones, different electronic devices, everything has some silicon in them. Without silicon we would (currently) not have any of those. That is how silicon shapes our technological reality :)
