VSEPR theory (known as Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion ) endeavors to explain/predict the shape and geometry of molecules. The theory postulates that atoms in a molecule take a position in space (within the molecule) that reduces the repulsion of the individual atom’s electron clouds so the molecule can achieve the most stable state.
Answer:first one: 3.0g second one: 10g H2O(I)
Explanation:
Milk is the most basic liquid
Answer:
Three of the five oxides are expected to form acidic solutions in water
Explanation:
We have different types of oxides : Acidic oxides, Basic oxides, Amphoteric oxides, Peroxides and Higher oxides.
Only acidic oxides will dissolve in water to give an acidic solution.
Considering the given oxides carefully,
- SO2 will dissolve in water to produce H2SO3 which is acidic.
- Y2O3 will dissolve in water to produce Yttrium(III) hydroxide which is basic.
- MgO will dissolve in water only to produce Mg(OH)2 which is also basic.
- Cl2O dichlorine mono oxide will dissolve in water to produce HClO which is acidic.
- N2O5 will dissolve in water to produce HNO3 which is also acidic.
