Answer:
Using valence bond theory, HgCl2 is sp hybridized while PCl3 is sp3 hybridized.
Explanation:
sp hybridized molecules are largely covalent and cannot conduct electricity hence the nonconducting nature of HgCl2. PCl3 contains a lone pair and three unpaired electrons in sp3 hybridized orbitals.
Answer:
the degree to which they decrease CNS activity
Explanation:
Drugs can be classified as;
✓hallucinogens, example is (LSD)
✓ stimulants, example is (cocaine)
✓opium-related painkillers example is (heroin)
✓depressants
Depressants can be regarded as medicines, that lowers neurotransmission levels, that is depressing or reducing arousal or stimulation as regards to various areas of the brain. these could be tranquilizers, as well as hypnotics and
sedatives. They are drugs used in slowing brain activity, therefore, making them useful when treating anxiety, sleep disorders, panic and acute stress reactions.
Example of Depressants are;
✓Xanax
✓Halcion
✓Klonopin
✓Librium
It should be noted that Depressants are often classified according to the degree to which they decrease central nervous system (CNS) activity.
The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :
What volume of 0.160 M solution of KOH must be added to 550.0 mL of the acidic solution to completely neutralize all of the 0.150 M hydrochloric acid?
Answer: Volume in liters to three significant figures is 0.516 L
Explanation:
To calculate the volume of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:
where,
are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is 
are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is KOH
We are given:
Putting values in above equation, we get:
(1L=1000ml)
Thus volume in liters to three significant figures is 0.516 L
