1. For each of the molecules below, determine the electron geometry, molecule geometry, and bond
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

CCl4- tetrahedral bond angle 109°

PF3 - trigonal pyramidal bond angles less than 109°

OF2- Bent with bond angle much less than 109°

I3 - linear with bond angles = 180°

A molecule with two double bonds and no lone pairs - linear molecule with bond angle =180°

Explanation:

Valence shell electron-pair repulsion theory (VSEPR theory) helps us to predict the molecular shape, including bond angles around a central atom, of a molecule by examination of the number of bonds and lone electron pairs in its Lewis structure. The VSEPR model assumes that electron pairs in the valence shell of a central atom will adopt an arrangement which tends to minimize repulsions between these electron pairs by maximizing the distance between them. The electrons in the valence shell of a central atom are either bonding pairs of electrons, located primarily between bonded atoms, or lone pairs. The electrostatic repulsion of these electrons is reduced when the various regions of high electron density assume positions as far apart from each other as possible.

Lone pairs and multiple bonds are known to cause more repulsion than single bonds and bond pairs. Hence the presence of lone pairs or multiple bonds tend to distort the molecular geometry geometry away from that predicted on the basis of VSEPR theory. For instance CCl4 is tetrahedral with no lone pair and four regions of electron density around the central atom. This is the expected geometry. However OF2 also has four regions of electron density but has a bent structure. The molecule has four regions of electron density but two of them are lone pairs causing more repulsion. Hence the observed bond angle is less than 109°.

Isomers have the same physical properties because the chemical formulas are identical. True False
Luda [366]
The statement is False.
The molecular (chemical) formulas are same in case of isomers but the arrangement of atoms is different in them. The physical properties are determined by the arrangement of atoms within the molecule.

Since the arrangement of atoms is different in case of isomers, the Physical Properties will also be different.

How can Newton's Third Law of Motion be used to explain why it is difficult to walk on a slippery surface, such as ice?
Olenka [21]
E ground pushes you forward. But that interaction is friction. Reduce friction and it doesn't matter how strong your legs are, the surface is incapable of pushing you accordingly. The coefficient of static friction is very low so it is easy to slide your foot rather than push.
