Answer:

MARK AS BRAINLIEST

Explanation:

Boron trifluoride only has six valence electrons and is one of the relatively rare second period covalent molecules that disobeys the octet rule. There are three bonded groups and so no lone pairs. Six electrons implies three electron pairs and therefore a trigonal geometry.

In naming the compound PCl5, the prefix used with the second element is ____________________.

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf Hepta}}$

Explanation:

We are given the formula:

$PCl_5$

This is a molecular formula, because it contains nonmetals.

1. Name the first element

The first element is phosphorous (P). Since this is the first element and there is only one, we don't need a prefix.

Phosphorous

2. Second element

The second element is chlorine (Cl). It has a subscript of 5, so we must add the prefix of <u>hepta</u>-.

Phosphorous heptachlorine

Add the ending of -ide.

Phosphorous heptachloride

The prefix used for the second element is hepta. The compound name is phosphorous heptachloride.

How might you explain the difference between the pH values of the 0.01 M HCl (pH = 1.1) and the 0.01 M HC2H3O2 (pH = 3.6)?

JulsSmile [24]

The difference is due to the degree of dissociation of the substances. HCl dissociates completely into ions when added to water, while this is not the case for HC₂H₃O₂; therefore, HCl has a lower pH.
