Answer:
Because a molecule, by definition, has a valence of zero
(neutral charge, stable). Also by definition, an ion has a positive
or negative charge or valence and is not stable.
Explanation:
Hey there!:
density = 3.51 g/cm³
Volume = 0.0270 cm³
Therefore:
D = m / V
3.51 = m / 0.0270
m = 3.51 * 0.0270
m = 0.09477 g
The shape of XeO₂F₂ is Trigonal bi-pyramidal see-saw tetrahedron (see attached pictures)
- As you said the hybridization of Xe here is sp³d so its geometry has to be Trigonal bi-pyramidal in which F atom located on axial positions but for the final shape we exclude lone pair on Xe to give
see-saw shape (see second picture)
- Remember that we have 5 pairs (4 bond pairs + 1 lone pair) and we have to place lone pair at equatorial position.
126 grams of H2O is formed.
Explanation:
Data given:
volume of the gas = 88 Liters
pressure = 720 mm Hg or 0.947 atm
temperature T = 22 Degrees or 295.15 K
R = 0.08021 atm L/mole K
n =?
The formula is used is of ideal gas law to know the number of moles of CH4 undergoing combustion.
PV = nRT
n = 
putting the values in the equation
= 0.947 X 88/ 0.08021 X 295.15
n = 3.5 moles
balanced reaction for combustion of methane
CH4 + O2 ⇒ CO2 + 2H20
1 mole of CH4 undergoes combustion to form 2 moles of water
3.5 moles will give x moles of water
2/1 = x/3.5
x = 7 moles of water (atomic mass of water = 18 gram/mole)
mass = atomic mass x number of moles
mass = 18 x 7
=126 grams of water is formed.
Answer:
Explanation:
F2 have the weakest attraction to each other because of higher electronegativity when they are brought close to each other they repel each other
