3 0

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The compound involved here is BF3(boron triflouride). The central atom is boron and it is surrounded by three fluorine atoms as shown in the image.

When a molecule has three electron domains in its structure, the molecule is trigonal planar. Hence, the molecular geometry of the compound is trigonal planar.

4. Identify each substance in the following word equation as a reactant or a product
dolphi86 [110]

Explanation:

4.                 limestone heat lime + carbon dioxide

The reactants in this expression above is limestone

The products of the reaction is carbon dioxide and lime

Reactant is the species that gives the product and it is usually found on the left hand side of the expression.

The product is the substance on the right hand side of the expression that forms through the experiment.

Heat is used to facilitate the reaction.

5. An exothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is given off.

An endothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is absorbed in the process.

An exothermic reaction is always warmer after the reaction whereas an endothermic reaction is colder at the end of the reaction.

6.  Sodium salicylate is made from carbon dioxide and sodium phenoxide.

The reactants are:

                  Carbon dioxide and sodium phenoxide

The product is:

         Sodium salicylate

6 At STP, which element is a good conductor of electricity?(1) chlorine (3) silver
alexgriva [62]
For an object to conduct electricity it should have free or delocalised electrons that are free to pass the charge and hence take part in conducting electricity.
From the given choices
Chlorine is a halogen existing as a diatomic gas. Iodine too is a halogen and 2 Iodine atoms held together by covalent bond. Cl - Cl bonds and I-I bonds are  covalent bonds. the outer electrons of Cl and I take part in covalent bonds therefore they are fixed and not free to move about. therefore no free electrons to conduct electricity.
Sulfur is a solid that too is held together by covalent bonds so it does not have free electrons to conduct electricity.

Silver is a metal and a general property of metals are their ability to conduct electricity.
metal structure are metal ions tightly packed together. when the metal atoms are tightly packed their valence electrons are removed and delocalised. Positively charged metal ions are embedded in a sea of delocalised electrons.
therefore there are delocalised electrons that can conduct electricity 


answer is 3) silver

Kryger [21]

The empirical formula : C₁₂H₄F₇

The molecular formula : C₂₄H₈F₁₄

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

mol C (MW=12 g/mol)

\tt \dfrac{18.24}{12}=1.52

mol H(MW=1 g/mol) :

\tt \dfrac{0.51}{1}=0.51

mol F(MW=19 g/mol)

\tt \dfrac{16.91}{19}=0.89

mol ratio of C : H : O =1.52 : 0.51 : 0.89=3 : 1 : 1.75=12 : 4 : 7

Empirical formula : C₁₂H₄F₇

(Empirical formula)n=molecular formula

( C₁₂H₄F₇)n=562 g/mol

(12.12+4.1+7.19)n=562

(281)n=562⇒ n =2

Molecular formula : C₂₄H₈F₁₄
