Answer:
Tetrahedral
Explanation:
For the repulsion of the free electron pair theory, the shape of a molecule will be to repel the bonds and the free electrons on the central atom. In a molecule of carbon tetrachloride, the central atom (C) has no free electrons, so, the shape that repels better the charge is tetrahedral, as shown below.
It means to change, and form means shape. So to transform is to change shape.
Answer:
1.81 x 10²⁴ atoms
Explanation:
To find the number of atoms in the given number of moles, we need to understand that every substance contains the Avogadro's number of particles.
More appropriately, a mole of any substance will contain the Avogadro's number of particles which is 6.02 x 10²³ atoms
So;
If 1 mole of a substance = 6.02 x 10²³ atoms;
3 mole of MgCl₂ will contain 3 x 6.02 x 10²³ = 1.81 x 10²⁴ atoms
Answer:-
Oxygen gains electrons and is reduced.
Explanation:-
For this reaction the balanced chemical equation is
4Fe + 3O2 --> 2Fe2O3
When Oxygen is present as oxygen gas, the oxidation number of O is Zero since it is the only element present in Oxygen gas.
Similarly Iron is present in Fe with oxidation number Zero.
In the case of Fe2O3, Oxygen has the oxidation number -2 while Iron has +3.
So the oxidation number of Oxygen goes from Zero to -2.
Since the oxidation number decreases Oxygen is reduced.
Since reduction involves gain of electrons, Oxygen gains electrons.
I don't know what the problem is, but here are some rues to help you out:
- All non-zero figures are significant
- When a zero falls between non-zero digits, that zero is significant.
- When a zero falls after a decimal point, that zero is significant.
- When multiplying and dividing significant figures, the answer is limited to the number of sig figs equal to the least number of sig figs in the problem.
- When adding and subtracting, the answer is limited to the number of decimal places in the number with the least number of decimal places.
