Answer : The structure of
will be square-planar.
Explanation :
In the given molecule
, 'Xe' is the central atom and 'H' is the terminal atom.
Xenon has 8 valence electrons and hydrogen has 1 valence electron. Therefore, the total number of valence electrons are 8 + 4(1) = 12 electrons.
The number of electrons used in Xe-H bonding = 8 electrons
The remaining electrons which are used as lone pair on central atom (Xe) = 12 - 8 = 4 electrons
There are 4 bonding pairs and 2 lone pairs of electrons, they will be arranged in the octahedral arrangement around the central atom with 2 lone pairs of electrons on central atom. The lone pairs are arranged linearly across the central atom. The resulting structure will be square-planar.
The structure of
is shown below.
Answer:
Avogadro's number or Avogardro’s constant
Explanation:
I’m pretty sure this is correct if it’s not I’m sorry lol.
<span>These values also increase from the
bottom to the top of a group because the size of the atom decreases, resulting
in a smaller distance between the nucleus and the valence electron shell, which
increases the attraction between the protons and electrons.</span>
Answer:
<h2>1.38 moles</h2>
Explanation:
To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

where n is the number of moles
N is the number of entities
L is the Avogadro's constant which is
6.02 × 10²³ entities
From the question we have

We have the final answer as
<h3>1.38 moles</h3>
Hope this helps you
