The answer to the question
stated above is:
<span> Gas is easily compressible because the molecules of a gas are much further apart than
those of a solid.</span>
characteristic properties of gases:
(1) they are easy to compress,
(2) they expand to fill their containers, and
(3) they occupy far more space than the liquids or solids
from which they form.
False
Explanation: Carbon is the central atom which has valency of 4 and can form 4 bonds to complete its octet. Each chlorine has valency of 1 and can form only one bond to complete its octet. Thus carbon can bond with four chlorine atoms through sharing of electrons to form four single bonds. Thus it cannot contain a double bond.
Answer:
Explanation:
1. Calculate the rate constant
The integrated rate law for first order decay is
where
A₀ and A_t are the amounts at t = 0 and t
k is the rate constant
2. Calculate the half-life
Answer:
The electron pair geometry is Trigonal planar
Molecular geometry - Bent
Approximate bond angle - <120°
Explanation:
The valence shell electron pair repulsion theory enables us to predict the shapes of molecules based on the number of electron pairs present on the valence shell of the central atom and based on the hybridization state of the central atom.
sp2 hybridization corresponds to trigonal planar geometry. Let us recall that the presence of lone pairs causes a deviation of the molecular geometry from the expected geometry based on the number of electron pairs.
Hence, owing to one lone pair present, the observed molecular geometry is bent.
