What is the hybridization and shape for an XeF6 2+ molecule?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Anna11 [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Xe:[Kr]4d¹⁰5(sp³d³)₆⁺² => Octahedral Geometry (AX₆)⁺²

Explanation:

Xe:[Kr]4d¹⁰(5s²5p₋₁²p₀²p₁²5d₋₂d₋₁d₀)⁺² => Xe[Kr]5(sp³d³)₆²

Ca. #Valence e⁻ = Xe + 6F - 2e⁻ = 1(8) + 6(7) - 2 = 48

Ca. #Substrate e⁻ = 6F = 6(8) = 48

#Nonbonded free pairs e⁻ = (V - S)/2 = (48 - 48)/2 = 0 free pairs

#Bonded pairs e⁻ = 6F substrates = 6 bonded pairs

BPr + NBPr = 6 + 0 = 6 e⁻ pairs => Geometry => [AX₆]⁺² => Octahedron

Xe:[Kr]4d¹⁰(5s²5p₋₁²p₀²p₁²5d₋₂d₋₁d₀)⁺² => Xe[Kr]5(sp³d³)₆⁺²    

XeF₆⁺² => 6(sp³d³) hybrid orbitals => Octahedral Geometry (AX₆)

Radioactive cobalt-60 is frequently used in treating cancer. It took 24 years for a 10 gram sample to decay to 0.625 grams. What
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Half life is 6 years.

Explanation:

T½ = In2 / λ

Where λ = decay constant.

But N = No * e^-λt

Where N = final mass after a certain period of time

No = initial mass

T = time

N = 0.625g

No = 10g

t = 24 years

N = No* e^-λt

N / No = e^-λt

λ = -( 1 / t) In N / No (inverse of e is In. Check logarithmic rules)

λ = -(1 / 24) * In (0.625/10)

λ = -0.04167 * In(0.0625)

λ = -0.04167 * (-2.77)

λ = 0.1154

T½ = In2 / λ

T½ = 0.693 / 0.1154

T½ = 6.00 years.

The half life of radioactive cobalt-60 is 6 years
