Valence Bond theory predicts that tin will use what hybrid orbitals in Snf5 -1​

Chemistry
1 answer:
LUCKY_DIMON [66]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

sp3d

Explanation:

The ground state electronic configuration of tin is written as; [Kr] 5s²4d¹⁰5p². Hybridization is a concept used to explain the combination of orbitals of appropriate energy to produce suitable orbitals that could be used for bonding.

In forming the compound Snf5^ -1, we have to hybridize the following orbitals on tin; 5p, 5d and 6s orbitals. This gives us a set of sp3d hybrid  hence the answer.

1. Stirring increases the rate of solution
Blababa [14]

Answer:

1) <em>The correct answer is A. Collision</em>

2) A hot solvent helps a solid dissolve faster because an increase in <u><em>kinetic energy</em></u> that also increases the rate of collisions

Explanation:

When a solute is added into a solvent and stirred, the solute particles get distributed to all parts of the solvent as a result of stirring.

More collisions occur between the solute and the solvent due to stirring. This increases the rate of dissolving.

<em>When a solvent is heated, then the kinetic energy would increase and the atoms will collide with a much greater force. As a result, ore solute will be able to dissolve in the solvent. </em>

Which of the following statements describes a difference between a chemical change and a physical change in a substance
siniylev [52]

Explanation:

A physical change is one that alters the physical properties of matter (particularly the form and state).

A chemical change is one in which new kind of matter is formed. It is always accompanied by energy changes (evolution or absorption of energy in form of heat or light or both).

Now, the salient differences between physical and chemical changes;

  1. Physical changes are easily reversible whereas chemical changes are not easily reversible.
  2. Physical changes lead to the production of no new kinds of matter whereas chemical changes leads to the production of new kinds of matter.
  3. Physical changes involves no change in mass whereas chemical changes involves change in mass.
  4. Physical changes require little energy whereas considerable amount of energy is needed for chemical changes.
