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

Chemistry
1 answer:
LUCKY_DIMON [66]3 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.

What is the relationship between the concentration of particles in a solution and the solution’s vapor pressure? As solute conce
kap26 [50]

Answer:

As solute concentration increases, vapor pressure decreases.  

Step-by-step explanation:

As solute concentration increases, the number of solute particles at the surface of the solution increases, so the number of <em>solvent </em>particles at the surface <em>decreases</em>.

Since there are fewer solvent particles available to evaporate from the surface, the vapour pressure decreases.

C. and D. are <em>wrong</em>. The vapour pressure depends <em>only</em> on the number of particles. It does not depend on the nature of the particles.

Complete the table for ion charge based upon their losing or gaining electrons in the outer shell. (Use the periodic table as ne
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Explanation:

Group one:

The elements of group one shows +1 charge because these all are metals and lose their one valance electron.

Hydrogen lithium sodium potassium rubidium cesium francium

Group 2:

The elements of group two shows +2 charge because these all alkali metals and lose their two valance electrons.

beryllium magnesium calcium strontium barium radium

Group 3:

The elements of group three-B shoes +3 charge by losing three valance electrons.

Scandium yttrium lanthanum actinium

Group 4:

The elements of group 4th A and 4th B lose four electrons or gain four electrons to complete the octet and shows +4 or -4 charge.

Group 5:

Group 5th elements gain three electrons and shows -3 charge to complete the 8 electrons. (octet).

It involve the elements of group 5th A.

Group 6:

The elements of group 6A gain two electrons to complete the octet and shows -2 charge.

Group 7:

The elements of group 7A gain one electron to complete the octet and shows -1 charge.

Group 8:

The elements of group 8A are noble gases and have complete octet. That's why shows 0 charge.

Which of the following elements is the least reactive metal? Sodium, Rubidium, Chlorine, and Magnesium.​
LuckyWell [14K]
First off chlorine is not a metal so you can ignore that one.

Sodium and Rubidium are in group 1 of the periodic table and Magnesium is in group 2.

Group one metals are more reactive than group two because it is harder for the group two metals to lose their 2 valence (outer most) electrons.

As you go down group 1 there is an increase in the reactivity this is because as you go down there is an increase in the atomic radius which leads to more shielding. This weakens the electrostatic forces of attraction making it easier to lose the outermost electrons, therefore they are more reactive.
