Answer:
A molecule is tetrahedral if the central atom has four bonds and no lone pairs.
Explanation:
A typical example is a molecule of methane (see image).
The electron pairs in the bonds repel the electrons in the other bonds, so they all try to get as far from each other as possible.
They can do this if the bonds point to the corners of a tetrahedron, with bond angles of 109.5°.
Answer: 0.174 g
Explanation:
First of all understand that charge on an atom like here 2+ will not vary molar mass. because ions are formed by loss or gain of electrons and electrons do not contribute to the mass of an atom or ion. so losing or gaining electron doesnt create any difference.
molar mass of Fe, i.e. mass of 1 mole of Fe is 56 g. So, mass of 1 mole of Fe2+ will also be 56 g.
given is 0.003109 moles of Fe2+,
Use maths,
1 mole of Fe2+ weighs 56 g
So, 0.003109 moles will weigh = (56 g / 1 mol ) x 0.003109 = 0.174 g.
