Because both tin and carbon are members of Group 4A(14), they form structurally similar compounds. However, tin exhibits a great

er variety of structures because it forms several ionic species. Predict the shape and ideal bond angle, including any deviations, for SnCl3−.

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Elements in group fourteen are mostly known to form compounds in which there are four electron domains leading to a tetrahedral electron domain geometry.

However, the presence of lone pairs affects the shape of the molecule. SnCl3− has four electron domains, three of them are bond pairs while one is a lone pair. The shape of the molecule is based on a tetrahedron, however the observed geometry is trigonal pyramidal due to the presence of the lone pair. Its bond angle is now less than the predicted 109 degrees.

Are changes in the state of matter (phase) considered physical or chemical changes? Why?
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Physical changes

Explanation:

Changes in the state of matter are physical changes.

First, the material is made up of the same components that is was before it changed states.

The physical properties of the material changed, but its chemical composition did not, meaning that is is a physical change.

How many atoms of gold are in a pure gold coin weighing 12.0g?
grigory [225]
12.0g x 1 mol / 63.546g = 0.188839581mol 

<span>So, for every 1 mole, we have 6.022 x 10^23 of whatever we're measuring. This gives us a conversion factor of (1 mole / 6.022 x 10^23 atoms) or (6.022 x 10^23 atoms / 1 mole).
</span>
0.188839581 mol x (6.022 x 10^23 atoms) / 1 mol = 1.137191955 x 10^23 

<span>Remember from before that we are limited to 3 significant figures. Since our calculations are complete, we can now round down to: 1.14 x 10^23 </span>

<span>That should be your answer!

Hope it helps!
