Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The molecular geometry of an atom is connected to the number of electron pairs that surround it(whether lone pairs or bonding pairs) as well as its hybridization state. We shall now examine the N, P, or S atoms in each of the following compounds.

a)

In H3PO4, P has a tetrahedral molecular geometry and is sp3 hybridized.

b) In NH4NO3

N is sp3 hybridized in NH4^+ and sp2 hybridized in NO3^-. Also, N is tetrahedral in NH4^+ but trigonal planar in NO3^-.

c) In S2Cl2, we expect a tetrahedral geometry but as a result of the presence of two lone pairs on each sulphur atom, the molecular geometry is bent. The sulphur is sp3 hybridized.

d) In K4[O3POPO3], each phosphorus atom is in a tetrahedral molecular geometry and is sp3 hybridized.

Acetylsalicylic acid (C9H8O4) is a monoprotic acid commonly known as aspirin. A typical aspirin tablet, however, contains only a
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

6 grains

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction between NaOH and aspirin is;

C9H8O4(aq) + NaOH (aq) ------>C9H7O4Na(aq) + H2O(l)

Amount of NaOH reacted = concentration × volume = 0.1466 M × 14.40/1000 L = 2.11 × 10^-3 moles

Given that aspirin and NaOH react in a mole ratio of 1:1 from the balanced reaction equation above, the number of moles of aspirin reacted is 2.11 × 10^-3 moles

Hence mass of aspirin reacted = 2.11 × 10^-3 moles × 180.2 g/mol = 0.38 g

If 1 grain = 0.0648 g

x grains = 0.38 g

x= 0.38 g/0.0648 g

x= 6 grains

The formation of SO3 from SO2 and O2 is an intermediate step in the manufacture of sulfuric acid, and it is also responsible for
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

118.22 atm

Explanation:

2SO₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇌ 2SO₃(g)      

KP = 0.13 = \frac{p(SO_{3})^{2}}{p(SO_{2})^{2}p(O_{2})}

Where p(SO₃) is the partial pressure of SO₃, p(SO₂) is the partial pressure of SO₂ and p(O₂) is the partial pressure of O₂.

  • With 2.00 mol SO₂ and 2.00 mol O₂ if there was a 100% yield of SO₃, then 2 moles of SO₃ would be produced and 1.00 mol of O₂ would remain.
  • With a 71.0% yield, there are only 2*0.71 = 1.42 mol SO₃, the moles of SO₂ that didn't react would be 2 - 1.42 = 0.58; and the moles of O₂ that didn't react would be 2 - 1.42/2 = 1.29.

The total number of moles is 1.42 + 0.58 + 1.29 = 3.29. With that value we can calculate the molar fraction (X) of each component:

  • XSO₂ = 0.58/3.29 = 0.176
  • XO₂ = 1.29/3.29 = 0.392
  • XSO₃ = 1.42/3.29 = 0.432

The partial pressure of each gas is equal to the total pressure (PT) multiplied by the molar fraction of each component.

  • p(SO₂) = 0.176 * PT
  • p(O₂) = 0.392 * PT
  • p(SO₃) = 0.432 * PT

Rewriting KP and solving for PT:

\frac{p(SO_{3})^{2}}{p(SO_{2})^{2}p(O_{2})}=0.13\\\frac{(0.432*P_{T})^{2}}{(0.176*P_{T})^{2}(0.392*P_{T})} =0.13\\\frac{0.1866*P_{T}^{2}}{0.0121*P_{T}^{3}} =0.13\\\frac{15.369}{P_{T}}=0.13\\P_{T}=118.22 atm

There are 3 different possible structures (known as isomers) for a dibromoethene molecule, C2H2Br2. One of them has no net dipol
nevsk [136]

Explanation:

Compounds having same molecular formula but different structural and spatial arrangement are isomers.

Three isomers are possible for dibromomethene.

In one structure (IUPAC name: 1,1-dibromomethene), both the bromine atoms are attached to one carbon atom.

In another two structures (Cis and trans), two bromine atoms are attached to two different carbon atoms.

In Cis 1,2-dibromomethene, two bromine atoms are present on the same side.

Whereas in Cis 1,2-dibromomethene, two bromine atoms are present on the opposite side and hence, does not have net dipole moment.
