Answer:

The molecule has a bent geometry

Explanation:

Let us look again at the principles of VSEPR theory. The shape of a molecule depends on the number of electron pairs that surround the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule.

Lone pairs distort the molecular geometry away from what is expected on the basis of VSEPR theory.

The molecule described in the question has the form AEX2. Two substituents and one lone pair form three electron domains around the central atom. The expected geometry is trigonal planar but the observed molecular geometry is bent because of the lone pairs present.

Stomach acid is approximately 0.10 M HCl. How many mL of stomach acid can be neutralized by one regular antacid tablet that cont
Radda [10]

Answer:

100 mL

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

  • CaCO₃ + 2HCl → CaCl₂ + H₂O + CO₂

First we <u>convert 500 mg of CaCO₃ into mmoles</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • 500 mg ÷ 100 mg/mmol = 5 mmol CaCO₃

Then we <u>convert 5 mmoles of CaCO₃ into HCl mmoles</u>, using the <em>stoichiometric coefficients of the balanced reaction</em>:

  • 5 mmol CaCO₃ * \frac{2mmolHCl}{1mmolCaCO_3} = 10 mmol HCl

Finally we <u>calculate the volume of a 0.10 M HCl solution (such as stomach acid) that would contain 10 mmoles</u>:

  • 10 mmol / 0.10 M = 100 mL
