It is important to have the correct bond angles of the different atoms and the shape of the molecule due to following reasons;
Among other properties the polarity of compounds mainly depend upon the shape and bond angles of that particular compound. For example, considering the molecule of water, we already know that it is a polar molecule with partially positive hydrogen atoms and partially negative oxygen atoms and acts as universal solvent. The bond angle in water is about 104.5° with a Bent geometry. Unlike carbon dioxide (CO₂) which has Linear structure with bond angle 180° and is non-polar in nature therefore, the bent geometry in water is responsible for the polarity.
Other properties which can also be predicted by predicting the bond angles along with molecular geometries are;
i) Magnetism
ii) Phase of matter
iii) Color
iv) Reactivity
v) Biological activities <em>e.t.c</em>
Answer:
i) 0,7 molH20/s
ii)11,2 g O/s
iii)1,4 g H/s
Explanation:
i) To find the molar flow rate of water, we just convert the mass of water to moles of water using its molecular weight(g/mol) and changing to the proper units (lb to grames and hours to seconds):
ii) Now we just consider the oxygen in the water stream (for 1 mole of water there is 1 mole of oxygen):
iii)Just considering the hydrogen in the stream (for 1 mole of water there is 2 moles of hydrogen):
There are 3 major types of radiation. The Alpha, Beta and Gamma radiation. It is the Alpha radiation that can be stopped by a piece of paper or fabric. Beta on the other hand can be stopped by plastic or a thin sheet of metal and Gamma by a piece of aluminum foil or lead.
If you want an example then a car passing by a standing man is the best one !!
