Answer: 2 lone pairs, square planar
Explanation:
Using the VSEPR ( Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion)Theory
To calculate the number of lone pairs electron can be done using the formula;
Number of electrons = ½ (V+N-C+A)
V mean valency of the central atom
N means number of monovalent bonding atoms
C means charge on cation
A means charges on anion
Therefore, to calculate the number of lone pair electron C=A=0;
Number of electrons = ½ (8+4) = 12/2 = 6
Number of bonding pair = 4
Number of lone pairs of electron = 6-4 = 2
The hybridrization of the compound is sp3d2 because the number of electrons around the central atom is 6.
The geometry of the compound is square planar and this is because of the repulsion between the bonding pair of electrons and lone pair of electrons which causes the lone pair of electrons to lie in a perpendicular plane in order to acquire stability.
Answer:
it is 55.84
Explanation:
it's 55.84 because that is the relative atomic mass of iron and iron is the formula for iron wool
Acids have a pH less than 7 (pH < 7)
Bases have a pH more than 7 (pH > 7)
A pH of 7 would be neutral

The simplest way to use the periodic table to identify an element is by looking for the element's name or elemental symbol. The periodic table can be used to identify an element by looking for the element's atomic number. The atomic number of an element is the number of protons found within the atoms of that element.
