Explain the geometry of PCl5 molecule and account for its high reactivity

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nesterboy [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

In PCl5, in addition to equitorial bonds which lie in the same plane ,there are axial bonds. Since it suffers more repulsion it is longer than the other bonds. Also these are weak bondsand therefore these bonds can break easily . Because of these reasons,PCl5 is very reactive.

kherson [118]

Answer:

a rapidly flowing river discharges into the ocean where tidal currents are weak.

Explanation:

The force of the river pushing fresh water out to sea rather than tidal currents transporting seawater upstream determines the water circulation in these estuaries.

When does a star reach equilibrium?
Snezhnost [94]
Actually, that does not happen until the protostar becomes a star when nuclear ignition starts and is maintained. It takes awhile for new star to go through its T-Tauri stage and settle down on the main sequence. 

<span>A STAR does not reach hydrostatic equilibrium until it on the main sequence. Otherwise, it would remain a brown dwarf with not enough mass to to maintain nuclear fusion for more than 3,000 to 10,00 years. </span>

sesenic [268]

Answer:

91.2 nm

Explanation:

The Rydberg equation is given by the formula

     1/ λ  = Rh ( 1/ n₁² - 1/ n₂²)

where

λ is the wavelength

Rh is Rydberg constant

and n₁ and n₂ are the energy levels of the transion.

We can see from this equation that the wavelength is inversely proportional to the difference of the squares of the inverse of the quantum numbers n₁ and n₂. It follows then that the smallest wavelength will be given when the the transitions are between the greatest separation between n₁ and n₂ whicg occurs when n1= 1 and n₂= ∞ , that is the greater the separation in energy levels the shorter the wavelength.

Substituting for n₁ and n₂ and solving for λ :

  1/λ = 1.0974 x 10⁷ m⁻¹ x ( 1/1² -1/ ∞²)  =  1.0974 x 10⁷ m⁻¹ x ( 1/1² - 0) =

  λ = 1/1.0974 x 10⁷ m = 9.1 x 10⁻8 m = 91.2 nm
