Answer:
H2 + I2 --> 2HI
Explanation:
The two reactants are diatomic molecules because they contain two atoms of the same element. Therefore, they would need to have a subscript of "2" next to their symbols.
When balancing an equation, you want the same amount and type of atoms on both sides. By adding a coefficient of "2" in front of the product, two H's and two I's are now on both sides.
Answer:
10.32 moles of ammonia NH₃
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Number of molecules = 6.21×10²⁴ molecules
Number of mole of NH₃ =?
The number of mole of NH₃ can be obtained as follow:
From Avogadro's hypothesis,
6.02×10²³ molecules = 1 mole
Therefore,
6.21×10²⁴ molecules = 6.21×10²⁴ / 6.02×10²³
6.21×10²⁴ molecules = 10.32 moles
Thus, 6.21×10²⁴ molecules contains 10.32 moles of ammonia NH₃
Answer:
The bond angles between the axial bonding groups are slightly less than 180°.
The bond angles between the equatorial bonding groups are slightly less than 120°.
Explanation:
Accordign to VSEPR theory, a molecule with four bonding groups and one lone pair on the central atom has a trigonal bipyramidal electronic geometry.
The position of the lone pair can be located in the equatorial position or axial position.
When the lone pair is found in equatorial position, it has two axial groups that repel it and the angle of the lone pair between each axial group is 90°.
When the lone pair is in axial position it has 3 equatorial groups that repel it and the angle of the lone pair between each equatorial group is 90°.
Since the molecule has a lone pair, the most stable geometric structure is when the lone pair is in the equatorial position, because it has fewer repulsions than in the axial position.
The molecular geometry is "seesaw"
The bond angles between the axial bonding groups are slightly less than 180°.
The bond angles between the equatorial bonding groups are slightly less than 120°.
The isotope is identified as 58 Fe²⁺, where 58 is the mass number of the isotope.
Explanation:
In this problem, there is difference in the number of protons and electrons, but the electron number should not vary in a stable isotope. As isotopes are meant to have difference in number of neutrons leading to change in the mass number. So this means, in the present case the isotope is in oxidized state as the number of electrons is less than the number of protons. This indicates that the isotope is in +2 oxidation state, since the difference in the number of protons and electrons is 2.
Then as an isotope will be formed by varying in the number of neutrons for the elements in periodic table. So from the number of protons we can confirm the atomic number of the element. As the atomic number is given as number of protons in case of oxidized element, the atomic number of 26 in the present case will be related to Fe element in the periodic table.
Hence the isotope will be Fe in +2 oxidation state and having the atomic number as 26 and mass number as 26+32 = 58. So there is a change in the mass number of the isotope of Fe from 56 to 58.
Thus, the isotope is identified as 58 Fe²⁺, where 58 is the mass number of the isotope.
