The molecular geometry is square planar.

According to the Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion theory (VSEPR), the shape of a molecule is determined by the number of valence electrons surrounding the outermost shell of the central atom in the molecule.

In this case, the expected geometry based on VSEPR theory is octahedral. However, the lone pairs on opposite sides of the four single bonds leads to a square planar molecular geometry.

Ben observes how quickly some dry wood is burning in a campfire. which term best relates to ben's observation?
Katyanochek1 [597]
I think this the the list of choices relating to the above question.
reaction rate 
<span>activation energy </span>
<span>collision theory </span>
<span>spontaneous reaction
</span>
The term that best relate to ben's observation is REACTION RATE.

Reaction rate is defined as the speed at which the chemical reaction proceeds. It either is the amount of concentration of a product in a given unit of time or the concentration of the reactant that is being consumed in a unit of time.

Discuss the shapes of s- orbitals, p-orbitals and d-orbitals.
timurjin [86]

The azimuthal quantum number (l) determines its orbital angular momentum and describes the shape of the orbital.

s-orbitals (for example 1s, 2s) are spherically symmetric around the nucleus of the atom.

p-orbitals are dumb-bell shaped. l = 0,1...n-1, when l = 1, that is p subshell.

d-orbitals are butterfly shaped.

Do the following problem using significant figures.<br> 4.5 cm x 2000.0 cm x 4 cm =<br> I<br> cm^3
Anon25 [30]

Given :

Measurements 4.5\ cm\times 2000.0\ cm\times 4\ cm .

To Find :

The multiplication using significant figures .

Solution :

We know , the least number of significant figures in any number of the problem determines the number  of significant figures in the answer.

So , significant figure( S.F) in 4.5 cm is 2 .

S.F in 2000.0 cm is 5 .

S.F in 4 cm is 1 .

So , minimum S.F is 1 .

Therefore , S.F of their product is 1 .

Now , multiplying them we will get :

M=4.5\times 2000.0\times 4 \ cm^3\\\\M=36000\ cm^3

Now , converting 36000 in 1 significant digit .

First we will write it in exponential 2 S.F form.

3.6\times 10^4 \ cm^3

Now , to convert 3.6 into 1 S.F we should round off this .

So , round off 3.6 we will get 4 .

Therefore , The multiplication using significant figures is 4\times 10^4\ cm^3 .

Hence , this is the required solution .
