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.

The theoretical yield for a reaction is 55.9 g LiCl. The actual yield is 24.6 g LiCl. What is the percent yield of the reaction?
xenn [34]
In chemical reactions, the actual yield is not the same as the expected yield . Actual yield is lower than the theoretical yield . Then we have to find the yield percentage. To see what percentage of the theoretical yield is the actual yield.
Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield x 100%
Percent yield = 24.6/55.9 x100%
Percent yield = 44%

Answer:

1.Ecologists often estimate the size and density of. populations using quadrats and the mark-recapture method.

2. The two key components of ecosystem stability are resilience and resistance.

3.The availability of abiotic factors (such as water, oxygen, and space) and biotic factors (such as food) affect population

4. When the climate is changing in the colder direction it effects the planet in the opposite way than it does when it is changing in the warmer direction. Ad nauseam the contemporary, it’ll keep getting hotter and at a greater rate so the ecosystem is going to die.
