It is important to have the correct bond angles of the different atoms and the shape of the molecule due to following reasons;
Among other properties the polarity of compounds mainly depend upon the shape and bond angles of that particular compound. For example, considering the molecule of water, we already know that it is a polar molecule with partially positive hydrogen atoms and partially negative oxygen atoms and acts as universal solvent. The bond angle in water is about 104.5° with a Bent geometry. Unlike carbon dioxide (CO₂) which has Linear structure with bond angle 180° and is non-polar in nature therefore, the bent geometry in water is responsible for the polarity.
Other properties which can also be predicted by predicting the bond angles along with molecular geometries are;
i) Magnetism
ii) Phase of matter
iii) Color
iv) Reactivity
v) Biological activities <em>e.t.c</em>
1) Use the fact that 1 mol of gas at STP occupies 22.4 liter
=> 1 mol / 22.4 l = x / 0.125 l => x = 0.125 l * 1 mol / 22.4 l = 0.00558 mol
2) Now use the molar mass of the gas
molar mass of CO2 ≈ 44 g / mol
Formula: molar mass = mass in grams / number of moles =>
mass in grams = molar mass * number of moles = 44 g/mol * 0.00558 moles
mass = 0.246 g
Answer: 0.246 g
Answer:
-3
Explanation:
The oxidation state or oxidation number of an atom is the total number of electrons that an atom either gains or loses in order to form a chemical bond with another atom.
The complex anion here is [Cr(CN)6]3-.
Now, as the oxidation state of CN or cyanide ligand is -1, and if we suppose the oxidation state of Cr to be 'x', then; x - 6 = -3 (overall charge on the anion),
so x= +3. Hence the oxidation state of Chromium in this complex hexacyanochromium (III) anion comes out to be -3.

Hey buddy, here is your answer. Hope it helps you.
Explanation:
The force stopping the object's motion might be an obvious one - the ground! Friction is a force that slows or stops motion. Friction is the resistance to motion created by two objects rubbing against each other (the sled and the snow, for instance). Even air causes friction.
