T or F: Lone pairs around the oxygen atom of a water molecule play no role in determining its molecular geometry?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mama L [17]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

They play a very important part. The geometry is not a straight line. It is an angle over 90 which means that the molecule has the same general shape as a boomerang. The two hydrogens and the 2 lone electron pairs try to get away as far as possible from each other. The actual shape results in a tetrahedron shape. But the two hydrogens and 1 oxygen actually look like the aforementioned boomerang.

A 1300 mL sample of gas with a molar mass of 71.0 g/mol at STP has what density?
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

0.055g/mL

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Molar Mass of the gass sample = 71g/mol

Volume of the gas sample = 1300 mL

Density =?

The density of a substance is simply mass per unit volume. It is represented mathematically as:

Density = Mass /volume.

With the above equation, we can easily obtain the density of sample of gas as illustrated below:

Density = 71g / 1300 mL

Density = 0.055g/mL

Therefore, the density of the gas sample is 0.055g/mL

In the following pair, determine whether the two represent resonance contributors of a single species or depict different substa
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

They are resonance contributors

Explanation:

Resonance structures are structures that differ only in the distribution or placement of electrons.

Considering the two structures, we can easily see that the two species have the same total number of bonds and electrons differing only in the distribution of these electrons.

Hence, they are resonance contributors.
