H2S
Molecular geometry- bent
Electron geometry - tetrahedral
Explanation:
According to Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory, the shape of a molecule depends on the number of electron pairs on the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule.
For all the compounds listed, the central atom has four points of electron density. This correspond to a tetrahedra electron pair geometry. The presence of lone pairs on the central atom of OF2,NF3 and H2S accounts for the departure of the observed molecular geometry from the geometry and idealized bond angle predicted on the basis of the VSEPR theory.
Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A statement which states a scientifically acceptable general principle that is experimentally tested or verified is defined as a theory.
A theory is the sum of a number of observations which are tested in order to get the true result so that a statement can be framed.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, a theory is a well-tested explanation for a broad set of observations.
Answer: subduction and sea floor spreading
Explanation:
He knew that the continents today were once joined together by fossil records of plants and animals that were found to be on continents far removed from each other. He knew this also by corresponding land forms that matches up as well. What he couldn’t prove is how the land masses would have moved so far away from each other. Subduction and sea floor spreading move the tectonic plates that the continents sit on. That’s what he was missing.
Answer:
The solution turns purple because ammonia is a base.
The solution turned red.
Ammonia gas is neutral, but ammonia solution ( ammonium hydroxide ) is a base.
Adding vinegar to ammonia suppresses its dissociation hence decrease in hydroxyl ion concentration.
If more ammonia is added to the solution, the pink color re-appears.
Hi.
I did some digging and I think I found what you're looking for.
I found this on Q(uizlet)
basic or acidic conditions and the reactants must be heated.
