The electron domain geometry is trigonal bipyramidal while the molecular geometry of the compound is seesaw.

The shapes of molecules is determined by the number of electron pairs on the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule. These electron domains include lone pairs and bond pairs.

The lone pairs only contribute towards the electron domain geometry and not the molecular geometry. SCl4 has five electron domains hence its electron domain geometry is trigonal bipyramidal. The molecular geometry of the compound is seesaw.

A sample of methane gas occupies 4.50 gallons at a temperature of 80.0 F. If the pressure is held constant, what will be the vol

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

21.19 L or 5.6 gallons

Explanation:

Data Given

initial volume V1 = 4.50 gallons

convert volume from gallons to L

1 gallon = 3.78541 L

4. 50 gallon = 3.785 L x 4.50

So,

initial volume V1 = 17.03 L

final Volume V2 = ?

initial Temperature T1 = 80° F

convert Temperature to Kelvin

T1 = ( 80° F -32) / 1.8 +273

T1 = 26.7° C + 273 = 299.7 K

final Temperature T2 = 100° C

convert Temperature to Kelvin

T2 = 100° C + 273 = 373 K

Solution:

This problem will be solved by using charles' law equation at constant pressure.

The formula used

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

As we have to find out volume, so rearrange the above equation

V2 = V1 x T2 / T1

Put value from the data given and conversion information in above equation

V2 = 17.03 L x 373 K / 299.7 K

V2 = 21. 19 L

So the final volume of Methane gas = 21.19 L

Or for Volume in gallons

1 L = 0.26

21.19 x 0.264 = 5.6 gallons

A solution of diamminesilver(I) chloride is treated with dilute nitric acid. What products you get? [Ag(NH3)2]Cl(aq) + HNO3(aq)

Anit [1.1K]

The reaction is a double displacement one which means the cation of one reactant is substituted to the cation of the other reactant to identify the products. Hence in this reaction, the products are silver ammonium nitrate (Ag(NH3)2NO3) and hydrochloric acid (HCl).

Salts usually have a low melting point true or false

antoniya [11.8K]

Hello!

This is false!! It is the other way around. They usually have a very high melting point. For example table salt is around 800deg C which is approx just under 1500deg F.

Hope this helps. Thank you
