Answer: D) 1 lone pair, square pyramidal
Explanation:
Formula used : ![\text{Number of electrons}=\frac{1}{2}[V+N-C+A]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BNumber%20of%20electrons%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5BV%2BN-C%2BA%5D)
where,
V = number of valence electrons present in central atom = 7
N = number of monovalent atoms bonded to central atom = 5
C = charge of cation = 0
A = charge of anion = 0
Now we have to determine the hybridization of the
molecule.
![\text{Number of electrons}=\frac{1}{2}\times [7+5+0-0]=6](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BNumber%20of%20electrons%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Ctimes%20%5B7%2B5%2B0-0%5D%3D6)
Bond pair electrons = 5
Lone pair electrons = 6-5 = 1
The number of electrons are 6 that means the hybridization will be
and the electronic geometry of the molecule will be octahedral .
But as there are five atoms around the central iodine atom, the sixth position will be occupied by lone pair of electrons. The repulsion between lone and bond pair of electrons is more and hence the molecular geometry will be square pyramidal.
An atom having 52 protons and 54 electrons would have an atomic number of 52 and a net charge of -2. This element would be 52 Te 2-, or choice A.
Sodium is an earth-metal (group one), sliver and platinum are d-block metals.... Thus silicon is the metalloid and that is true because it looks like a metal being shiny blue-gray but it exhibit non-metal characteristics, except the fact that it can conduct electricity in a heated state.
Answer:
0.1 M
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
- Molarity refers to the concentration of a solution in moles per liter.
- It is calculated by dividing the number of moles of solute by the volume of solvent;
- Molarity = Moles of the solute ÷ Volume of the solvent
<u>In this case, we are given;</u>
- Number of moles of the solute, NH₄Cl as 0.42 moles
- Volume of the solvent, water as 4200 mL or 4.2 L
Therefore;
Molarity = 0.42 moles ÷ 4.2 L
= 0.1 mol/L or 0.1 M
Thus, the molarity of the solution will be 0.1 M
Answer:
162.7miles/hr
