Do you think that a synthetic Diamond should be treated like a natural Diamond? Why or why not?

Chemistry

grandymaker [24]2 years ago

No, because a natural diamond is a feat of nature and it is amazing how nature made the intricate structure in a diamond. synthetic diamonds are created in laboratory conditions, so it feels less 'amazing' that the diamond was created because each diamond doesn't feel so unique.

However, the molecular structure of both synthetic and natural diamonds are identical, so it is nearly impossible to tell the difference (if you don't know which is which).

Select correct examples of linear molecules for five electron groups. Select correct examples of linear molecules for five elect
Shalnov [3]

Explanation:

Formula to calculate hybridization is as follows.

                Hybridization = \frac{1}{2}[V+N-C+A]

where,

V = number of valence electrons present in central atom

N = number of monovalent atoms bonded to central atom

C = charge of cation

A = charge of anion

So, hybridization of BeCl_{2} is as follows.

              Hybridization = \frac{1}{2}[V + N - C + A]

                                    = \frac{1}{2}[2 + 2]

                                    = 2

Hybridization of BeCl_{2} is sp. Therefore, BeCl_{2} is a linear molecule. There will be only two electron groups through which Be is attached.

Similarly, hybridization of XeF_{2} is calculated as follows.

         Hybridization = \frac{1}{2}[V + N - C + A]

                                    = \frac{1}{2}[8 + 2]

                                    = 5

Therefore, hybridization of XeF_{2} is sp^{3}d. Therefore, [tex]XeF_{2} is also a linear molecule. Though there are three lone pair of electrons present on a xenon atom and it is further attached with fluorine atoms through two electron pairs. Hence, there are in total five electron groups.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options XeF_{2} is the correct examples of linear molecules for five electron groups.

Depending on the reaction, we could monitor the progress towards equilibrium by observing __________.
Alex Ar [27]

Depending on the reaction, we could monitor the progress towards equilibrium by observing the concentration of the reactant and the product are equal with time.

<h3>What is equilibrium?</h3>

Equilibrium is a stage of reaction in which the rate of forwarding reaction is equal to the rate of backward reaction and equilibrium is stable at the reversible state of mode.

The concentration of reactant and product must also be equal or the same as the time then only it can be an equilibrium reaction.

Therefore equilibrium depends on the reaction, the concentration of the reactant and the product are equal with time.
