To determine the structure of the molecule, we add the number of atoms that is bonded to the central atom. In this case, we have 4 fluorine atoms bonded to the central atom, carbon. We then look at the one pair of electrons and then choose the correct arrangement. For this case, the correct shape would be a tetrahedral. Therefore, the bond angle would be 109.5 degrees.

Based on the valence shell electron repulsion theory, the bond angle between the atoms of Fluorine in carbon tetrafluoride is 109.5 degrees. CF4 having a sp3 hybridization would follow the tetrahedral shape which is the most stable conformation.

What is the relationship between electron configuration and valence electrons?

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The electrons that occupy the outermost shell of an atom are called valence electrons. Valence electrons are important because they determine how an atom will react. By writing an electron configuration, you'll be able to see how many electrons occupy the highest energy level .

How many molecules are there in 79g of Fe2O3?

weqwewe [10]

There are approximately 160 grams in 1 mol of fe203 molecules therefore there would be 79/160 = 0.49375 mols of fe203 molecules in 79 grams therefore 5 atoms in total for each molecule of fe203 therefore 79/160 *5 =79/32=2.46875 mols in atoms

In this experiment we will be using a 0.05 M solution of HCl to determine the concentration of hydroxide (OH-) in a saturated so

gulaghasi [49]

Answer: The moles of hydroxide ions present in the sample is 0.0008 moles

Explanation:

To calculate the concentration of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

$n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2$

where,

$n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is HCl.

$n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is $Ca(OH)_2$

We are given:

$n_1=1\\M_1=0.05M\\V_1=16mL\\n_2=2\\M_2=?M\\V_2=36.0mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1\times 0.05\times 16=2\times M_2\times 36\\\\M_2=\frac{1\times 0.05\times 16}{2\times 36}=0.011M$

To calculate the moles of hydroxide ions, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

Molarity of solution = 0.011 M

Volume of solution = 36.0 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.011=\frac{\text{Moles of }Ca(OH)_2\times 1000}{36}\\\\\text{Moles of }Ca(OH)_2=\frac{0.011\times 36}{1000}=0.0004mol$

1 mole of calcium hydroxide produces 1 mole of calcium ions and 2 moles of hydroxide ions.

Moles of hydroxide ions = (0.0004 × 2) = 0.0008 moles

Hence, the moles of hydroxide ions present in the sample is 0.0008 moles
