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.

For the balanced chemical reaction
musickatia [10]

Answer:

150

Explanation:

  • C₄H₂OH + 6O2 → 4CO2 + 5H₂O

We can <u>find the equivalent number of O₂ molecules for 100 molecules of CO₂</u> using a <em>conversion factor containing the stoichiometric coefficients of the balanced reaction</em>, as follows:

  • 100 molecules CO₂ * \frac{6moleculesO_2}{4moleculesCO_2} = 150 molecules O₂

150 molecules of O₂ would produce 100 molecules of CO₂.

A gas mixture with 4 mol of Ar, x moles of Ne, and y moles
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

a) \Delta G_{mixing}=\frac{R*T}{12}*[4*ln (1/3) +x*ln (x/12) +(8-x)*ln ((8-x)/12)]

b) x=4

c) \Delta G_{max}=-2721.9 J/mol

Explanation:

Gas mixture:

n_{Ar}= 4 mol

n_{Ne}= x mol

n_{Xe}= y mol

n_{tot}= n_{Ar} + n_{Ne} + n_{Xe}=3*n_{Ar}

n_{Ne} + n_{Xe}=2*n_{Ar}

x + y=8 mol

y=8 mol- x

Mol fractions:

x_{Ar}=\frac{4 mol}{12 mol}=1/3

x_{Ne}=\frac{x mol}{12 mol}=x/12

x_{Xe}=\frac{8 - x mol}{12 mol}=(8-x)/12

Expression of \Delta G_{mixing}

\Delta G_{mixing}=R*T*\sum_{i]*x_i*ln (x_i)

\Delta G_{mixing}=R*T*[1/3*ln (1/3) +x/12*ln (x/12) +(8-x)/12*ln ((8-x)/12)]

\Delta G_{mixing}=\frac{R*T}{12}*[4*ln (1/3) +x*ln (x/12) +(8-x)*ln ((8-x)/12)]

Expression of \Delta G_{max}

\frac{d \Delta G_{mixing}}{dx}=0

\frac{d \Delta G_{mixing}}{dx}=\frac{R*T}{12}*[ln (x/12)+12-ln ((8-x)/12)-12]

0=\frac{R*T}{12}*[ln (x/12)-ln ((8-x)/12)

0=[ln (x/12)-ln ((8-x)/12)

ln (x/12)=ln ((8-x)/12)

x=(8-x)

x=4

\Delta G_{max}=\frac{8.314*298}{12}*[4*ln (1/3) +4*ln (4/12) +(8-4)*ln ((8-4)/12)]

\Delta G_{max}=\frac{8.314*298}{12}*[4*ln (1/3) +4*ln (1/3) +(4)*ln (1/3)]

\Delta G_{max}=\frac{8.314*298}{12}*[12*ln (1/3)]

\Delta G_{max}=-2721.9 J/mol

In which of these situations is convection most likely the main form of heat transfer?
lorasvet [3.4K]
In the first situation: the mechanism of covection is the main form of heat transfer when warm air from a heater moves around and upward.

In the case of the metal pan the mechanism of heat transfer is conduction.

In the case of sunburn the mechanism is radiation.

In the case of an ice cube melting in a hand, conduction is the most important mechanism.

Drug testing if a person do not use drugs how cam he test positive on hair drug test
Hitman42 [59]

For example, certain medications may influence the results of the test.

Drug test can show the presence of illicit or prescription drugs on hair samples, although the person has not used these drugs.

Some of false positive drug use is because of this medications: antihistamines, decongestants, antibiotics, antidepressants, analgesics and antipsychotics.
