Explanation:
If there are two bond pairs and two lone pairs of electrons the molecular geometry is angular or bent (e.g. H2O). Five electron pairs give a starting point that is a trigonal bipyramidal structure.
Answer:
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, for such formation of sulfur hexafluoride, the standard enthalpy of formation is -1220.47 kJ/mol (data extracted from NIST database). Next, we compute the moles in 10.0 grams of sulfur hexafluoride as shown below:
Next, for the given energy, we compute the total heat that is liberated:
Finally, we conclude such symbol has sense since negative heat is related with liberated heat.
Best regards.
For #2: Odor, Temperature, and color
3.5 M has 3.5 moles per litre
so we have one litre, so we need 3.5 moles
moles = mass/molarmass
3.5 * 23 = 80.5
Answer: Metals form cations.
The alkali metals (the IA elements) lose a single electron to form a cation with a 1+ charge.
The alkaline earth metals (IIA elements) lose two electrons to form a 2+ cation.
Aluminum, a member of the IIIA family, loses three electrons to form a 3+ cation.
Therefore, metals in the s and p block of the periodic table have 1, 2 or 3 electrons in their outermost orbit (or valence shell). Now to gain a stable octet metals lose either 1, 2 or 3 electrons from the valence shell thus forming cation with +1, +2 or +3 charge.
