Answer:
CCl4- tetrahedral bond angle 109°
PF3 - trigonal pyramidal bond angles less than 109°
OF2- Bent with bond angle much less than 109°
I3 - linear with bond angles = 180°
A molecule with two double bonds and no lone pairs - linear molecule with bond angle =180°
Explanation:
Valence shell electron-pair repulsion theory (VSEPR theory) helps us to predict the molecular shape, including bond angles around a central atom, of a molecule by examination of the number of bonds and lone electron pairs in its Lewis structure. The VSEPR model assumes that electron pairs in the valence shell of a central atom will adopt an arrangement which tends to minimize repulsions between these electron pairs by maximizing the distance between them. The electrons in the valence shell of a central atom are either bonding pairs of electrons, located primarily between bonded atoms, or lone pairs. The electrostatic repulsion of these electrons is reduced when the various regions of high electron density assume positions as far apart from each other as possible.
Lone pairs and multiple bonds are known to cause more repulsion than single bonds and bond pairs. Hence the presence of lone pairs or multiple bonds tend to distort the molecular geometry geometry away from that predicted on the basis of VSEPR theory. For instance CCl4 is tetrahedral with no lone pair and four regions of electron density around the central atom. This is the expected geometry. However OF2 also has four regions of electron density but has a bent structure. The molecule has four regions of electron density but two of them are lone pairs causing more repulsion. Hence the observed bond angle is less than 109°.

It would be an physical change ; if you melt butter the butter goes from a solid to a liquid so therefore the physical state is changed.
<span>The correct answer is weakened economic strength. When a declning population size starts to occur and develop, the country may experience a weakened economic strength, since the power to produce and create products and services has been hindered and weakened due to its declining population.</span>
1) The trails left by an electron as it moves around the nucleus
The electron model dictates that the electrons have no fixed position so it traces their path.
2) 8
Atomic number is equivalent to proton number
3) Its mass is lowered, but it is still the same element.
The element's identity is due to the number of protons; however, neutrons play a large role in an atom's mass. Thus, the mass will decrease but the element will be the same. Such variants are called isotopes.
