Answer is: Benzene is trigonal (or triangular) planar.
VSEPR theory (The Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory) uses the AXE notation (m and n are integers, m + n = number of regions of electron density).
For benzene molecule (C₆H₆):
m = 3; the number of atoms bonded to the central atom.
n = 0; the number of lone pairs on the central atom.
The kinetic energy of the products is equal to the energy liberated which is 92.2 keV. But let's convert the unit keV to Joules. keV is kiloelectro volt. The conversion that we need is: 1.602×10⁻¹⁹ <span>joule = 1 eV
Kinetic energy = 92.2 keV*(1,000 eV/1 keV)*(</span>1.602×10⁻¹⁹ joule/1 eV) = 5.76×10²³ Joules
From kinetic energy, we can calculate the velocity of each He atom:
KE = 1/2*mv²
5.76×10²³ Joules = 1/2*(4)(v²)
v = 5.367×10¹¹ m/s
The reaction between boron sulfide and carbon is given as:
2B2S3 + 3C → 4B + 3CS2
As per the law of conservation of mass, for any chemical reaction the total mass of reactants must be equal to the total mass of the products.
Given data:
Mass of C = 2.1 * 10^ 4 g
Mass of B = 3.11*10^4 g
Mass of CS2 = 1.47*10^5
Mass of B2S3 = ?
Now based on the law of conservation of mass:
Mass of B2S3 + mass C = mass of B + mass of CS2
Mass of B2S3 + 2.1 * 10^ 4 = 3.11*10^4 + 1.47*10^5
Mass of B2S3 = 15.7 * 10^4 g
To determine the Keq, we need the chemical reaction in the system. In this case it would be:
CO + 2H2 = CH3OH
The Keq is the ration of the amount of the product and the reactant. We use the ICE table for this. We do as follows:
CO H2 CH3OH
I .42 .42 0
C -0.13 -2(0.13) 0.13
-----------------------------------------------
E = .29 0.16 0.13
Therefore,
Keq = [CH3OH] / [CO2] [H2]^2 = 0.13 / 0.29 (0.16^2)
Keq = 17.51
