Answer: The correct answer is "B" two bonding domains(or bonding pairs) or two non bonding domains(or lone pairs)

Explanation:

Molecular geometry/structure is a three dimensional shape of a molecule. It is basically an arrangement of atoms in a molecule.It is determined by the central atom, its surrounding atoms and electron pairs.According to VSEPR theory, there are 5 basic shapes of a molecule: linear, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, trigonal bipyramidal and octahedral.

A)Four bonding domains and zero non bonding domains: shape is tetrahedral and bond angle is 109.5°

B)Two bonding domains and two non bonding domains(lone pairs): shape is bent and bond angle is 104.5°

C)Three bonding domains and one non bonding domain: shape is trigonal pyramidal and bond angle is 107°

D)Two bonding domain and zero non bonding domain: shape is linear and bond angle is 107°

E)Two bonding domain and one non bonding domain: bent shape and bond angle is 120°

F)Three bonding domains and zero nonbonding domain: shape is trigonal planar and bond angle is 120°

Hence Two bonding domains and two non bonding domains have the smallest bond angle.

How many functional groups does the isopropanol contain that can experience this type of interaction
nalin [4]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete but what you should know is that isopropanol (also referred to rubbing alcohol) has just one functional group. This functional group is called the hydroxyl group (-OH) and it's the reason the compound name ends with "ol". The hydroxyl group can be seen in the structure of the compound (Isopropanol) below

    H  OH  H

     |     |     |

H- C - C - C - H

     |     |     |

    H   H   H

If there is any functional group in isopropanol required for any form of interaction, that functional group will be the hydroxyl group because that's the only functional group isopropanol has.

NOTE: Functional group is an atom or group of atoms that determines the chemical properties of a compound.

If the mass percentage composition of a compound is 72.1% Mn and 27.9% O, its empirical formula is
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

MnO- Manganese Oxide

Explanation:

Empirical formula: This is the formula that shows the ratio of elements

present in a  

compound.

   

How to determine Empirical formula

1. First arrange the symbols of the elements present in the compound

alphabetically to  determine the real empirical formula. Although, there

are exceptions to this rule, E.g H2So4

2. Divide the percentage composition by the mass number.

3. Then divide through by the smallest number.

4. The resulting answer is the ratio attached to the elements present in

a compound.

           

                                                                              Mn                         O    

                         

% composition                                                      72.1                      27.9    

                       

Divide by mass number                                       54.94                     16  

                                 

                                                                               1.31                      1.74    

                       

Divide by the smallest number                         1.31                      1.31                          

                                                                               1                    1.3

                                                 

The resulting ratio is 1:1

 

Hence the Empirical formula is MnO, Manganese oxide

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

A titration

Explanation:

A common example of a titration is when we have an acid of unknown concentration, so we add a known volume of a base of known concentration. This process lets us determine the concentration of the acid.

By definition, a titration is a quantitative analysis, as we determine how much of an analyte is there in a sample. However, <u>there are quantitative analyzes which are not titrations</u>. This is why the most appropiate answer is<em> a titration</em>.
