what is molecular formula of a diatomic molecule
N2
which molecule has a pyramidal shape?

a type of spider called a (H20) spider can sit on the surface of the water
hydrogen bonding provides a source that holds water molecules together
which element can A represent?
hydrogen only
a water molecule (H2O) has a bent shape. Which other molecule has a bent shape?
hydrogen sulfate (H2S)
according to (VSEPR) theory which statement is correct?
if a molecule is bent, it will always have unpaired electrons around the central atom
what kinds of information does a structural reveal about a molecular compound?
the arrangement of atoms and bonds
which is incorrect about this formula
there are too many electrons between the nitrogen atom and one of the hydrogen atoms
in a water molecule (H2O), the oxygen atom has two unshared pairs of electrons and two bonding pairs of electrons. How do the unshared pair affect the bond angle?
they push the bonding pairs closer together making the bond angle smaller or bent
what do scientists use for VSEPR for?
to predict the three-dimensional shapes of molecules
in the molecule CO3 predict the geometric shape of this ion
trigonal planar
why can water be used to dissolve many different substances?
water is very polar
when are two atom likely to form a double bong between them?
when sharing two pairs of electrons allows each atom to attain a noble gas electron config
what properties of water explain capillary action?
while the water molecules are attracted the molecules in the sponge, they are also strong hydrogen bonds
