(a)
Interpretation:
The molecular structure of given molecule is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
VSEPR theory helps to draw the molecular shape as:
Total number of valence electron pairs | Number of bond pairs | Number of lone pairs | Geometry and shape |
2 | 2 | 0 | linear |
3 | 3 | 0 | Trigonal planar |
2 | 1 | bent | |
4 | 4 | 0 | Tetrahedral |

(3) points) OH OH بر بد بدید 2 3arrow_forwardThere is an instrument in Johnson 334 that measures total-reflectance x-ray fluorescence (TXRF) to do elemental analysis (i.e., determine what elements are present in a sample). A researcher is preparing a to measure calcium content in a series of well water samples by TXRF with an internal standard of vanadium (atomic symbol: V). She has prepared a series of standard solutions to ensure a linear instrument response over the expected Ca concentration range of 40-80 ppm. The concentrations of Ca and V (ppm) and the instrument response (peak area, arbitrary units) are shown below. Also included is a sample spectrum. Equation 1 describes the response factor, K, relating the analyte signal (SA) and the standard signal (SIS) to their respective concentrations (CA and CIS).
