A sp2 hybridized central atom has what angles between its hybrid orbitals?
Three hybrid orbitals in a plane at 120 0 to each other. One perpendicular to the plane, a p orbital.
Why graphite conduct electricity as other non metals do not?
Graphite has delocalised electrons. It has layer structure (each layer is called graphene). The bonding of the carbons in the layer can be described as sp2 as the bond angles are 120 0. Each C atom has a p orbital perpendicular to the layer that contains a single electron. These p orbitals form pi bonds which spread across the layer.
What type of boundry is a transform boundry?
A transform boundry is when two plates slide past each other
Does a triple bond often result in a bent molecule?
A triple bond has one sigma bond, and 2 pi bonds. The two p orbitals are at right angles or orthogonal to each other. The triple bond would not cause a bend. But would allow the molecule to become LINEAR !!! This is why we cannot put a triple bond in a small ring such as 5 or even 6 carbons. Introducing linearity would cause much too much strain.
How many electrons can fit in each of the p orbital electron clouds?
Maximum of two in each of the p orbital. there are three p orbitals (px, py and pz)
To make sure a parralelogram is a rectangle how many angles need to be 90?
If one angle of a p/gram is 90o, the other three MUST also be 90o. (In a p/gram each pair of adjacent angles total 180o)
What is the interior and exterior angle of a p sided polygon?
Sum of interior angles = (p-2)*180 degrees Sum of exterior angles = 360 degrees You can go further than that only if the polygon is regular. In that case, all the interior angles are equal and each one is (p-2)*180/p degrees; and all the exterior angles are equal and each is 360/p degrees.
The perpendicular bisectors of a triangle are lines or segments that intersect the sides at right angles and divide each of them into two parts of length?
Congruent (APEX) :P
What is the negation of the statement quadrilateral abcd is a paralleogram and it has a right angle?
"abcd is not a parallelogram or it does not have any right angles." ~(P and Q) = ~P or ~Q
If the perpendicular distance of a point P from the x - axis is 5 units and the foot of the perpendicular lies on the negative direction of x - axis then the point P has?
The question given is quite vague and unclear but in general perpendicular lines meet each other at right angles which is 90 degrees.
Write a word using capital letters your word needs to have 5 acute 2 obtuse and 5 right angles?
PANT. P has 3 right angles A has 3 acute and 2 obtuse angles N has 2 acute angles T has 2 right angles
Are the angles inside a square acute angles right angles or obtuse angles?
A square is a rectangle and a rectangle MEANS 90 DEGREES, so a square also has 90 degrees. :P
How many sigma bonds can the two sets of 2p orbitals make with each other?
Assuming you mean two sets of p orbitals on adjacent atoms only one sigma bond can be formed, by the p orbitals that point between the atoms to form an axial bond. The lobes that are at right angles , ( two unused p orbitals on each atom) could form pi bonds.
what- study the figure shown. suppose that you wanted to prove CAR?
C and P are right angles
Why does a hexagon have all the same size of angles?
because , since each angle measures the same then all of th angles are the same size :p
What letters have right angles?
Letters of the alphabet having right angles are: E T F H and L You can also argue that the following letters contain right angles: B D G P R
What two letters of the alphabet are perpindicular to each other?
p d p d
