CH2Cl2, also known as dichloromethane, has a rough tetrahedral shape. The dipole moment of dichloromethane is 1.6 Debye units with a bond angle of about 112 degrees between hydrogen and 108 degrees between chlorine atoms.
ANSWER:
Chlorine is a poisonous, yellowish-green gas with a strong unpleasant odor. Chlorine is used in a liquid form, and has no actual shape.
Some of the uses from chlorine compounds would include:
To kill bacteria in water, to make it safe for drinking or safe for swimming pools.
Produce paper, plastics, insecticides, cleaning fluids, and antifreeze.
Also, the manufacture of medicines, paints, and petroleum products.
There are more than one molecules which contain carbon and chlorine, but the simplest case is carbon tetrachloride, CCl4. In this molecule, the carbon atom is in the center and the four chlorine atoms are arranged evenly around it, in the corners of square. It is a perfectly symmetrical molecule.
The shape is a tetrahedron with 109.5 degrees between each molecule.
molecular shape : tetrahedral
arrangement of electron pairs : tretrahedral
carbon tetrachloride forms a tetrahedral shape ( a triangular pyramid basically), with the chloride atoms on the 'tips' of the pyramid and the carbon atom in the middle .
trigonal planar, also the hybridization is 2p^2
trigonal planar
Tetradhedral
the chemical formula for carbon is C and for chlorine is Cl.
The chemical bond between carbon-chlorine has an electronegativity difference of 0.61. The bond between carbon-hydrogen has a difference of 0.35, thus is less polar than the carbon-chlorine bond.
1 carbon and 4 chlorine
Tetrahedral.
The chemical formula for carbon and chlorine is CCl4 (carbon tetrachloride).
square
the chemical formula for carbon is C and for chlorine is Cl.
4. 4 atoms of chlorine, one of carbon. The formula is CCl4
The shape that represents a glucose molecule is a hexagon with a carbon coming off the upper carbon
5, one carbon & four chlorine. The prefix tetra- means four, and thus there are four chlorine atoms in a molecule of carbon tetrachloride.
The molecule that you describe, which would more accurately be written as CCl2F2 is the same shape as a methane molecule; the carbon is in the center, and it is surrounded by a symmetrical arrangement of two chlorine and two fluorine atoms, which are at the points of a tetrahedron.
Carbon, Hydrogen and Chlorine. The Chloroform molecule is CHCl3 . Its modern IUPAC name is 'Trichloromethane'.
If you know your Classics (Latin), the name gives the clue . 'Tetra' means four(4). So carbon tetrachloride is has four chlorine atoms. Its modern IUPAC name is 'Tetrachlormethane'. It has the formula 'CCl4'.
A H2O molecule is bent and a CCl4 is tetrahedral.
linear
The chemical bond between carbon-chlorine has an electronegativity difference of 0.61. The bond between carbon-hydrogen has a difference of 0.35, thus is less polar than the carbon-chlorine bond.
if you see you can make 3 elements are in each compound of this molecule. I THINK!
