What causes bond angle to increase?
When electron pairs are distributed away from the central atom, repulsions are decreased allowing smaller bond angles. ... As more electron density remains on the central atom, electron repulsion between the bonded pairs increases and bond angles increase.
What factor or factors determine the bond length of bond angle and why?
The length of the bond is determined by the number of bonded electrons (the bond order). The higher the bond order, the stronger the pull between the two atoms and the shorter the bond length. Generally, the length of the bond between two atoms is approximately the sum of the covalent radii of the two atoms.
How is bond angle determined?
The bond angles depend on the number of lone electron pairs. For example, boron trichloride has no lone pairs, a trigonal planar shape and bond angles of 120 degrees. The trioxygen molecule O3 has one lone pair and forms a bent shape with bond angles of 118 degrees.
At what angle do 4 bonds spread?
The ideal bond angle for a molecule with four bonds is 109° which corresponds to a tetrahedral geometry. This enables the four bonds to spread as far apart in space as possible.
Which has the largest bond angle?
The bond angle in H2O is about (104.5∘). In H2O,O-atom has two lone pairs. The bond angle in NH3 is about 107∘C.
Who are the 2 most electronegative elements on the periodic table why does this question apply to Part 3?
The 2 most electronegative elements on the periodic table are Fluorine and Oxygen. This question applies to part 3 because all of the molecules except one uses fluorine and oxygen which means that they are all mostly electronegativity.
How does the capacitance of an AC circuit affect the current?
The AC power supply produces an oscillating voltage. The larger the capacitance, the more charge has to flow to build up a particular voltage on the plates, and the higher the current will be. The higher the frequency of the voltage, the shorter the time available to change the voltage, so the larger the current has to be.
What happens when a capacitor is connected to a DC supply?
When a capacitor is connected across a DC supply voltage it charges up to the value of the applied voltage at a rate determined by its time constant. A capacitor will maintain or hold this charge indefinitely as long as the supply voltage is present. During this charging process, a charging current,...
What are the factors that affect capacitor construction?
One relatively easy factor to vary in capacitor construction is that of plate area, or more properly, the amount of plate overlap. The following photograph shows an example of a variable capacitor using a set of interleaved metal plates and an air gap as the dielectric material:
How does current lead voltage in a capacitor?
The capacitor is connected directly across the AC supply voltage. As the supply voltage increases and decreases, the capacitor charges and discharges with respect to this change. A current will flow through the circuit, first in one direction, then in the other. However, no current actually flows through the capacitor.
