How would you describe geometric isomers?
Which of the following statements correctly describes geometric isomers? Their atoms and bonds are arranged in different sequences.They have different molecular formulas.They have the same chemical properties.They have variations in arrangement around a double bond.They have an asymmetric carbon that makes them mirror images.
What is the molecular shape and name for CO2?
a linear molecule, as it has two double bonds. one carbon in the center, with two oxygens on the edges. the molecular name isCO2, but is also known as carbon dioxide.
What is the difference between molecular geometry and molecular structure?
Molecular geometry is the distances and angles between the each of the different atoms in the molecule. It is essentially the shape of the molecule.Molecular structure includes the shape of the molecule, but also much more, such as its electronic structure. This includes the nature of the bonding in the molecule (such as where there are single, double or triple bonds), the polarity of the molecule (if the electrons are spread out evenly throughout the molecule or if they are concentrated in particular areas, and if so, what areas), etc.
What is the molecular shape of formaldehyde molecule?
formaldehyde is a trigonal planar with non-ideal H-C-H bond angle, that looks something like this: H \ C=O / H where / and \ are single bonds and = is a double bond
What is the molecular geometry of O3?
linear, o-o-o **************2nd Opinion ************* Nope, it's bent. VSEPR theory predicts a double bond, a single bond, and a lone pair on the central oxygen atom. You can't really get linear out of that.
Describe the role of each of the following in predicting molecular geometries a unshared electron pairs by double bonds?
Lone electron pairs give the geometry a triangular base, while double bonds make the molecular geometry bent or angular.
Is Br2 a double bond?
No, molecular bromine is bonded by a single bond.
What is the molecular shape for ch2 double bond c double bond ch2?
h | h-c=o
What term is used to describe a double base?
Just Double
What do you call a scientist who studies DNA double helix?
A geneticist or molecular biologist.
Explain how the molecular structures of alkanes and alkenes differ?
an alkane does not have a double bond.... an alkene does have a double bond between carbons
What is the molecular shape of CO?
This is a linear molecule.
What has the author James D Watson written?

What atom form double bond in amino acid glycine molecular model?
Carbon with oxygen.
How big is einsteinium?
Molecular single bond/double bond radii : 140/165 pm.
What is the molecular structure of is ice?
The molecular formula for dry ice is CO2. Its structure is approximated by a 120o angle, with 2 double bonds connecting each oxygen molecule to the carbon molecule. The molecular formula for dry ice is CO2. Its structure is approximated by a 120o angle, with 2 double bonds connecting each oxygen molecule to the carbon molecule.
What is the molecular formula of a substance that has an empirical formula of C2H5 and a molecular mass of 58 grams per mole?
If C2H5 was the molecular formula its molecular mass would be 29 ( 12 x 2 + 5 x 1) However, 29 x 2 = 58 the actual molecular mass. So we double up the atoms in C2H5 to C4H10 . C4H10 is the molecular formula.
