A well-known chemist, Havno Szents, has heard you apply the rules for predicting molecular geometry to water; you have proposed ( 1.9b, p. 18) a bent geometry for this compound. Dr. Szents is unconvinced by your arguments and continues to propose that water is a linear molecule. He demands that you debate the issue with him before a distinguished academy. You must therefore come up with experimental data that will prove to an objective body of scientists that water indeed has a bent geometry. Explain why the dipole moment of water, 1.84 D, could be used to support your case.
Week 10 CHEM 1500 10/25 & 10/27 We are 3/5 the way finished with semester! On Tuesday, we learned yet another way to convert to moles. All this section is about is converting to moles. If you get stuck, CONVERT TO MOLES On Thursday, we took our second exam. I’m sure you all did fine. Enjoy your weekend and don’t let this stress you out. It’s Halloween! HAPPY HALLOWEEN
