<p>Yeah, I got 7,6, and 2. And [Al(OH)4]- is correct, it's an exception to the rule that the number of ligands is generally a multiple of the charge of the cation. Our chem teacher made sure we knew that one.</p>
<p>Spartan Pho3nix + ieatglue: YAY! I feel so much better now. Glad to know some people agree with me! I thought it was totally off b/c everyone else had such diff. answers. :)</p>
<p>Hey, does anybody know how many points Solubility (the one with the three solutions), Flame test (wooden stick), and the section with formal charge will be worth, approxiamately?</p>
<p>Just the individual parts, not the whole problems...</p>
<p>I already said the answers for the flame tests:</p>
<p>Flame tests:
1. N2 - Flame is turned down. Sometimes there is brown fumes coming out.
2.H2 - Small combustion with a "pop" sound
3.O2- flame rekindles.</p>
<p>Probably only 1. That's a question where either you know it or you don't - not like a math one where you can tinker around a bit. I would definitely say only 1 point for that.</p>
<p>OK, question. Im probably the only idiot who made this mistake. For the bonding question (#6 i think) it asked for the bond angle of "F-C-F". I know that tetrahedrals have 109.5 but at the last second i changed it to 180 because it stated specifically F-C-F instead of showing the actual tetrahedral structure or instead of asking for it "around the C atom". I figured it was a trick question, lol. Yeh, i know theres electron repulsions so it wouldnt be exactly 180...etc so i put approximately 180. Is there anyway i could get credit for this or was this completely insanely stoooooooopid?</p>
