If a perturbation is applied to a system in dynamic equilbirium, the position of equilbirium will shift to favour the reaction which minimises the effect of the perturbation. If the forward reaction is ex...

Boiling points are determined by the interactions between the individual hydrocarbon molecules. The weaker the interactions, the ...

The pH scale is a measure of how many H⁺ ions...

To work out the shape of the SF6 molecule we can use a simple equation which allows us to work out the number of electron pairs. The equation is (old group + electrons donated +/- charge) / 2. If the char...

As you move across the period you are adding one more proton which increases the nuclear charge, you are also adding one more electron, however, the shielding provided by the extra electron is less than t...
