We have learned that the lewis model portrays a chemical bond as the transfer or sharing of electrons represented as dots. valence bond theory portrays a chemical bond as the overlap of two half-filled atomic orbitals. what is a chemical bond according to molecular orbital theory?

According to molecular orbital theory, chemical bond occurs as electrons are able to reduce their energy by entering the resulting molecular orbitals.

Chemical bonds are not located among atoms, they are distributed all over the molecule.

Uses test methods to solve the equation of Schrodinger.

You can never do better than nature, however strong your assumption is. Calculations of minimum energy must be done by software.

1. for the first question, we must find the mass of the anhydrous salt, mgso₄. the molar mass for mgso₄·7h₂o is 246.47 g/mol, while that of mgso₄ is 120.37 g/mol.7.834 g mgso₄·7h₂o * 1 mol mgso₄·7h₂o/246.47 g * 1 mol mgso₄/1 mol mgso₄·7h₂o * 20.37 g mgso₄/mol = 0.647 g mgso₄

2. mass of water = mass of sample - mass of anhydrous salemass of water = 7.834 - 0.647 = 7.19 gpercent water in hydrate = 7.19/7.834 * 100 = 91.74%

the answer would be b i believe
