Is this with regards to hybrid orbitals? If it is, you have to look at its molecular geometry. It's sp2 if it's trigonal planar, sp3 if it's tetrahedral.

1. There's an increased electron-electron repulsion due to the extra negative charge, thus more repulsion and increased atomic size. 2. I think you're thinking "ionic" too specifically to only "metal" ions. Cations are normally metals, but not all of them. Normally, naming ionic compounds...

I don't have any experience with this, although I do understand your predicament. First of all, ask yourself what went wrong. Why was it that 2 years ago you were so fond in math and physics, but now you find it to be so incredibly boring? Was it because you learned it to be not what you...

I don't think the clapper is too practical. My experience with a mosquito/fly killer in Taiwan is a container with a brightly lit luminescent lamp in the middle, surrounded by a metal mesh of high voltage electricity (which is then surrounded by an interlocking grid for safety measures.) You...

Well before I go further, what do you mean by industry? Are you thinking of it like process engineers and management positions in companies and businesses? Not necessarily so, there's lots of fields to find your niche in. From what I've garnered, engineering is a social/group work career...
