Two posssible lewis structures for the molecule ch2s are given. determine the formal charge on each atom in both structures

1 answer:

8 0

The formal charge on each atom can be known by counting up the number of valence electrons that is present on each atom.

<h3>What is Lewis structure?</h3>

The term Lewis structure is the representation of a compound using its symbols and showing the valence electrons as dots. This question is incomplete as the Lewis structures were not shown.

If it is shown, we can know the formal charge on each atom by counting up the number of valence electrons that is present on each atom.

Suppose that you have 115 mL of a buffer that is 0.460 M in both benzoic acid ( C 6 H 5 COOH ) and its conjugate base ( C 6 H 5

77julia77 [94]

<u>Answer:</u> The maximum volume of HCl that can be added before its buffering capacity is lost is 111.3 mL

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Concentration of buffer = 0.460 M

To calculate the pH of acidic buffer, we use the equation given by Henderson Hasselbalch:

$pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[salt]}{[acid]})$

$pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[C_6H_5COO^-]}{[C_6H_5COOH]})$ .....(1)

We are given:

$pK_a$ = negative logarithm of acid dissociation constant of benzoic acid = 4.2

$[C_6H_5COOH]=0.460M$

$[C_6H_5COO^-]=0.460M$

pH = ?

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$pH=4.2+\log(\frac{0.460}{0.460})\\\\pH=4.2$

When the pH of the buffer changes by 1 unit, the buffering capacity is said to be lost.

pH change for loosing buffer capacity = [4.2 - 1] = 3.2

Calculating the ratio of conjugate base and its acid by using equation 1:

$pK_a$ = 4.2

pH = 3.2

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$3.2=4.2+\log(\frac{[C_6H_5COO^-]}{[C_6H_5COOH]})\\\\\frac{[C_6H_5COO^-]}{[C_6H_5COOH]}=0.1$

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$ ......(2)

For benzoic acid and its conjugate base:

Molarity of benzoic acid and its conjugate base = 0.460 M

Volume of solution = 115 mL

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

$0.460=\frac{\text{Moles of benzoic acid and its conjugate base}\times 1000}{115mL}\\\\\text{Moles of benzoic acid and its conjugate base}=\frac{0.460\times 115}{1000}=0.053mol$

The chemical reaction for aniline and HCl follows the equation:

$C_6H_5COO^-+HCl\rightarrow C_6H_5COOH+Cl^-$

Let the moles of acid added to carry out the change is 'x' moles

Calculating the moles of acid added:

$\frac{[C_6H_5COO^-]-x}{[C_6H_5COOH]+x}=0.1\\\\\frac{0.053-x}{0.053+x}=0.1\\\\x=0.0434$

Calculating the volume of acid added by using equation 2, we get:

Moles of acid added = 0.0434 moles

Molarity of solution = 0.390 M

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

$0.390M=\frac{0.0434\times 1000}{\text{Volume of acid}}\\\\\text{Volume of acid}=\frac{0.0434\times 1000}{0.390}=111.3mL$

Hence, the maximum volume of HCl that can be added before its buffering capacity is lost is 111.3 mL

What do organisms have based on their functions?

mote1985 [20]

Unicellular organisms, cells perform all the basic actions and functions required for living like nutrition, respiration, reproduction etc.

In multicellular organisms, cells divide their tasks on the basis of "DIVISION OF LABOUR" to specialize in certain functions besides respiration etc. Like conduction in neurons, excitation in muscles, RBC production by bone marrow etc.

How do you actually know the chemical formulae for the ionic compound

qaws [65]

If you have to write the chemical formula of a simple, binary ionic compound given the name of the compound, you follow a set of three steps. Let's go through them using magnesium chloride as an example. Write the symbols for the cation and the anion: Mg and Cl. Determine the charge on the cation and anion.
