Answer:

Maybe or maybe not (not sure)

Explanation:

A displacement reaction is a type of reaction where one element is displaced by another from a compound.

In the case of magnesium and lead nitrate, magnesium is more reactive than lead. Therefore, it will displace lead from lead nitrate to form magnesium nitrate and lead.

The reaction can be represented as:

Mg(s) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) → Mg(NO3)2(aq) + Pb(s)

Another answer could be;

A displacement reaction does not take place in 'magnesium + lead nitrate' because magnesium is more reactive than lead.

Answer:

5 moles S x (36.02 g S/mole S) = 180.1 grams of S

Explanation:

The periodic table has mass units for every element that can be correlated with the number of atoms of that element. The relationship is known as Avogadro's Number. This number, 6.02x $10^{23}$ , is nicknamed the mole, which scientists found to be a lot more catchy, and easier to write than 6.02x $10^{23}$ . The mole is correlated to the atomic mass of that element. The atomic mass of sulfur, S, is 36.02 AMU, atomic mass units. But it can also be read as 36.02 grams/mole.

This means that 36.02 grams of S contains 1 mole (6.02x $10^{23}$ ) of S atoms.

This relationship holds for all the elements. Zinc, Zn, has an atomic mass of 65.38 AMU, so it has a "molar mass" of 65.38 grams/mole. ^5.38 grams of Zn contains 1 mole of Zn atoms.

And so on.

5.0 moles of Sulfur would therefore contain:

(5.0 moles S)*(36.02 grams/mole S) = 180.1 grams of S

Note how the units cancel to leaves just grams. The units are extremely helpful in mole calculations to insure the correct mathematical operation is done. To find the number of moles in 70 g of S, for example, we would write:

(70g S)/(36.02 grams S/mole S) = 1.94 moles of S. [Note how the units cancel to leave just moles]

Lewis structure for nitrogen triiodide, NI(3)

Rasek [7]

Answer:

Lewis structure for nitrogen triiodide, $NI_3$ is given in the attachment.

Explanation:

Given:

The given compound is Nitrogen triiodide. In which 1 atom of Nitrogen combines with 3 atoms of Iodine. Both Nitrogen and Iodine are non-metals,So they form covalent bond by sharing of electrons.

The electron configuration of Nitrogen and Iodine is given below;

$N(7) = 1s^2,2s^22p^3\\I(53) = 1s^2,2s^22p^6,3s^23p^63d^{10},4s^24p^64d^{10},5s^25p^5$

There are 5 electrons in valance shell of Nitrogen atom and 7 electrons in valance shell of Iodine atom.

So, 3 atom of Iodine shares 1 electron with 1 electrons of Nitrogen.

The Lewis dot Structure is in the attachment.
