Answer:
<u>One lone-Pair is present in Ammonia</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
The number of valence electron in N = 5
The number of Valence electron in H = 1
The formula of ammonia = NH3
Total valence electron in ammonia molecule = 5 +3(1) = 5+3 = 8
The lewis structure suggest that :
Nitrogen completes its octet by sharing the electron pair with 3 hydrogen atoms.
3 electron of Nitrogen are involved in sharing with Hydrogen
So,<u><em> remaining two electron are left non-bonded</em></u> . Hence they exist as lone- pair
So, there is only 1 lone pair in the ammonia molecule .
The shape of NH3 is bent according to VSEPR theory . This is so because the presence of 1 lone pair causes more repulsion and occupy more space.
Thus the lone pair is changing the shape of the ammonia molecule . It also increase the dipole moment of the molecule , which gives polarity to it.
I would say C is the most correct.
In D it depends on what water source you're using. Let's say it is a waterfall, then the source of the water (melting ice or a lake) may disappear in the future.
If you're using underwater "windmills" placed in the ocean, then you would expect it to last a while as the ocean will not disappear in the near future.
Answer:
X 154
Check solution in explanation
Explanation:
Average atomic mass = ( mass 1× abudance) + ( mass 2× abudance)+ ( mass 3× abudance) / 100
(149×13.8)+(152×44.9) +(154×41.3)/100
2056.2 + 6824.8 + 6360.2/100
=152.412
Answer:
Water transports important nutrients throughout the plant.
Explanation:
Much like blood in an animal, water is necessary for a plants survival, as it transports important nutrients from the soil all through the plant's stems and leaves.
