One Hydrogen atom (H) and one Oxygen atom (O) surround the central Carbon atom (C) in the HCP Lewis structure (O). Carbon (C) and Phosphorus (P) have a triple bond, and Carbon (C) and Hydrogen (H) have a single bond.

<h3>How can you choose the ideal format for a formal charge?</h3>

The Lewis structure with the negative formal charges on the most electronegative atoms is the one to choose from when faced with a choice between numerous Lewis structures with similar formal charge distributions.

<h3>How do you determine the preferred resonance structure?</h3>

The resonance forms with the fewest non-zero formal charge atoms are selected. Resonance develops atoms that have a negative formal charge or are the most electronegative are preferred.

If the initial concentration of a is 0.00540 m, what will be the concentration after 795 s?
zavuch27 [327]
<span>Feb 19, 2014 - The units of k tell you that this is a second order reaction. So, to solve this, you need to use the integrated rate law for a 2nd order reaction: 1/[A] = kt + 1/[A]o 1/[A] = 0.540/Ms (835 s) + 1/0.00640 1/[A] = 607 [A] = 1.65X10^-3 M.</span><span>

What type of bond is formed between different molecules of water
boyakko [2]
The hydrogen and oxygen atoms that combine to form water molecules are bound together by covalent bonds. The electron from the hydrogen splits its time between the incomplete outer shell of the hydrogen atom and the incomplete outer shell of the oxygen atom.
