Lewis dot structure of PSI3 with minimized formal charges

Chemistry
1 answer:
vredina [299]1 year ago

We need to know how many valence electrons are present in a given molecule in order to determine its Lewis dot structure.

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

Lewis dot structure is defined as the visual representation of atoms' electrons using a diagram. It describe the bonds that exist between a molecule's lone pairs of electrons and its atoms.

A lone pair of electrons on the atom with the formal charge of 1- can typically be converted into a bonding pair that is shared with the atom that has the formal charge of 1+ in order to reduce the formal charges when they are present.

Thus, we need to know how many valence electrons are present in a given molecule in order to determine its Lewis dot structure.

2. The temperature of a gas is increased from 125⁰C to 182⁰C inside of a rigid container. The original pressure of the gas was 1
Lina20 [59]

P1/T1 = P2/T2

125⁰C = 398.15 k

182⁰C = 455.15 k

1.22/398.15 = p2/455.15


p2= 1.39atm

the pressure of the gas be after the temperature change is 1.39 atm

Which of the following elements is the least reactive metal? Sodium, Rubidium, Chlorine, and Magnesium.​
LuckyWell [14K]
First off chlorine is not a metal so you can ignore that one.

Sodium and Rubidium are in group 1 of the periodic table and Magnesium is in group 2.

Group one metals are more reactive than group two because it is harder for the group two metals to lose their 2 valence (outer most) electrons.

As you go down group 1 there is an increase in the reactivity this is because as you go down there is an increase in the atomic radius which leads to more shielding. This weakens the electrostatic forces of attraction making it easier to lose the outermost electrons, therefore they are more reactive.
