Draw all of the Lewis structures of O2 which obey the octet rule and use this Lewis structure or these resonance structures to p

ryzh [129]

Answer:

Each oxygen atom is connected to the central O atom with 2 covalent bonds.

Explanation:

Oxygen atoms are connected by two covalent bonds in the oxygen molecule from the Lewis structure, we see that the bond order for O2 is 2 (a double bond) this is clearly seen in the image attached. There are no resonance structures for the oxygen molecule since there are no partial bonds in the molecule, only the two covalent bonds present.

This structure of oxygen shown in the image is its only structure, showing the covalent bonds formed and other non bonding electrons present in the molecule. The octet rule is followed in drawing the structure. Each oxygen atom possesses an octet of electrons on its outermost shell.

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Pre-zygotic, temporal separation

Explanation:

Reproductive isolation mechanism is of two types:

Prezygotic mechanism
Postzygotic mechanism

Prezygotic mechanism isolation occurs before fertilization and helpful in preventing formation of fertile offspring.

In frog external fertilization occurs. In the external fertilization, eggs and sperms are released in water and fertilization occur outside the water.

Prezygotic isolating mechanisms may include behavioral isolation, temporal isolation, mechanical isolation, gametic isolation and habitat isolation.

Temporal separation in reproduction is the sexual activity in the same geographical range but in different periods.

Therefore, the given reproductive isolation is pre-zygotic, temporal separation.

Complete Question

A student is extracting caffeine from water with dichloromethane. The K value is 4.6. If the student starts with a total of 40 mg of caffeine in 2 mL of water and extracts once with 6 mL of dichloromethane

The experiment above is repeated, but instead of extracting once with 6 mL the extraction is done three times with 2 mL of dichloromethane each time. How much caffeine will be in each dichloromethane extract?

Answer:

The mass of caffeine extracted is $P = 39.8 \ mg$

Explanation:

From the question above we are told that

The K value is $K = 4.6$

The mass of the caffeine is $m = 40 mg$

The volume of water is $V = 2 mL$

The volume of caffeine is $v_c = 2 mL$

The number of times the extraction was done is n = 3

Generally the mass of caffeine that will be extracted is

$P = m * [\frac{V}{K * v_c + V} ]^3$

substituting values

$P = 40 * [\frac{2}{4.6 * 2 + 2} ]^3$

$P = 39.8 \ mg$

Have people considered that aliens could possibly live without oxygen and water and we are looking in the wrong direction for a

bija089 [108]

I have never heard anyone ever say anything about aliens only living by using the same metabolistic processes as humans... But.. there may likely be another planet out there that does use oxygen, although at a different percentage from Earths. Anyways, even if we do find "other" life forms, who's to say that they're on the same level as us? Have you ever considered the fact that ants to us are like we are to other life forms out there and maybe they don't want or can't communicate with us because they see themselves as superior?

Hope that helps!
