The total number of valence electrons in a molecule of sof2 is ________.

Chemistry
1 answer:
tamaranim1 [39]3 years ago
7 0
Answer:
            There are 26 valence electrons in SOF₂.

Explanation:
                   Valence electrons are calculated by adding the valence electrons present in valence shell of each element present in SOF₂. So,

# of Valence e⁻s in S  =  6

# of Valence e⁻s in O  =  6

# of Valence e⁻s in F  =  7

# of Valence e⁻s in F  =  7

Now, add all valence electrons,

                                =  6 + 6 + 7 + 7

                                =  26 Valence Electrons

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP What is the volume of 28.9 g of mercury if the density is 13.8 g/mL? *
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

2.09 mL

Explanation:

density = mass/volume

13.8 = 28.9/v

13.8v = 28.9

v = 2.09 mL

What is capillary action? Describe how capillary action shown by water is useful for plants and animals on Earth.
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Look Below

Explanation:

Capillary action is adhesion of water. In plants, capillary action allows water to move from the roots to leaves. In animals, capillary action plays a role in respiration where oxygen-poor blood oxygenates in the capillaries.

Which of the following does NOT involve a change of state? a. pouring water into a vacuum-insulated bottle b. sublimation of dry
Elena L [17]
<h2> The correct option is (a).</h2>

Explanation:

  • There is no change of state in pouring water into a vacuum insulated bottle as the vacuum created inside the bottle only reduces the time limit for the transfer of heat by conduction and convection.
  • It helps the content filled in the bottle to be hot and cool for a longer time.

Hence, option (a) is correct.

Rest of the options (b), (c), (d), (e) is not correct because of the following reasons:

  • In the sublimation of dry ice, the dry ice (solid-state) is changed to the vapour form.
  • In the freezing of water, the liquid state is changed to solid-state.
  • During the vaporization of alcohol, the liquid state is changed to the vapour form.
  • During the melting of ice, the solid-state is changed to the liquid state.

Locate Lithium and oxygen on the periodic table. Briefly explain how these elements might combine to form a compound.
Mars2501 [29]
<span>Lithium atoms have one valence electron, where as oxygen atoms have six. Lithium atoms tend to give up their single valence electrons, and oxygen tends to gain two valence electrons from other atoms, like lithium. They do this so they will have filled valence shells.  hope this answers your question :)</span>
