Answer : Methane $CH_{4}$ does not has any resonating structures or isomers.

Explanation : Methane has tetrahedral geometry where all the valence bonds of carbon are satisfied with hydrogen atoms which are similar to each other. They also do not produce any lewis dot structure. Therefore, methane cannot have resonating structures.

Answer:

Zero.

Explanation:

Hello,

As long as methane has hydrogen atoms all around the carbon atom sharing four valance electrons to attain the octate in a tetrahedral structure, no matter where the hydrogens get moved, its molecular arrangement will always have the same Lewis structure or 3D projection (attached picture) in this manner, it does not have any resonance structures.

Best regards.

How much calcium hypochlorite (65% strength) is needed to make 200 L of 2% hypochlorite solution? (Assume that a 1% solution is

g100num [7]

To solve this we use the equation,

M1V1 = M2V2

where M1 is the concentration of the stock solution, V1 is the volume of the stock solution, M2 is the concentration of the new solution and V2 is its volume.

65 x V1 = 2 x 200 L

V1 = 6.15 L

What periodic trends exist for electronegativity?

Anna007 [38]

The highest electronegativity is in the elements in the top left corner of the periodic table, and the lowest in the bottom right corner. Therefore, traveling up or to the left across the periodic table will increase the electronegativity

A mothball, composed of naphthalene (C10H8), has a mass of 1.52g. How many naphthalene molecules does it contain?

Anna35 [415]

The molar mass of naphthalene is calculated as follows,
10 x (12.01 g/ mol) + 8 x (1.01 g/mol) = 128.12 g/mol
Divide the given mass by the molar mass to determine the number of moles of naphthalene present in the ball.
n = 1.52 g / 128.12 g/mol = 0.01186 mole
Multiply the number of moles to number of moles per mole.
(0.01186 mol) x (6.022 x10^23 molecules / mole) = 7.14 x 10^21 molecules
