There are 10 hydrogen atoms that bind and there are 2 pairs of free electrons in the non-binding O atom
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Aldehydes are alkane-derived compounds containing carbonyl groups (-CO-) where one bond binds to an alkyl group while another binds to a hydrogen atom.
The general structure is R-CHO with the molecular formula :

Naming is generally the same as the alkane by replacing the suffix with -al
Butanal or butyraldehyde is an aldehyde which has 4 C atoms
Inside the structure there are 3 atoms involved in bonding:
- 1. Atom C with 4 valence electrons, requires 4 electrons to reach the octet
- 2. Atom O with 6 valence electrons, requires 2 electrons to reach the octet
- 3. Atom H with 1 valence electron, requires 1 electron to reach a duplet
In describing Lewis's structure the steps that can be taken are:
- 1. Count the number of valence electrons from atoms in a molecule
- 2. Give each bond a pair of electrons
- 3. The remaining electrons are given to the atomic terminal so that an octet is reached
- 4. The remaining electrons that still exist in the central atom
- 5. If the central atom is not yet octet, free electrons are drawn to the central atom to form double bonds
In the Butanal structure (C₄H₈O) there is 1 double bond of the functional group (-CHO) between the C atom and the O atom

Yes, especially if its from a lake, pond, or ocean since water moves around. Dinasours could have spit out or maybe dripped some water, so basically yes.
There are 0.454 kg in 1 lb
Cross multiply
0.454 kg = 1 lb
X kg. = 50 lb
50* 0.454 = 22.7 kg
Answer : 22.7 kg in 50 lbs
