Draw the Lewis structure of SO3. The formal charge of Sis [1] +2 [2] +1 137 [5] -2

Chemistry
1 answer:
sdas [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Lewis structure of SO_{3} has been given below and formal charge of S is +2

Explanation:

  • Lewis structure is drawn by placing least electronegative atom (except H) as central atom. Here S is least electronegative atom. Hence S is the central atom.
  • Total valence electrons are calculated by adding valence electrons of all the constituting atoms. These electrons are used to make Lewis structure by fulfilling octet of all atoms and duet of hydrogen atoms.
  • Total valence electron in SO_{3} is 24. Octet of S and two oxygen atoms should be fulfilled by using 18 electrons to draw Lewis structure.
  • Formal charge on an atom = (no. of valence electrons)-(no. of covalent bonds)-(no. of electrons in lone pair/2)
  • Lewis structure is given below

Calculate the empirical formula for each stimulant based on its elemental mass percent composition.
Vanyuwa [196]
A.   
elements                              C                H          N
percentage composition    74.03          8.70       17.27
Molecular mass                   12                1          14

# of mole                            6.17              8.70        1.23

÷smallest mole                    5.0                 7.0           1.0

mole ratio                              5    :               7      ;       1

THE EMPERICAL FORMUKLA FOR A. IS  C5H7O

NOTE: #of mole = percentage composition ÷ Mr
            and the ÷ smallest mole is used to find the ratio...for the above question a. it is 1.23


and b. should be done using the same procedure

How many moles of potassium hydroxide are needed to completely react with 2.94 moles of aluminum sulfate
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:- Third choice is correct, 17.6 moles


Solution:- The given balanced equation is:


Al_2(SO_4)_3+6KOH\rightarrow 2Al(OH)_3+3K_2SO_4


We are asked to calculate the moles of potassium hydroxide needed to completely react with 2.94 moles of aluminium sulfate.


From the balanced equation, there is 1:6 mol ratio between aluminium sulfate and potassium hydroxide.


It is a simple mole to mole conversion problem. We solve it using dimensional set up as:


2.94molAl_2(SO_4)_3(\frac{6molKOH}{1molAl_2(SO_4)_3})


= 17.6 mol KOH


So, Third choice is correct, 17.6 moles of potassium hydroxide are required to react with 2.94 moles of aluminium sulfate.

How can a mixture of ammonia and hydrogen be seperated?
ICE Princess25 [194]
<span>The ammonia molecules have weaker inter molecular bonds then the hydrogen and nitrogen, this means that the ammonia condensed at a lower temperature so will be a liquid that will be separated from the reaction, while the nitrogen and hydrogen remain as gases so are easy are recycle back into the reacting chamber.</span>
