Write the lewis structure for mgi2. draw the lewis dot structure for mgi2. include all lone pairs of electrons.
1 answer:
Lewis Structure is drawn in following steps,
1) Calculate Number of Valence Electrons:
# of Valence electrons in Mg = 2
# of Valence electrons in I = 7
# of Valence electrons in I = 7
---------
Total Valence electrons = 16
2) Draw Mg as a central atom surround it by two atoms of Iodine.
3) Connect each Iodine atom to Mg, and subtract two electrons per bond. In this case we will subtract 4 electrons from total valence electrons. i.e.
Total Valence electrons 16
- Four electrons - 4
----------
12
4) Now start adding the remaining 12 electrons on more electronegative atoms i.e. Iodine.
The final lewis structure formed is as follow,

Answer: 404.04 kJ.
Explanation:
To calculate the moles, we use the equation:
moles of
According to stoichiometry :
2 moles of on burning produces = 1036 kJ
Thus 0.78 moles of on burning produces =
Thus the enthalpy change when burning 26.7 g of hydrogen sulfide is 404.04 kJ.
