Formal Charge is calculated as, Lewis structure is attached below,

Formal Charge = [# of valence electrons] - [electrons in lone pairs + 1/2 the number of bonding electrons]

# of valence electrons of Cl = 7

electrons in lone pairs = 4

number of bonding electrons = 6

Formal Charge = [7] - [4 + 6/2]

Formal Charge = [7] - [4 + 3]

Formal Charge = [7] - [7]

Formal Charge = 0

Result:
Formal charge on Cl in ClF₃ is zero.

Nitrogen gas is being withdrawn at the rate of 4.5 g/s from a 0.15-m3 cylinder, initially containing the gas at a pressure of 10

faust18 [17]

Answer:

Final temperature = 152.57K,

Pressure = 0.6907 bar.

dT/dt = - 1,151 K/s.

Explanation:

The first thing to do here is to write out the equation for mass balance as given below:

dN/dt = N -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------(1).

N = P/T, then, substitute the values given in the question into:

d[p/T]/ dt = [- 4.5/28 × 8.314]/0.15 = - 8.9 × 10⁻⁵ bar/K.s.

Thus, there is the need to integrate, Integrate [p/T]f = 10/320 - 8.9 × 10⁻⁵ bar/K.s. ------------------------------------(2).

NB; fT = final temperature, fP = final pressure and iT = initial temperature.

Also, [ fT]³⁰/₈.₃₁₄/ [fP] = [iT]³⁰/₈.₃₁₄/ Pi] = [ 320]³⁰/₈.₃₁₄/ 10.

Therefore, [fT]³⁰/₈.₃₁₄ = 109.52 × 10⁶.

Final temperature= [fP]³⁰/₈.₃₁₄ × 169.05.

Note that fP/ [fP]³⁰/₈.₃₁₄ × 169.05 = 10/320 - 8.9 × 10⁻⁵.

Therefore, [fP]¹ ⁻ ³⁰/₈.₃₁₄ = 0.7651.

Hence, Final temperature = 152.57K,

Pressure = 0.6907 bar

dT/ dt = N[RT]² / Cv . PV.

R = 30 - 8.314 = 21.86 J/mol K.

Then, the rate of change of the gas temperature at this time = dT/dt = - 1,151 K/s.

How is North Carolina Central in the jet stream is above the state

xeze [42]

North Carolina winter weather evolves from complex meteorological patterns that are difficult to forecast, and which lead to considerable variability in weather conditions across the state. As a result, the frequency and intensity of winter weather events are highly variable and dependent upon large (synoptic) and small (mesoscale) scale atmospheric patterns.

The jet stream is a narrow band of strong winds in the upper atmosphere. In winter, it separates cold, Arctic air masses from warmer, continental air masses. Certain regions of the jet are also favorable for storm development, while others are not.<span>The orientation and location of the jet stream has large implications on the weather year-round, but even more so in winter because the jet stream is stronger due to a large temperature contrast from the north to south.

i know nothing about science but then it just comes to me and i get it right.
