4 0

Answer:

Lone pairs and bonding pairs  

Explanation:

The electron domain around the central atom includes

  • All lone pairs on the central atom
  • All bonding pairs between the central atom and the atoms directly attached to it

Double and triple bonds count as single domains.

Thus, the nitrite ion has three electron domains:

  1. A lone pair
  2. An N-O single bond
  3. An N-O double bond

Difference between---<br> soap and detergent
guapka [62]

Answer:

"Soaps are made from natural ingredients, such as plant oils (coconut, vegetable, palm, pine) or acids derived from animal fat. Detergents, on the other hand, are synthetic, man-made derivatives. While soap is limited in its applications, detergents can be formulated to include other ingredients for all sorts of cleaning purposes. Perhaps the most common and versatile of these ingredients are surfactants … surface active agents.

The main difference between soap and detergent is the ingredients. Soaps are made with biodegradable ingredients such as oils, lye and fats. ... Both clean clothes well, but detergents are more effective on stains and with brightening clothes. However, soap is kinder on the environment and skin. "

Hope this helps
