Answer:
6
Explanation:
p orbital can hold up to six electron. Argon electron configuration will be 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶
1. Find its coordination figure/coordination number of central atom (CF)
Ev = Vallence electron of central atom
Σe = electrons donated from substituents
Terminal O gives 0 electrons, hence Σe = 3 x 0
charge = charge of the compound
2. Find EP (electron pairs) and LP (lone pairs)
LP = CF - EP
3. Draw the skeleton with octet substituents (top right figure)
4. Find formal charge for each atoms (Qf)
5. Write formal charge near atom in skeleton
6. Enjoy
Yes. Heating up the solvent gives the molecules more kinetic energy. The more rapid motion means that the solvent molecules collide with the solute with greater frequency and the collisions occur with more force. Both factors increase the rate at which the solute dissolves.
The reaction for what was describe in the problem is:
N₂ + 3 O₂ --> 2 NO₃
The reactants involved are nitrogen and oxygen gas. From the word itself, oxygen is an oxidizing agent. <em>Therefore, this reaction is an oxidation reaction due to the presence of the oxidizing agent.</em>
