Answer:
The structures shown by dots and lines to give the exact number of electrons in the outer most shell is explained by Lewis Structures.
Explanation:
Lewis structures are those structures in which the diagram is shown using the electron representation. They are easy to understand as the diagram completely depicts where the electrons are shared and where they are transferred. The diagram also explains where there is a single bond and where there is a di covalent bond or tri covalent bond explaining where the single , double or triple electron pair is shared. The electrons are shown by dots or lines.
For example CCl₄ can be shown as follows
..
.. Cl..
.. ..
..Cl..----------C----------..Cl..
..
.. Cl..
The picture shows that each chlorine has six electrons in its outer shell and then a pair of electron is shared with carbon forming a single covalent bond.
Similarly methane CH4 can also be shown.
The hydrogen has one electron and it shares an electron from carbon stabilising itself forming methane.
In order for you to calculate
for the mass of ammonium carbonate, you need to know the molar mass of it and
the nitrogen atoms in the compound. Ammonium carbonate has a molar mass of
96.08 grams per mole. There are two nitrogen atoms in ammonium carbonate which
is equal to 28.02 grams per mole. Divide the molar mass of nitrogen to the
ammonium carbonate, 28.02/96.08 x 100, we get 29.16wt% nitrogen.
Answer:
Its quite vague, instead you could say an atom is the smallest building block which further consists of subatomic particles like protons, neutrons and electrons :)
Hope thi helps :) and I'd appreciate if you'd mark brainliest because ive been stuck on the same rank for quite a long time :(
A. true

Answer:
2.9 g
Explanation:
There is some info missing. I think this is the original question.
<em>Ammonium perchlorate is the solid rocket fuel used by the U.S. Space Shuttle. It reacts with itself to produce nitrogen gas, chlorine gas, oxygen gas, water, and a great deal of energy.
</em>
<em>What mass of water is produced by the reaction of </em><em>9.6 g</em><em> of ammonium perchlorate?</em>
<em />
Step 1: Given data
Mass of ammonium perchlorate: 9.6 g
Step 2: Write the balanced equation
2 NH₄ClO₄(s) → N₂(g) + Cl₂(g) + 2 O₂(g) + 4 H₂O(l)
Step 3: Calculate the moles corresponding to 9.6 g of ammonium perchlorate
The molar mass of ammonium perchlorate is 117.49 g/mol.

Step 4: Calculate the moles of water formed from 0.082 moles of ammonium perchlorate
The molar ratio of NH₄ClO₄ to H₂O is 2:4. The moles of water formed are 4/2 × 0.082 mol = 0.16 mol
Step 5: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.16 moles of water
The molar mass of water is 18.02 g/mol.
