electron dot structure

Explanation:

Chemical reactions are driven by transfer or sharing of electrons between two or more atoms. To show a specie that is reactive, a sound knowledge of the distribution of electrons in the atom is necessary.

  • The electron dot structure shows only chemical symbol of the element surrounded by dots which represents the valence electrons.
  • The chemical symbol represents the nucleus and all electrons except the valence ones.
  • The dots arranged on the four sides are called lone pairs. Those that are unpaired are called odd electrons.
  • Chlorine has 7 valence electrons in its outermost shell.
  • It is made up of 3 lone pairs and 1 odd pair of electron.
  • The odd pair accounts for the reason why chlorine is very reactive.
  • It will only require just one electron to join the odd pair so as to complete the octet and be like the noble gases.

Explain the relationship between cell, tissue and organs.
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

The body has levels of organization that build on each other. Cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs, and organs make up organ systems. The function of an organ system depends on the integrated activity of its organs.

A system gains 687 kJ of heat, resulting in a change in internal energy of the system equal to 156 kJ. How much work is done?
Maslowich

Answer:

w = -531 kJ

1. Work was done by the system.

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Heat gained by the system (q): 687 kJ (By convention, when the system absorbs heat, q > 0).
  • Change in the internal energy of the system (ΔU°): 156 kJ

Step 2: Calculate the work done (w)

We will use the following expression.

ΔU° = q + w

w = ΔU° - q

w = 156 kJ - 687 kJ

w = -531 kJ

By convention, when w < 0, work is done by the system on the surroundings.

How many moles of methane are produced when 85.1 moles of carbon dioxide gas react with excess hydrogen gas?
tino4ka555 [31]

Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, 340.0 moles  of methane are produced when 85.1 moles of carbon dioxide gas react with excess hydrogen gas

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

CO₂ + 4 H₄  → CH₄ + 2 H₂O

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • CO₂: 1 mole
  • H₄: 4 moles  
  • CH₄: 1 mole
  • H₂O: 2 moles

<h3>Moles of CH₄ formed</h3>

The following rule of three can be applied: if by reaction stoichiometry 1 mole of CO₂ form 4 moles of CH₄, 85.1 moles of CO₂ form how many moles of CH₄?

moles of CH_{4} =\frac{85.1 moles of CO_{2}x4 moles of CH_{4} }{1 moles of CO_{2}}

<u><em>moles of CH₄= 340.4 moles</em></u>

Then, 340.0 moles  of methane are produced when 85.1 moles of carbon dioxide gas react with excess hydrogen gas

How many atoms of iodine are in 12.75g of CaI2? Hint. How many Iodines are there in one CaI2 particle?
xenn [34]

Answer:

5.225x10^{22}atoms\ I

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since 12.75 g of calcium iodide has the following number of moles (molar mass = 293.89 g/mol):

n_{CaI_2}=12.75gCaI_2*\frac{1molCaI_2}{293.89gCaI_2}=0.0434molCaI_2

In such a way, since 1 mole of calcium iodide contains 2 moles of atoms of iodine, and one mole of atoms of iodine contains 6.022x10²³ atoms (Avogadro's number), we compute the resulting atoms as shown below:

atoms\ I=0.0434molCaI_2*\frac{2molI}{1molCaI_2} *\frac{6.022x10^{23}atoms\ I}{1molI} \\\\atoms\ I = 5.225x10^{22}atoms\ I

Best regards!
