Answer:

There are three dots in the Lewis dot diagram of boron atom.

Explanation:

Boron is a chemical element that belongs to the group 13 and period 2 of the periodic table. It is a p-block element having atomic number 5.

The ground state electronic configuration of boron is 1s² 2s² 2p¹. So, in the ground state, the boron atom has 3 valence electrons in the valence shell.

The Lewis dot structure represents the number of valence electrons of an atom by dots.

Therefore, there are three dots in the Lewis dot diagram of boron atom.

A student puts 0.020 mol of methyl methanoate into an empty and rigid 1.0 L vessel at 450 K. The pressure is measured to be 0.74

stellarik [79]

Explanation:

Starting moles of ethanol acid = 0.020 mol

At the equilibrium 50 % of the ethanol acid molecules reacted

∴ Moles of ethanol acid reacted = 0.020 mol * 50 %/100 %

= 0.010 mol

Moles of ethanol acid remain = 0.020 mol + 0.010 mol = 0.010 mol

Moles of the product $(CH3COOH)^{2}$ gas formed are calculated as

0.010 mol CH3COOH * 1 mol $(CH3COOH)^{2}$ / 2 mol CH3COOH

= 0.005 mol $(CH3COOH)^{2}$

Therefore at the equilibrium total moles of gas present in the vessel are 0.010 mol CH3COOH and 0.005 mol $(CH3COOH)^{2}$

That is total gas moles at equilibrium = 0.010 mol + 0.005 mol = 0.015 mol

Now Calculate the pressure :

0.020 mol gas has pressure of 0.74 atm therefore at the same condition what will be the pressure exerted by 0.015 mol gas

P1/n1 = P2/n2

P2 = P1*n2 / n1

= 0.74 atm * 0.015 mol / 0.020 mol

= 0.555 atm

Which statement correctly compares electric charge with electric current?

Arisa [49]

Answer:

Your answer would be D) They both require a movement of charged particles

Explanation:

In short terms both the charge and the current are made up of charged particles that are always moving, they constantly move to well... stay charged, if they stopped, then the charge would fade until there is nothing left, and if there is nothing left -it means there would be no electricity to use
