Determine the number of bonding electrons and the number of nonbonding electrons in the structure of OF2. Enter the number of bo
kvasek [131]

Answer:

(4,20)

Explanation:

Oxygen di-fluoride or OF2 is a polar molecule, formed through the covalent bonding between one Oxygen and two Fluorine atoms.

Oxygen has atomic no. 8 and its electronic configuration is as below:

  • 1s^2, 2s^2, 2p^4

Oxygen has 4 electrons in the valence shell. It has the ability to share two electrons with other atoms through covalent bond and get stable.

The atomic number of Fluorine is 7, and its electronic configuration is as:

  • 1s^2, 2s^2, 2p^5

So, Fluorine atom  has the capacity to accept 1 electron to form 1 covalent bond or in the formation of the F- ion.  

The structure of OF2 is a bent structure with O atom sandwiched by two fluorine atoms like F-O-F. So there are two electrons on oxygen atom that are taking part in the formation of covalent bond with each Fluorine atom (Please dot structure in figure).

Now we can easily calculate no of bonding and non-bonding electrons.

  • No. of bonding electrons = 4 (two from oxygen and two from fluorine atoms each)
  • No. of non-bonding electrons= 20 (6+6 from two Fluorine atoms and 6 from Oxygen atom)

Hope it helps! :)

When a person uses an iron to remove the wrinkles from a shirt why does the heat travel from iron to the shirt?
ElenaW [278]

The iron uses heat waves to flatten the shirt. You can also you water to help the process and create steam. The steam will help soften the shirt making it easier to flatten. I am not sure if this is correct but it should help to understand why the shirt gets hot.

A mixture of He, Ne, and N2 gases are a pressure of 1.348. If the pressures of He and Ne are 0.124 atm, what is the partial pres
Aleks04 [339]

The Best Answer: 1 - (.47+.23) = 0.30

If Ne has a mole fraction of 0.47 (or 47/100) and Ar is 0.23, then H2(or He) has a mole fraction of 0.30

This means the gas mixture is 30/100 H2(or He).

7.85 x 0.30 = 2.355 atm

The mass of a proton is 1.00728 amu andthat of a neutron is 1.00867 amu. What is the binding energy pernucleon (in J) of a Co nu
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

The binding energy per nucleon = 1.368*10^-12  (option D)

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

The mass of a proton is 1.00728 amu

The mass of a neutron is 1.00867 amu

The mass of a cobalt-60 nucleus is59.9338 amu

Step 2: Calculate binding energy

The mass defect = the difference between the mass of a nucleus and the total mass of its constituent particles.

Cobalt60 has 27 protons and 33 neutrons.

The mass of 27 protons = 27*1.00728 u = 27.19656 u

The mass of 33 neutrons = 33*1.00867 u = 33.28611 u

Total mass of protons + neutrons = 27.19656 u + 33.28611 u = 60.48267 u

Mass of a cobalt60 nucleus = 59.9338 amu

Mass defect = Δm = 0.54887 u

ΔE =c²*Δm

ΔE = (3.00 *10^8 m/s)² *(0.54887 amu))*(1.00 g/ 6.02 *10^23 amu)*(1kg/1000g)

Step 3: Calculate binding energy per nucleon

ΔE = 8.21 * 10^-11 J

8.21* 10^-11 J / 59.9338 = 1.368 *10^-12

The binding energy per nucleon = 1.368*10^-12  (option D)
