To illustrate the Lewis structure,
P has 5 valence electrons
O has 6 valence electrons (each for 4 oxygen)
And finally, for every negative charge, there is an additional valence electron
We should add these all up = 5 + 24 + 3 = 32 valence electrons
With this, we can be guided to illustrate the lewis structure as P as central atom and the 3 oxygen each with a single bond with P and 1 oxygen with a double bond with P. We place the valence electrons until octet rule is satisfied,
we will be left with 12 lone pairs for phosphate ion.
Answer:
I'm so sorry I would love to help you but I have no idea
Covalent
A covalent bond is the bond where electrons are shared. This occurs between two non mental. N is nitrogen and O is oxygen, therefore NO would be a bond between two non metals. So it must be covalent.
well according to what i know....headlights only let you see about 350 feet ahead...hope it helps :)
Metal conductivity generally goes down or resistivity goes up with temperature goes up.
