In a Lewis structure, formal charges can be assigned to each atom by treating each bond as if one-half of the electrons are assigned to each atom. ... Resonance occurs in cases where two or more Lewis structures with identical arrangements of atoms but different distributions of electrons can be written.
Below are the choices:
<span>A. Ni(CO)4(g) ⇌ Ni(s) + 4CO(g)
B. C(s) +2H2(g) ⇌ CH4(g)
C. CaCO3(s) ⇌ CaO(s) + CO2(g)
D. N2(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2 NO(g)
</span>
The answer is A. Ni(CO)4(g) ⇌ Ni(s) + 4CO(g)
<span>The Kp/Kc ratio is equal to (RT)Δn. K is a constant and the temperature is held constant. So, the Kp/Kc ratio depends on Δn or the difference of moles of gaseous product and reactant. The reaction with the greatest Kp/Kc ratio is Ni(CO)4(g) ⇌ Ni(s) + 4CO(g) with a Δn of 3.</span>
