Answer:

1 for F

4 for Si

1  for Br

2 for O

3 for P

2 for S

Explanation:

Atoms form bonds with other atoms with the purpose of completing their outer energy levels. So a good strategy of predicting how many bonds an atom will form is to first establish how many electrons it needs to complete its valence shell.

F has 7 valence electrons, it needs one more electron to complete its valence shell so it forms one bond

Si has 4 valence electrons, it needs four more so it forms four bonds

O has 6 valence electrons, it needs two more so it forms two bonds

You wash dishes for a chemistry laboratory to make extra money for laundry. You earn 12 dollars/hour, and each shift lasts 75 mi
PIT_PIT [208]
You calculate the amount of loads of laundry as follows:

((6 x 0.25)/ load) x 10 loads = 15.00 total cost required for laundry 

<span>(6.00 / 60 min) x (75 min/shift) = 7.50 cost / shift </span>

15.00 / (7.50 / shift) = 2 loads of  laundry

Hope this answers the question.

A welding torch produces a flame by burning acetylene fuel in the presence of oxygen the energy released from the acetylene fuel
Volgvan
Answer : Chemical energy to thermal energy

Explanation : When the welding torch uses the acetylene fuel for producing flame it is using the chemical acetylene to generate energy in form of light, after the flame is produced the fuel is used for melting a metal which is utilizing the thermal energy. So the ultimate final product is generated from chemical to thermal and so the energy transformation is from chemical energy to thermal energy.

A study of the decomposition reaction 3RS2  3R + 6S yields the following initial rate dat
shutvik [7]
Missing question: What is the rate constant for the reaction?
<span>[RS2](mol L-1) Rate (mol/(L·s))
0.150                0.0394
0.250                0.109
0.350                0.214
0.500                0.438</span>
Chemical reaction: 3RS₂ → 3R + 6S.
Compare second and fourth experiment, when concentration is doubled, rate of concentration is increaced by four. So rate is:
rate = k·[RS₂]².
k = 0,438 ÷ (0,500)².
k = 1,75 L/mol·s.
