Answer:

Two equivalent resonance forms can be drawn

Explanation:

In Lewis structure, total valence electrons of constituting atoms are used to draw structure by obeying octet of all atoms and duet of hydrogen atoms.

Least electronegative atom (except hydrogen atom) are considered as central atom.

In SO_{2}, S is the least electronegative atom. Hence it is the central atom.

Number of valence electron of S is 6 and valence electron of O is 6.

So, total number of valence electrons in SO_{2} is 18.

By using this 18 electrons and obeying octet for S and O, two equivalent resonance forms can be drawn.

Structure of resonance forms has been given below.

fredd [130]

Answer:

a. CH3NH2(aq) + H⁺ → CH3NH3⁺

Explanation:

The mixture of a weak base as CH3NH2 with its conjugate acid CH3NH3Cl produce a buffer. As the weak acid is in equilibrium with water, the mixture of the weak base and its conjugate base produce that the acid or base released react avoiding the change in pH.

For example, when a strong acid as HNO3 reacts, the weak base will react producing the conjugate base, that is:

CH3NH2(aq) + H⁺ → CH3NH3⁺

Right answer is:

<h3>a. CH3NH2(aq) + H⁺ → CH3NH3⁺</h3>

A cylinder with a moving piston expands from an initial volume of 0.350 L against an external pressure of 1.90 atm. The expansio
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

1.84 L

Explanation:

Using the equation for reversible work:

W = -P*(V_{2} - V_{1})

Where:

W is the work done (J) = -287 J.

Since the gas did work, therefore W is negative.

P is the pressure in atm = 1.90 atm.

However, work done is in joules and pressure is in atm. We can use the values of universal gas constant as a convenient conversion unit. R = 8.314 J/(mol*K);  R = 0.0821 (L*atm)/(mol*K)

Therefore, the conversion unit is 0.0821/8.314 = 0.00987 (L*atm)/J

V_{1} is the initial volume = 0.350 L

V_{2} is the final volume = ?

Thus:

(-287 J)*0.00987 (L*atm)/J = -1.9 atm*(V_{2} - 0.350) L

V_{2} = [(287*0.00987)+(1.9*0.350)]/1.9 = (2.833+0.665)/1.9 =1.84 L
