Answer:

Damian here!! :))

The carbon family consists of the elements carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), tin (Sn), lead (Pb), and flerovium (Fl). Atoms of elements in this group have four valence electrons. The carbon family is also known as the carbon group, group 14, or the tetrels. Elements in this family are of key importance for semiconductor technology.

By what factor would the average kinetic energy of the particles by increased if the temperature of a substance was increased fr

natita [175]

Average kinetic energy of a particle :
0.5 mv^2 = kT/2
so the kinetic energy = kT/2
assuming the same value of K
T1 = -49 + 273 = 224
T2 = 287 + 273 = 560

E2 / E1 = kT2 / 2 / kT1 / 2
E2 / E1 = T2 / T1
E2 / E1 = 560 / 224 = 2.5
so the average kinetic energy of the particle increases by 2.5

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

(a) The lewis structure for methylisocyanate is in the attached.

(b) The carbonyl carbon have an sp² hybridization

Explanation:

(a) The lewis structure for methylisocyanate has the nitrogen with one lone pair and the oxygen with two lone pairs.

(b) The carbonyl carbon form double bond with the oxygen causing to form three hybrid orbitals sp².

The Nitrogen also forms a double bond with the carbon having an sp² hybridization too.
