Answer:
Resonance structures are represented in the picture below.
Explanation:
When there is a double pair of electrons shared between atoms in a molecule, the position of these electrons can be changed, without changing the molecule conformation. This occurs to stabilization, the electrons are relocated. These structures are called resonance structures.
In the molecule of NO₂F, nitrogen has 5 electrons in its valence shell, so it needs 3 electrons to be stable. Oxygen has 6 electrons and needs 2 to be stable, and fluor has 7 electrons and needs one electron to be stable.
Nitrogen still has electrons after the sharing, so it can also share one pair and will have a partial positive charge. One of the oxygens will not complete the octet, so will share only one pair f electron and will have a partial negative charge, that will compensate the positive charge in nitrogen.
The two resonance structures are shown below:
Answer:
15.2 grams of calcium chloride are produced and HCl is the limiting reactant.
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the described scenario, it is possible to realize that the reaction between hydrochloric acid and calcium hydroxide is:
Whereas there is a 2:1 mole ratio of the acid to the base. In such a way, with the given masses, we can compute how much calcium chloride product is produced due to the chemical reaction via stoichiometry:
Whereas we infer that the correct amount is 15.2 g since HCl is the limiting reactant as it produces the fewest grams of the desired product. Consequently, the calcium hydroxide is the excess reactant here.
