Answer:
There are no unpaired electrons.
Explanation:
There are no unpaired electrons in the Lewis symbol for a nitride ion(
).The nitride ion has a charge of -3. The negative charge on the Nitride ion indicates a gain in electrons . Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons that is the number of electrons that are in its outer shell .The total number of electrons that the nitride ion has is equal to 5+3 = 8 electrons . Electrons usually appear in pairs and obey the octet rule therefore the nitride ion has four electron pairs no unpaired electrons.
Explanation:
By losing or gaining electrons from its outermost orbit
Mass of water produced : 0.146 g
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
33.2 mL of 0.245 M lithium hydroxide
Required
mass of water
Solution
Reaction
HNO₃ (aq) + LiOH (aq) → H₂O (l) + LiNO₃ (aq)
mol LiOH :
= M x V
= 0.245 x 33.2 ml
= 8.134 mmol
From the equation, the mol ratio of HNO₃ : H₂O = 1 : 1, so mol H₂O = 8.134 mmol
mass H₂O :
= mol x MW
= 8.134 x 10⁻³ mol x 18 g/mol
= 0.146 g
