Answer:

<u>One lone-Pair is present in Ammonia</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

The number of valence electron in N = 5

The number of Valence electron in H = 1

The formula of ammonia = NH3

Total valence electron in ammonia molecule = 5 +3(1) = 5+3 = 8

The lewis structure suggest that :

Nitrogen completes its octet by sharing the electron pair with 3 hydrogen atoms.

3 electron of Nitrogen are involved in sharing with Hydrogen

So,<u><em> remaining two electron are left non-bonded</em></u> . Hence they exist as lone- pair

So, there is only 1 lone pair in the ammonia molecule .

The shape of NH3 is bent according to VSEPR theory . This is so because the presence of 1 lone pair causes more repulsion and occupy more space.

Thus the lone pair is changing the shape of the ammonia molecule . It also increase the dipole moment of the molecule , which gives polarity to it.

One way to determine the degree of saturation of a solid-liquid solution is to drop a crystal of the solute into the solution.
Dafna1 [17]

The answer is D: Saturated.

A saturated solution is one in which the exact maximum amount of solute has been dissolved.  So, new solute will not dissolve in the solution.  In contrast, an unsaturated solution can hold more solute, so if that option were correct, the crystal would have dissolved.

The other two terms are a bit more complicated.  A supersaturated solution is one holding an amount of solute above the sustainable limit.  Because of that, when more solute is added, the solution will immediately adjust, and some solute will come out of solution in a precipitate.  Because the crystal isn't growing, we can eliminate this option.

A concentrated solution is one holding a relatively large amount of solute.  However, you can have concentrated solutions that are saturated and unconcentrated (the word for this is dilute) solutions that aren't saturated.  Therefore, we can say that because the crystal doesn't dissolve, this solution is saturated, but we can't say with certainty that it is concentrated.

Because the first three options are invalid, as described above, while the scenario does describe a saturated solution, D is the correct answer.

-Dominant- [34]

Answer : One mole of an ideal gas  occupies a volume of 22.4  liters at STP.

Explanation :

As we know that 1 mole of substance occupies 22.4 liter volume of gas at STP conditions.

STP stands for standard temperature and pressure condition.

At STP, pressure is 1 atm and temperature is 273 K.

By using STP conditions, we get the volume of 22.47 liter.

Hnece, the one mole of an ideal gas  occupies a volume of 22.4  liters at STP.
