Answer:

One lone-Pair is present in Ammonia

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, remaining two electron are left non-bonded . 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.

Consider the following reaction:

Your limiting is CuCI2 and the excess is KI (from what i’ve heard from my tc to find it just use the moles or look at the grams)Do you want me to do the qn and give u the ans or?

Explanation:You have more grams of KI than CuCI2
irl example : I need 200g of flour to bake 1 muffin and 100g of butter.But I have 300g of butter and only 200g of flour.This means I can only bake up to 1 muffin since I got excess grams of butter.But to use up all my 300g of butter I need 400g more of flour.Making my butter the excess while my flour the limiting since I have less of it and it also determines how much muffin would I get at the end of the bake.

im sorry if that example sounds clowny T-T

Can some please answer these two questions?

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

1. Mass of potassium (K) = 203.32 g

2. Number of mole of As = 7.53 moles

Explanation:

1. Determination of the mass of potassium (K)

Molar mass of K = 39.1 g/mol

Number of mole of K = 5.2 moles

Mass of K =.?

Mole = mass / Molar mass

5.2 = mass of K / 39.1

Cross multiply

Mass of K = 5.2 × 39.1

Mass of potassium (K) = 203.32 g

2. Determination of the number of mole of Arsenic (As)

Molar mass of As = 74.92 g/mol

Mass of As = 563.9 g

Number of mole of As =.?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

Number of mole of As = 563.9 / 74.92

Number of mole of As = 7.53 moles

1) When elements combine to form compounds:

vodomira [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

when elements reacts to form a compound the elements properties changes completely. This happens due to the fact that a chemical reaction has taken place. In a chemical change new substances are formed and the properties of the products differ entirely from that of the reactant.

for example if hydrogen combines with oxygen to form water, the property of hydrogen differs from oxygen and also both differs chemically when compared to water.
