AlladinOne [14]3 years ago
6 0

Formal charge can be calculated from the following formula

Formal charge = valency of central atom - (number of lone pair of electrons + number of covalent bonds)

a) for methylene:

Formal charge = 4 -( 2+ 2) = 0

b) For methyl free radical

Formal charge = 4- (3 +1) = 0

A 45 mL sample of nitrogen gas is cooled from 135ºC to 15C in a container that can contract or expand at constant pressure. Wha
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

V₂ =31.8 mL

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial  volume of gas = 45 mL

Initial temperature = 135°C (135+273 =408 K)

Final temperature = 15°C (15+273 =288 K)

Final volume of gas = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve through the Charles Law.

According to this law, The volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₂ = V₁T₂/T₁  

V₂ = 45 mL × 288 K / 408 k

V₂ = 12960 mL.K / 408 K

V₂ =31.8 mL

A serving of Frosted Flakes cereal contains 235,000 J of energy. Calculate the change in temperature (ΔT) that would occur if th
timama [110]

The change in temperature (ΔT) : 56.14 ° C

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Cereal energy = 235,000 J

mass of water = 1000 g

Required

the change in temperature (ΔT)

Solution

Heat can be formulated :

Q = m . c . ΔT

c = specific heat for water =  4.186 J / gram ° C

235000 = 1000 . 4.186 . ΔT

\tt \Delta T=\dfrac{235000}{1000\times 4.186}=56.14^oC
