Answer:

The answer to your question is given below

Explanation:

1. When two hydrogen atoms pair together, they form a single bond to achieve complete duet.

Hydrogen atom has 1 shell and 1 valence electron and they contribute it to form bond, thereby obtaining a stable duet configuration

H + H —> H–H —> H2

2. When two halogen atom pair together, they form a single bond to achieve a complete octet which is stable. For example, Cl has 7 electrons in its outermost shell and need 1 more electron to complete it octet. Each Cl will contribute 1 electron each to form a single bond..

Cl + Cl —> Cl–Cl —>Cl2

3. When two oxygen atoms pair together, they form double bond to achieve a complete octet which is a stable configuration.

Oxygen has 6 electrons in its outermost shell and needs 2 more electrons to complete its octet configuration. Each oxygen atom will contribute 2 electrons each to form a double in order to complete it octet configuration.

O + O —> O=O —>O2

4. When two nitrogen atom pair together, they form a triple bond to achieve a complete octet which is stable. Nitrogen has 5 electrons in its outermost shell and needs 3 more electrons to complete it octet configuration. Each nitrogen atom will contribute 3 electrons each to form a triple bond in order to complete its octet configuration.

N + N —> N≡N —> N2.

Consider the following chemical reaction:
laiz [17]

Answer:

B. 1.65 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

2 SO₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇒ 2 SO₃(g)

Step 2: Calculate the moles of SO₂

The pressure of the gas is 1.20 atm and the temperature 25 °C (298 K). We can calculate the moles using the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

n = P × V / R × T

n = 1.20 atm × 1.50 L / (0.0821 atm.L/mol.K) × 298 K = 0.0736 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of SO₃ produced

0.0736 mol SO₂ × 2 mol SO₃/2 mol SO₂ = 0.0736 mol SO₃

Step 4: Calculate the volume occupied by 0.0736 moles of SO₃ at STP

At STP, 1 mole of an ideal gas occupies 22.4 L.

0.0736 mol × 22.4 L/1 mol = 1.65 L

Beryllium oxide, Beo, is an electrical insulator. How
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

There are 10.0 moles of beryllium oxide in a 250 grams sample of the compound.

Explanation:

We can calculate the number of moles (η) of BeO as follows:

\eta = \frac{m}{M}

Where:

m: is the mass = 250 g

M: is the molar mass = 25.0116 g/mol

Hence, the number of moles is:

\eta = \frac{250 g}{25.0116 g/mol} = 10.0 moles

Therefore, there are 10.0 moles of beryllium oxide in a 250 grams sample of the compound.  

I hope it helps you!
