The reaction between mercury (Hg) and sulfur (S) to form HgS is:
Hg + S ------------- HgS
Therefore: 1 mole of Hg reacts with 1 mole of S to form 1 mole of HgS
The given mass of Hg = 246 g
Atomic mass of Hg = 200.59 g/mol
# moles of Hg = 246 g/ 200.59 gmol-1 = 1.226 moles
Based on the reaction stoichiometry,
# moles of S that would react = 1.226 moles
Atomic mass of S = 32 g/mol
Therefore, mass of S = 1.226 moles*32 g/mole = 39.23 g
39.2 g of sulfur would be needed to react completely with 246 g of Hg to produce HgS
Answer:
C. He shot tiny alpha particles through a piece of gold foil.
Explanation:
In the year 1911, Ernest Rutherford performed the gold foil experiment which gave a deeper perspective to the structure of an atom.
He simply collided a thin gold foil with an alpha particle which he generated from a radioactive source. He discovered that most of the alpha particles passed through the thin gold foil but a few were deflected back. His discovery led to the proposition of the nuclear model of the atom.
In a 0.01 M solution of HCl, Litmus will be red. Litmus paper will turn into red in acidic conditions. Hydrochloric acid is an acid. Litmus is an indicator for acidity and alkalinity made from inchens.
Answer :
The number of bonding pairs of electrons around the hydrogen atom = 2
The number of lone pairs of electrons around the hydrogen atom = 0
Explanation :
Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.
In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.
The given molecule is, 
As we know that carbon has '4' valence electrons, hydrogen has '1' valence electrons and nitrogen has '5' valence electrons.
Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in = 1 + 4 + 5 = 10
According to Lewis-dot structure we conclude that, there are 8 number of bonding electrons and 2 number of non-bonding electrons.
The number of bonding pairs of electrons around the hydrogen atom = 2
The number of lone pairs of electrons around the hydrogen atom = 0
