The Lewis dot model of a molecule is shown. A visual diagram of a PCl3 molecule is shown. Phosphorous is the central atom with a

horizontal line connecting to each of the three Chlorine atoms around it. Phosphorous has a pair of dots on it. Each of the three chlorine atoms have a pair of three dots on it. Based on the model, which of the following is true?
( a. The electronegativity difference between phosphorous and chlorine is greater than 1.7.

( b. Each chlorine has three non-bonded pairs and one bonded pair of electrons.

( c. Phosphorous has three non-bonded pairs and one bonded pair of electrons.

( d. Phosphorous has three valence electrons in the outermost energy level.

Answer:

b. Each chlorine has three non-bonded pairs and one bonded pair of electrons.

Explanation:

Chlorine has three valance electrons. Each Cl atom forms a single covalent bond with the central P atom by sharing a pair of electrons. After forming a single covalent bond each Cl atom is left with six electrons that do not participate in any bond formation or there are three pairs of lone electrons.

An aqueous solution of ammonia is found to be basic. This observation can be explained by the net ionic equationHNO3(aq) + H2O(l
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

NH_3_{(aq)}+H_2O_{(l)}\rightarrow NH_4^+_{(aq)}+OH^-_{(aq)}

Explanation:

Bases are the species which furnish hydroxide ions in the solution or is capable of forming bonds with electron deficient species as they are electron rich species. When a base accepts a proton, it changes into a acid which is known as its conjugate acid.

Net ionic equation : In the net ionic equations, we are not include the spectator ions in the equations.  Only the species which are present in aqueous state dissociate. So, the net ionic equation of aqueous solution of ammonia is shown below as:-

NH_3_{(aq)}+H_2O_{(l)}\rightarrow NH_4^+_{(aq)}+OH^-_{(aq)}

Potassium iodide reacts with lead(II) nitrate in this precipitation reaction: 2 KI(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) → 2 KNO3(aq) + PbI2(s) Wha
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

a. 174 mL

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

2 KI(aq) + Pb(NO₃)₂(aq) → 2 KNO₃(aq) + PbI₂(s)

We have 155.0 mL of a 0.112 M lead(II) nitrate solution. The moles of Pb(NO₃)₂ are:

0.1550 L × 0.112 mol/L = 0.0174 mol

The molar ratio of KI to Pb(NO₃)₂ is 2:1. The moles of KI are:

2 × 0.0174 mol = 0.0348 mol

The volume of a 0.200 M KI solution that contains 0.0348 moles is:

0.0348 mol × (1 L / 0.200 mol) = 0.174 L = 174 mL

78.9 + 890.43 - 21 = 9.5 x 10^2
maria [59]

948 or 9.48 x 10^2

There are two sets of rules for significant figures

• One set for addition and subtraction

• Another set for multiplication and division

You used the set for multiplication and division.

This problem involves addition and subtraction, and the rule is

The number of places after the decimal point in the answer must be <em>no greater than the number of decimal places in every term</em> in the sum.

Thus, we have

78.9

+890.43

-21.

= 948.33

The "21" term has the fewest digits after the decimal point (none), so the answer must have no digits after the decimal point.

To the correct answer is 948 = 9.48 x 10^2. It has three significant figures.
