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.

How is a hydrogen-1 atom different form a hydrogen-2 atom? How are they similar?
alina1380 [7]
If you’re referring to H vs H2,

H is usually found in ion form as H+

H2 is the designation for pure hydrogen gas, as it is diatomic and can only exist on its own in nature if it’s bonded to another H atom.

In this case, H is an ion and H2 is hydrogen gas

The way you wrote them out, though, indicates that they could be something different. Maybe isotopes? In this case the 1 and 2 are indicative of the amount of neutrons that the atom has.

What is the density (g/mL) of an object that has a mass of 0.03 kg and occupies a volume of 25 mL?
tatyana61 [14]
First convert the kg to g ----- 0.03kg = 30g
Then divide the mass by the volume ----- 30g ÷ 25mL = 1.2
The density is 1.2g/mL<span />
