s of electrons are there? 3 2 5 7
1 answer:
The structure of Methanol (CH₃OH) is shown below. This structure contains 2 lone pair of electrons on oxygen (highlighted red). Electronic configuration of oxygen is,
Oxygen = 8 = 1s², 2s², 2px², 2py¹, 2pz¹
There are six electrons in valence shell of oxygen, among these six electrons two electrons are unpaired and involved in forming covalent bond with hydrogen and carbon, while remaining 4 electrons in pair (i.e. 2s², 2px²) exists as lone pairs.

Answer:
m = 50.74 kg
Explanation:
We have,
Initial temperature of water is 20 degrees Celsius
Final temperature of water is 46.6 degrees Celsius
Heat absorbed is 5650 J
It is required to find the mass of the sample. The heat absorbed is given by the formula ad follows :
c is specific heat of water, c = 4.186 J/g°C
So,
So, the mass of the sample is 50.74 kg.
