<u>Answer:</u> The pair of valence electrons that do not participate in the bonding are lone pairs.

<u>Explanation:</u>

There are 2 types of pair of electrons that are studied in the bonding. They are:

  • <u>Bonding pairs:</u> These pair of electrons participate in the bond formation. They exist as bonds in a molecule. They are also known as bond pairs.
  • <u>Non-bonding pairs:</u> These pair of electrons do not participate in the bond formation. They exist as lone pairs in a molecule.

Oxygen is the 8th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of 1s^22s^22p^4

Number of valence electrons = (2 + 4) = 6

Oxygen needs 2 electrons to complete its octet. When another oxygen combines, they share 2 electrons each forming a double bond.

The Lewis dot structure of oxygen molecule is given below.

Hence, the pair of valence electrons that do not participate in the bonding are lone pairs.

Answer:

Nonbonding pairs of electrons.

Explanation:

Both oxygen atoms in the diatomic molecule have two nonbonding pairs. This results in the oxygen molecule having a planar geometric shape. This is because nonbonding pairs repel each other are significant in determining the shape of a molecule.

The density of solid Cr is 7.15 g/cm3. How many atoms are present per cubic centimeter of Cr?
Masja [62]
To calculate the number of atoms of Cr, we first find the number of moles per unit of cubic centimeter of Cr. Then, use avogadros number for the number of atoms. Calculations are as follows:

1 cm^3 (7.15 g/cm^3) (1 mol / 51.996 g Cr) = 0.14 mol Cr

0.14 mol Cr ( 6.022 x 10^23 atoms Cr / 1 mol Cr ) = 8.28 x 10^22 atoms Cr

Which of the following situations contains an example of a chemical reaction?
bogdanovich [222]

A bicycle rusting after it is left in the rain is an example of a chemical reaction because it involves oxidation (Option d).  

<h3>What is a chemical reaction?</h3>

A chemical reaction can be defined as a phenomenon in which one or more substances called reactants react to form one or more different compounds, which are known as products.

A chemical reaction may include an enzyme that works to increase the seed of the reaction in normal conditions by lowering the activation energy of the reaction.

Therefore, we can conclude that a chemical reaction such as oxidation in a bicycle is a process where reactants combine or break down to form the products of such reaction.

Complete question:

Which of the following situations contains an example of a chemical reaction?

a. Ice forming after water is placed in a freezer

b. Watercolor paint drying on paper

c. a sugar cube dissolving in a glass of water

d. a bicycle rusting after it is left in the rain

How many moles of PC15 can be produced from 51.0 g of Cl2 (and excess P4)?
slava [35]

Answer:

0.287 mole of PCl5.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 51g of Cl2. This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of Cl2 = 2 x 35.5 = 71g/mol

Mass of Cl2 = 51g

Number of mole of Cl2 =..?

Mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Number of mole of Cl2 = 51/71 = 0.718 mole

Next, we shall write the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

P4 + 10Cl2 → 4PCl5

Finally, we determine the number of mole of PCl5 produced from the reaction as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

10 moles of Cl2 reacted to produce 4 moles of PCl5.

Therefore, 0.718 mole of Cl2 will react to produce = (0.718 x 4)/10 = 0.287 mole of PCl5.

Therefore, 0.287 mole of PCl5 is produced from the reaction.
