Draw the best Lewis structure for CH 3 -1. What is the formal charge on the C?

Chemistry
1 answer:
djyliett [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer :  The formal charge on the C is, (-1) charge.

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, CH_3^{-1}

As we know that carbon has '4' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electron.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in CH_3^{-1} = 4 + 3(1) + 1 = 8

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 6 number of bonding electrons and 2 number of non-bonding electrons.

Now we have to determine the formal charge on carbon atom.

Formula for formal charge :

\text{Formal charge}=\text{Valence electrons}-\text{Non-bonding electrons}-\frac{\text{Bonding electrons}}{2}

\text{Formal charge on C}=4-2-\frac{6}{2}=-1

The formal charge on the C is, (-1) charge.

Substance A has the following properties.
ella [17]

It will take 1.11 min to heat the sample to its melting point.

Melting point = - 20°C

Boiling point = 85°C

∆H of fusion = 180 J/g

∆H of vap = 500 J/g

C(solid) = 1.0 J/g °C

C(liquid) = 2.5 J/g °C

C(gas) = 0.5 J/g °C

Mass of sample = 25 g

Initial temperature = - 40°C

Final temperature = 100°C

Rate of heating = 450 J/min

Specific heat capacity formula:- q = m ×C×∆T

Here, q = heat energy

        m = mass

        C = specific heat

      ∆T = temperature change

Melting point = - 20°C

C(solid) = 1.0 J/g °C

∆T = final temperature - initial temperature = -20 - (-40) = 20

Put these value in  Specific heat capacity formula

q = m ×C×∆T

q = 25×1.0×20

   =500J

The Rate of heating = 450 J/min

i.e. 450J = 1min

so, 500J = 1.11min

1.11 minutes does it take to heat the sample to its melting point.

The specific heat capacity is defined as the amount of heat absorbed in line with unit mass of the material whilst its temperature increases 1 °C.

Which of the following is TRUE? A) The equivalence point is where the amount of acid equals the amount of base during any acid-b
liberstina [14]

Answer:

the correct option is B

Explanation:

The correct option is b, since if we reach pH 7, it means that the acid-base reaction is neutralized, therefore the base has been neutralized by an acid or vice versa, without taking into account the proteins or the amounts of both components .
