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.

Consider the balanced chemical equation for the combustion of methane (CH4).
Mrac [35]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

                  89.6 L of O₂

<h3>Solution:</h3>

The balanced chemical equation is as,

                                CH₄  +  2 O₂    →    CO₂  +  2 H₂O

As at STP, one mole of any gas (Ideal gas) occupies exactly 22.4 L of Volume. Therefore, According to equation,

             44 g ( 1 mol) CO₂ is produced by  =  44.8 L (2 mol) of O₂

So,

                  88 g CO₂ will be produced by  = X L of O₂

Solving for X,

                        X = (88 g × 44.8 L) ÷ 44 g

                        X = 89.6 L of O₂

<h2>Question no 1:</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option A which is Sarah is correct because genetic diversity occurs over a long period of time.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Genetic diversity is a large number of allelic combinations for a trait in specie in a population.
  • Genetic diversity is caused due to mutations or random breeding in a specie.
  • It is good for the adaptation of specie in an environment, due to diverse in genotypes and phenotype of a trait.
<h2>Question number 2:</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option B which is the species will adapt to the changes.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Adaptation to an environment means changing your body in such a way to reduce the harmful affects of changing the environment on the body.
  • For example, the long and thick fur of sheeps in a snowy area will protect them from cold.
  • If the environment changes, the first thing a specie do is an adaptation to that change in the environment.
<h2>Question 3.</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option D which is, "The spines of a cactus protect it from animals".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Adaptation to an environment means changing your body in such a way to reduce the harmful affects of changing the environment on the body.
  • For example, the long and thick fur of sheeps in a snowy area will protect them from cold.
  • So the plant of cactus was in danger due to animals. So the start growing spines in response to animals.
  • Hence the correct answer is option D.
<h2>Question 4.</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option B which is, "Marie's plant will lean toward the sun so that it can get the most sunlight".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The plant will lean towards the sun light by the mechanism of phototropism.
  • Phototropism is the mechanism of growth of the plant in a specific direction in the response of light.
  • There are two types of phototropism.
  • One is a positive phototropism in which plant grows towards the light.
  • The other is negative phototropism in which plant grows away from the light.
  • In this question,the plant will do positive tropism.
<h2>Question no. 5</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option B which is, "The dodo bird could not adapt quickly to the challenges of the environment".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Adaptation to an environment means changing your body in such a way to reduce the harmful affects of changing the environment on the body.
  • For example, the long and thick fur of sheeps in a snowy area will protect them from cold.
  • So the dodo could not adopt to the environment. For the positive adaption of survival, they should be afraid of sailors but the would not afraid of a sailor.
  • Due to which they went extinct.

Write the balanced chemical equation between H2SO4 and KOH in aqueous solution. This is called a neutralization reaction and wil
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

0.166M

Explanation:

In a neutralization, the acid, H₂SO₄, reacts with a base, KOH, to produce a salt, K₂SO₄ and water. The reaction is:

H₂SO₄ + 2KOH → K₂SO₄ + 2H₂O

To solve this problem, we need to determine moles of H2SO4 and moles of KOH that reacts to find the moles of sulfuric acid that remains after the reaction:

<em>Moles H2SO4:</em>

0.650L * (0.430mol /L) = 0.2795moles H2SO4

<em>Moles KOH:</em>

0.600L * (0.240mol / L) = 0.144 moles KOH

Moles of sulfuric acid that reacts with 0.144 moles of KOH are:

0.144 moles KOH * (1mol H2SO4 / 2 mol KOH) = 0.072 moles of H2SO4 react.

And remain:

0.2795moles H2SO4 - 0.072moles H2SO4 = 0.2075 moles of H2SO4 reamains.

In 0.650L + 0.600L = 1.25L:

Molar concentration of sulfuric acid:

0.2075 moles of H2SO4 / 1.25L =

What elements can on with other elements to form covalent bonds
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Non metals join to form covalent bond.

Explanation:

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.

Both atoms bonded through covalent bond.

In Cl₂ both chlorine atoms are bonded through the covalent bond.

Write the balanced neutralization reaction that occurs between h2so4 and koh in aqueous solution. Phases are optional.
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

H₂SO₄ = sulphuric acid

KOH = potassium hydroxide

This is a neutralization reaction

                       H₂SO₄   +  2 KOH   ⇒     K₂SO₄   +  2H₂O

                                 2 -----------   K  ----------- 2

                                 1 -----------   S  ----------  1

                                 4 ----------   H  ---------   4

                                6 ------------   O ----------  6
