"<span>H-C=N:" is the one answer among the choices given in the question that shows the correct dot diagram. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the fourth option or option "D". The other choices can be neglected. I hope that this is the answer that has come to your help.</span>

Answer :  The correct Lewis-dot diagram is shown below.

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : Lewis-dot structure shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule. Lewis-dot structure also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.  In the Lewis-dot structure, the dot represent the number of valence electrons.

The given molecule is, Hydrogen cyanide (HCN)

As we know that carbon has '4' valence electrons, hydrogen has '1' valence electron and nitrogen has '5' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in hydrogen cyanide, HCN = 1 + 4 + 5 = 10

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 10 number of bonding electrons and 0 number of non-bonding electrons.

The Lewis-dot structure of hydrogen cyanide (HCN) is shown below.

Water is flowing in a pipe with a mass flow rate of 100.0 lb/h (M water H,O=18.016). What is the (i) Molar flow rate of H20 (gmo
Arada [10]

Answer:

i) 0,7 molH20/s

ii)11,2 g O/s

iii)1,4 g H/s

Explanation:

i) To find the molar flow rate of water, we just convert the mass of water to moles of water using its molecular weight(g/mol) and changing to the proper units (lb to grames and hours to seconds):

100 \frac{lb}{h}*\frac{453,5g}{1 lb}*\frac{1molH20}{18,016g}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=0,7\frac{molH20}{s}

ii) Now we just consider the oxygen in the water stream (for 1 mole of water there is 1 mole of oxygen):

100\frac{lb}{h} *\frac{453,5g}{1lb}*\frac{1 molH20}{18,016g}*\frac{1molO}{1molH20}*\frac{16gr}{1molO}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=11,2\frac{gO}{s}

iii)Just considering the hydrogen in the stream (for 1 mole of water there is 2 moles of hydrogen):

100\frac{lb}{h} *\frac{453,5g}{1lb}*\frac{1 molH20}{18,016g}*\frac{2molH}{1molH20}*\frac{1gr}{1molH}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=1,4\frac{gH}{s}

Which of the following samples would be the most compressible?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

CO2 (g)

Explanation:

In solids the interatomic or intermolecular space is least . It is most pronounced in gases . That is why inter molecular or interatomic attraction is least in gases . That is why gas flows .

Hence , when we try to compress a gas , due to inter molecular space , it is most likely to get compressed . It will be least compressed when we try to compress a solid because of lack of intermolecular space .
