Carbon has four valence electrons. These electrons are associated for a specific atom and is responsible for forming a bond to different atoms. For carbon, in order to agree with the octet rule, it should have 4 more electrons. For an oxygen atom, there are 6 valence electrons present so it would need two more electrons. Thus, carbon atoms would share electrons with another two oxygen atoms wherein each oxygen atom would form double bonds with the carbon atom. So, the characteristics of these bonds would be that all of the four valence electrons of the carbon are being shared.

if three oxygen particles are needed to form ozone, how many units of ozone could be formed from 6 oxygen particles? from 9? fro
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
<h3>Answers:</h3>

             1) 2 Units of Ozone

             2)  3 Units of Ozone

              3)  9 Units of Ozone

<h3>Solution:</h3>

1)  From 6 Oxygen Particles;

As given,

                          3 Oxygen Particles form  =  1 Unit of Ozone

So,

                      6 Oxygen Particles will form  =  X Units of Ozone

Solving for X,

                      X =  (6 O Particles × 1 Unit of Ozone) ÷ 3 O Particles

                      X =  2 Units of Ozone

2) From 9 Oxygen Particles;

As given,

                           3 Oxygen Particles form  =  1 Unit of Ozone

So,

                      9 Oxygen Particles will form  =  X Units of Ozone

Solving for X,

                      X =  (9 O Particles × 1 Unit of Ozone) ÷ 3 O Particles

                      X =  3 Units of Ozone

3)  From 27 Oxygen Particles;

As given,

                             3 Oxygen Particles form  =  1 Unit of Ozone

So,

                      27 Oxygen Particles will form  =  X Units of Ozone

Solving for X,

                      X =  (27 O Particles × 1 Unit of Ozone) ÷ 3 O Particles

                      X =  9 Units of Ozone

calculate the heat required in joules to convert 18.0 grams of water ice at a temperature of -20 c to liquid water at the normal
KIM [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Heat required to convert ice to ice at 0⁰C

= mass x specific heat x rise in temperature

= 18 x 2.09 x 20

= 752.4 J .

heat required to convert ice at 0⁰C to water at 0⁰C

mass x latent heat of fusion

= 18 x 336

= 6048 J

Heat required to increase the temperature of water to 100⁰C

= 18 x 4.2 x 100

= 7560 J

Total heat required

7560 + 6048 + 752.4

= 14360.4 J
