How many electrons does carbon lack in its outer shell? biochemistry

Chemistry
1 answer:
tekilochka [14]3 years ago
7 0
A neutral carbon doesn't lack any electrons. It has exactly the same number of electrons as it has neutrons.
However, it has four electrons in its outer shell in comparison with eight electrons for a noble gas.
In that sense, it needs four electrons to complete its second shell.<span />

Using the equation, C5H12 + 8O2 Imported Asset 5CO2 + 6H2O, if 2 moles of pentane (C5H12) were supplied, and an unlimited amount
Kamila [148]

12 moles of water H₂O are produced from the combustion of pentane.

Explanation:

We have the following combustion of pentane (C₅H₁₂):

C₅H₁₂ + 8 O₂ → 5 CO₂ + 6 H₂O

Knowing the chemical reaction we devise the following reasoning:

if         1 moles of pentane C₅H₁₂ produces 6 moles of water H₂O

then    2 moles of pentane C₅H₁₂ produces X moles of water H₂O

X = (2 × 6) / 1 = 12 moles of water H₂O

a regular solid has a length of 28cm. , a width of 16cm. and a total surface area of 1424cm squared. What is the total surface a
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

A = 356 cm²

Explanation:

In this case, you need to use the formula to calculate the area of  regular solid.

This is the following expression:

S = 2LH + 2LW + 2WH

Where:

L: length

W: Width

H: Height

But we do not know the height of the solid. We should calculate it with the given data first:

1424 = 2*28*H + 2*28*16 + 2*16*H

1424 = 56H + 896 + 32H

1424 - 896 = 88H

H = 528/88

<em>H = 6 cm</em>

Now that we know the height we can calculate the area of the other solid. In the other solid the length has been reduced to half, so I will assume that the Width and height is also reduced to half.

L2 = 14 cm

W2 = 8 cm

H2 = 3 cm

Replacing we have:

S = (2*14*3) + (2*14*8) + (2*8*3)

<u>S = 356 cm²</u>

<u>And this should be the total surface area, assuming the width and height is reduced to half too.</u>

If you don't assume it's reduced to half, then use the original values of Width and Height. Doing so, the Surface would be:

S = (2*14*6) + (2*14*16) + (2*6*16)

S = 808 cm²
