Answer:

Lewis Structure:

Explanation:

CO2 Lewis Structure

So CO2 = 4 + 6(2) = 16. So, total valence electrons are 16. Carbon is the least electronegative that means it stays at the center. So, put the Carbon in the middle and then set the oxygen either side of that.

Butoxors [25]

In a <u>Saturated </u>solution, the rate of dissociation equal to the rate of crystallization

Explanation:

A saturated solution is one than cannot dissolve any more solute because the solutes inter-molecular spaces are filled with the solute molecules at that temperature. When an attempt is made to dissolve more solute into the solution, the rate at which the solute is dissolved into the solution is equal to the rate at which excess solute is precipitated and crystallized.

Leokris [45]

Hydrogen is the limiting reactant because when doing a stoichiometry equation for the reactants, hydrogen will be used completely by having a smaller yield and oxygen will be excess (7 moles to be exact)
