VESPR (<span>Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion) is used to determine the shape of the molecules based on their number of electron pairs and how they interact with each other via repulsion. Different numver of electron pairs will form different shapes, e.g. 0 pairs = linear, 1 = pyramidal...</span>

How many grams of Pb are contained in a mixture of 0.135 kg each of PbCl(OH) and Pb2Cl2CO3?
Dahasolnce [82]

Hey there!:

Given the mass of PbCl(OH) :

0.135 Kg = 0.135 Kg*(1000g / 1Kg)  = 135 g

Molecular mass of PbCl(OH)  = 207+35.5+16+1  = 259.5 g / mol

Atomic mass of Pb = 207 g/mol

Hence mass of Pb in 135 g  PbCl(OH)  :

(207 g Pb /  259.5 g PbClOH) * 135g PbClOH  =

0.79768 * 135 =>  107.68 g of Pb

For Pb2Cl2CO3  :

Given the mass of Pb2Cl2CO3  :

0.135 Kg = 0.135 Kgx(1000g / 1Kg)  = 135 g

Molecular mass of Pb2Cl2CO3  = 2*207+2*35.5+12+3*16  = 545 g / mol

Mass of Pb present in 1 mol (=545 g / mol) of Pb2Cl2CO3  = 2*207 = 414 g

Hence mass of Pb in 135 g  Pb2Cl2CO3:

(414 g Pb /  545 g PbClOH) * 135g PbClOH  =

0.75963 * 135 => 102.55 g of Pb2Cl2CO3


Hope that helps!

Why is true about electron dot diagrams
vazorg [7]

Answer: The correct answer is the option: B. An element with eight valence electrons is chemically unstable.

Explanation:

Hello! Let's solve this!

We will analyze each of the options:

A. The group number of the element provides a clue to the number of valence electrons: it is correct, since it provides the number of valence electrons.

B. An element with eight valence electrons is chemically unstable: this is not correct, since elements with eight electrons in the valence shell cannot react because they already have the last complete shell. Therefore, they are chemically stable.

C. The points must be placed one at a time on each side of the chemical symbol: it is correct, because that is the way to make the point diagram.

D. An atom is chemically stable if all the points are paired: this is correct since this verifies that the point diagram has been done well.

We conclude that the correct answer is the option: B. An element with eight valence electrons is chemically unstable.

Hope this helps.....  Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!! :D
