Answer :  The Lewis-dot structure for the following molecules are shown below.

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

Now we have to determine the Lewis-dot structure for the following molecules.

(a) The given molecule is, ICl

As we know that iodine and chlorine have '7' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in ICl = 7 + 7 = 14

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 2 number of bonding electrons and 12 number of non-bonding electrons.

(b) The given molecule is, PH_3

As we know that phosphorous has '5' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in PH_3 = 5 + 3(1) = 8

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 6 number of bonding electrons and 2 number of non-bonding electrons.

(c) The given molecule is, P_4

As we know that phosphorous has '5' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in P_4 = 4(5) = 20

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 6 number of bonding electrons and 14 number of non-bonding electrons.

(d) The given molecule is, H_2S

As we know that sulfur has '6' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in H_2S = 6 + 2(1) = 8

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 4 number of bonding electrons and 4 number of non-bonding electrons.

(e) The given molecule is, N_2H_4

As we know that nitrogen has '5' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in N_2H_4 = 2(5) + 4(1) = 14

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 10 number of bonding electrons and 4 number of non-bonding electrons.

(f) The given molecule is, HClO_3

As we know that chlorine has '7' valence electrons, oxygen has '6' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in HClO_3 = 1 + 7 + 3(6) = 26

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 12 number of bonding electrons and 14 number of non-bonding electrons.

(g) The given molecule is, COBr_2

As we know that bromine has '7' valence electrons, oxygen has '6' valence electrons and carbon has '4' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in COBr_2 = 4 + 6 + 2(7) = 24

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 8 number of bonding electrons and 16 number of non-bonding electrons.

A superconductor performs best at??
Charra [1.4K]

very cold temperatures

Explanation:

A superconductor performs best at very cold temperatures.

A superconductor is a perfect conductor that is able to allow the passage of electricity and heat without resistance.

  • In superconductors, under certain conditions, resistance ceases to exist.
  • Examples are aluminium, niobium e.t.c
  • A conductor allows heat and current to pass through but with little resistance.

In the redox fueling reaction, succinate + nad ↔ fumarate + nadph, the succinate molecule is undergoing which process?
GarryVolchara [31]

The answer is oxidation.

That is in the redox fueling reaction,  

succinate + NAD ↔fumarate + NADPH, the succinate molecule is undergoing oxidation.

As succinate molecule is providing electrons to NAD, so that it can be reduced from NAD to NADPH. So it is losing electrons and undergoing oxidation.

So the answer is oxidation.

The mineral galena is composed of lead(II) sulfide and has an average density of 7.46 g/cm³.
postnew [5]

The mineral galena is composed of lead(II) sulfide and has an average density of 7.46 g/cm³. Moles of lead(II) sulfide in 1.00 ft³ of galena are 883 mol PbS.

<h3>What is moles of compound?</h3>

A very large number of molecules, atoms, or other particles are referred to as a "mole," which is a unit of measurement in chemistry. The number of moles in one unit is 6.02214 x 1023, and it is known as Avogadro's Number. These figures are crucial in providing information on the quantity of the constituent elements. A mole of a substance might be as little as a few grams or as much as hundreds of grams.

One mole (or formula unit) of a chemical is equal to 6.022 x 10²³ molecules (ionic). A chemical's molar mass represents the mass of 1 mole of that substance. To put it another way, it tells you how many grams there are in a chemical per mole.
