A simple proportion,
10  \div 35 = x \div 61
61 \times 10 = 610
610 \div 35 = 17.42857
so x= 17.43~

Briefly explain why an unbalanced chemical equation cannot fully describe a reaction?
zubka84 [21]

From the conservation of mass, matter is not created nor destroyed. So ponder it this way, for example I put one piece of toast in a toaster, but when it is done I had two pieces, that makes no sense right? Same thing with a chemical reaction but in molecular terms, all things must stay constant. If you put a convinced amount you have to get that quantity back, not less or not more in broad terms.

draw the lewis structure for pcl6, then answer the following questions: 1. how many valence electrons does this compound have? 2
DedPeter [7]

The Pcl6 has 48 bonded electrons and 18 lone pairs.

The Lewis structure of Pcl6 is as follows: -

Phosphorous is bonded with 6 chlorine atoms with 18 lone pairs.

Lewis structures, also known as Lewis dot formulas, Lewis dot structures, electron dot structures, or Lewis electron dot structures (LEDS), are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule, as well as the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule. [1][2][3] A Lewis structure can be drawn for any covalently bonded molecule, as well as coordination compounds.

    In Lewis structure, atoms are bonded with single bonds. If total number of electrons are 't' and number of bonds are 'n', then t-2n number of electrons are to be placed. Once the central atom is placed, they need to complete the octet rule.
