Answer:

b., four; four

Explanation:

As an element, carbon is tetravalent, it has 4 outer shell electrons and oxygen has 6 outer shell electrons. The carbon dioxide molecule is formed from one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms by two double covalent bonds. In making CO₂, two electrons of carbon share with each oxygen atoms resulting in 4 bonding electrons in total. Carbon dioxide's strong double bonds make it very stable.

In reaction with water, carbon forms double covalent bond with one of the oxygen of CO₂ and with two single covalent bonds one with other oxygen atoms of CO₂ and one with the oxygen atom of H₂O forming carbonic acid (H₂CO₃). Thus, carbon shares 4 electrons.

How much pressure would 0.8 moles of a gas at 370K exert if it occupied 17.3L of space
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

1.40 atm is the pressure for the gas

Explanation:

An easy problem to solve with the Ideal Gases Law:

P . V = n . R .T

T° = 370K

V = 17.3L

n = 0.8 mol

Let's replace data → P . 17.3L = 0.8mol . 0.082L.atm/mol.K . 370K

P = (0.8mol . 0.082L.atm/mol.K . 370K) / 17.3L = 1.40 atm

What charge (positive, negative, neutral) does the complete atom<br> have?
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The positive charges equal the negative charges, so the atom has no overall charge; it is electrically neutral. Most of an atom's mass is in its nucleus; the mass of an electron is only 1/1836 the mass of the lightest nucleus, that of hydrogen.

Enter your answer in the provided box.
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

5.06atm

Explanation:

Using the combined gas law equation;

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Where;

P1 = initial pressure (atm)

P2 = final pressure (atm)

V1 = initial volume (Litres)

V2 = final volume (Litres)

T1 = initial temperature (K)

T2 = final temperature (K)

According to the information provided in this question;

P1 = 1.34 atm

P2 = ?

V1 = 5.48 L

V2 = 1.32 L

T1 = 61 °C = 61 + 273 = 334K

T2 = 31 °C = 31 + 273 = 304K

Using P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

1.34 × 5.48/334 = P2 × 1.32/304

7.34/334 = 1.32P2/304

Cross multiply

334 × 1.32P2 = 304 × 7.34

440.88P2 = 2231.36

P2 = 2231.36/440.88

P2 = 5.06

The final pressure is 5.06atm
