Visual representation of covalent bonding indicating the valence shell electrons in the molecule, lines represents the shared pair of electron and pair of electrons that are not involved in bonding are represented as dots(lone pairs) are known as Lewis structures.

Compound formation takes place in order to complete the octet of each element that is according to octet rule, each atom forms bond with other atom in order to complete their octet that is to get eight electrons in its valence shell and attain stability.

An organic compound of the form R^{'}R^{''}C=C=O is known as ketene.

The given ketene is C_2H_2O.

The number of valence electron of:

C = 4

H = 1

O = 6

The number of valence electrons in C_2H_2O = 2\times 4+2\times 1+1\times 6 =16

2 electrons are involved in each single bond between carbon and hydrogen and 4 electrons are involved in each double bond formed between carbon-carbon and carbon-oxygen. Hence, the total number of electrons involved in bond formation are 12 and rest 2 pair of electrons are present on oxygen as lone pair of electrons.

Therefore, the attached image is the Lewis structure of C_2H_2O .

How much energy is evolved during the formation of 197 g of Fe, according to the reaction below?
hoa [83]

Answer:

ΔH for formation of 197g Fe⁰ = 1.503 x 10³ Kj => Answer choice 'B'

Explanation:

Given Fe₂O₃(s) + 2Al⁰(s) => Al₂O₃(s) + 2Fe⁰(s) + 852Kj

197g Fe⁰ = (197g/55.85g/mol) = 3.527 mol Fe⁰(s)

From balanced standard equation 2 moles Fe⁰(s) => 852Kj, then ...

3.527 mole yield (a higher mole value) => (3.527/2) x 852Kj = 1,503Kj (a higher enthalpy value).

______

NOTE => If 2 moles Fe gives 852Kj (exo) as specified in equation, then a <u>higher energy value</u> would result if the moles of Fe⁰(s) is <u>higher than 2 moles</u>. The ratio of 3.638/2 will increase the listed equation heat value to a larger number because 197g Fe⁰(s) contains more than 2 moles of Fe⁰(s) => 3.527 mole Fe(s) in 197g.  Had the problem asked for the heat loss from <u>less than two moles Fe⁰(s)</u> - say 100g Fe⁰(s) (=1.79mole Fe⁰(s)) - then one would use the fractional ratio (1.79/2) to reduce the enthalpy value less than 852Kj.

What amount of heat absorbs 50 g of steel (ce = 0.115 cal / g. ° C) that

does its temperature vary by 25 ° C?

Answer:

143.75cal

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of steel  = 50g

Specific heat capacity of the steel  = 0.115cal/g°C

Temperature  = 25°C

Unknown:

Amount of heat = ?

Solution:

The amount of heat to cause this temperature change is dependent on mass and specific heat capacity of the substance.

  Amount of heat  = m C (ΔT)

m is the mass

c is the specific heat capacity

ΔT is the temperature change

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

  Amount of heat  = 50 x 0.115 x 25

  Amount of heat  = 143.75cal

If nitrogen-13 has a half life of 2.5 years, how much remains from a 100g sample after 7.5 years
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

12.50g

Explanation:

T½ = 2.5years

No = 100g

N = ?

Time (T) = 7.5 years

To solve this question, we'll have to find the disintegration constant λ first

T½ = In2 / λ

T½ = 0.693 / λ

λ = 0.693 / 2.5

λ = 0.2772

In(N/No) = -λt

N = No* e^-λt

N = 100 * e^-(0.2772*7.5)

N = 100*e^-2.079

N = 100 * 0.125

N = 12.50g

The sample remaining after 7.5 years is 12.50g

What is an air mass? Where on Earth might you find a hot and dry air mass?
igor_vitrenko [27]
An air mass is a large volume of air in the atmosphere thats mostly uniform in temperature and moisture. Air masses can extend thousands of kilometers across the surface of the Earth, and can reach from ground level to the stratosphere/10 miles into the atmosphere. an air mass over northern Canada is a continental polar air mass and is cold and dry. One that forms over the Indian Ocean is called a maritime tropical air mass and is warm and humid.
