Suppose that on a dry, sunny day when the air temperature is near 37 ∘C,37 ∘C, a certain swimming pool would increase in tempera
ioda

Answer:

The fraction of water body necessary to keep the temperature constant is 0,0051.

Explanation:

Heat:

Q=m*Ce*ΔT

Q= heat  (unknown)

m= mass  (unknown)

Ce= especific heat (1 cal/g*°C)

ΔT= variation of temperature  (2.75 °C)  

Latent heat:

ΔE=∝mΔHvap

ΔE= latent heat

m= mass  (unknown)

∝= mass fraction (unknown)

ΔHvap= enthalpy of vaporization (539.4 cal/g)

Since Q and E are equal, we can match both equations:

m*Ce*ΔT=∝*m*ΔHvap

Mass fraction is:

∝=\frac{Ce*ΔT}{ΔHvap}

∝=\frac{(1 cal/g*°C)*2.75°C}{539.4 cal/g}

∝=0,0051

Draw a Lewis structure for HCCl3 . Include all hydrogen atoms and show all unshared pairs and the formal charges, if any. Assume
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

See answer below

Explanation:

First, let's explain what a Lewis structure is.

A lewis structure in short words is a draw of an atom or molecule showing how the electrons bond with another electrons of atoms, and also shows the unshared pair of electrons, which are the electrons that do not bond in the molecule. In the case of an atom, it shows all the available electrons it has to be shared and bonded with another atom to form a molecule.

With this said, in order to draw the lewis structure we need to know how many electrons the atoms involved have. To know this, we need to write the electronic configuration of the atoms, based on it's atomic number.

In the case of Hydrogen (Z = 1), Carbon (Z = 6) and Cl (Z = 17):

[H] = 1s¹     1 electron available.

[C] = 1s² 2s² 2p²   In this case, we have 4 electrons.

[Cl] = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵  In this case, 7 electrons.

Now that we have the configuration, and the available electrons, we need to draw the atoms. The Carbon is the more electronegative atom of them, so, the bonding will be formed based on this atom as the central. So the other atoms will just bond and shared a pair of electron with the carbon. The HCCl₃ can be treated as CH₄, with a tetrahedrical form.

The picture below shows the lewis structure.

Hope this helps

Answer:

CH4 - Methane

B2Si - Diboron monosilicide

N2O5 - Dinitrogen pentoxide

CO2 - Carbon dioxide

Explanation:

When it comes to naming covalent compounds, there are several rules.

The name is derived based on the formula. For example, N2O5. The first element is nitrogen. To the name of the element, you add the prefix that tells us how many of its atoms are in the compound. In this case, there are two atoms, which means that the prefix will be <em>di</em>- (dinitrogen). The second element is oxygen. You are supposed to take only the root of the second element's name and then add the prefix denoting the number of its atoms and the suffix <em>-ide</em> (pentoxide). This is how we'll get dinitrogen pentoxide.

The only exception is methane (CH4), which is an organic compound. Organic compounds are named using the IUPAC nomenclature.
