Answer :

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

The given molecule is, hypochlorite ion.

Chlorine has '7' valence electrons and oxygen has '6' valence electron.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in hypochlorite ion, ClO^- = 7 + 6 + 1 = 14

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

The Lewis-dot structure of hypochlorite ion is shown below.

Write a balanced half-reaction for the reduction of gaseous nitrogen (N2) to aqueous hydrazine (N2H4) in basic aqueous solution.
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

N₂(g) + 4H⁺(aq) + 4e⁻ → N₂H₄(aq)

Explanation:

The half reaction for the reaction for the reduction of gaseous nitrogen to aqueous hydrazine is;

N₂(g) → N₂H₄(aq)

The balancing the atoms in the half reaction. Hydrogen atom is balanced by adding hydrogen ions (H⁺)

We have;

N₂(g) + 4H⁺(aq) → N₂H₄(aq)

Then we balance the charge on both sides by adding electrons where the positive charge is greater;

we have;

N₂(g) + 4H⁺(aq) + 4e⁻ → N₂H₄(aq)

The reaction of Cr2O3 with silicon metal at high temperatures will make chromium metal. 2CrO3(s) + 3Si(s)----&gt; 4Cr(l) + 3SiO2
nalin [4]

Answer: 51.45 grams of excess reagent is left after the completion of reaction.

Explanation: For the calculation of moles, we use the formula:

Moles=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     ....(1)

  • For Si

Given mass = 92 grams

Molar mass = 28g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

Moles=\frac{92g}{28g/mol}=3.285moles

  • For Cr_2O_3

Given mass = 112 grams

Molar mass = 116g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

Moles=\frac{112g}{116g/mol}=0.965moles

The reaction follows:

2Cr_2O_3(s)+3Si(s)\rightarrow 4Cr(l)+3SiO_2(s)

By Stoichiometry,

2 moles of Cr_2O_3 reacts with 3 moles of silicon

So, 0.965 moles of Cr_2O_3 reacts with = \frac{3}{2}\times 0.965 = 1.4475 moles of Silicon.

As, the moles of silicon is more than the required amount and is present in excess.

So, the excess reagent for the reaction is Silicon.

Moles of silicon remained after reaction = 3.285 - 1.4475 = 1.8375 moles

To calculate the amount of Silicon left in excess is calculated by using equation 1:

1.8375=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{28}

Amount of Silicon in excess will be 51.45 grams.
