Answer:

None of these

Explanation:

O_2:-

Valence electrons of oxygen = 6

The total number of the valence electrons  = 2(6) = 12

The Lewis structure is drawn in such a way that the octet of each atom and duet for the hydrogen in the molecule is complete. So, The Lewis structure is shown in image below.

Formula for formal charge :

\text{Formal charge}=\text{Valence electrons}-\text{Non-bonding electrons}-\frac{\text{Bonding electrons}}{2}

Formal charge for oxygen:

\text{Formal charge}=6-4-\frac{4}{2}=0

From the structure,

Number of bond pairs = 4 (Double bond)

Number of lone pairs = 4

<u>Hence, the correct option is:-   None of these</u>

A horizontal pipe 15 cm in diameter and 4 m long is buried in the earth at a depth of 20 cm. The pipe-wall temperature is 75 deg
Basile [38]

Explanation:

The given data for case (1) is as follows.

  h = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Assuming that a rectangular slab is placed above the pipe and we will calculate the heat transfer as follows.

              Q = kA \frac{\Delta T}{L}

  where,    A = area

                  L = length

                  k = thermal conductivity = 0.8 W/m

             \Delta T = change in temperature.

Therefore, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

            Q = kA \frac{\Delta T}{L}

                = 0.8 W/m \times (4 m \times 0.15 m) \frac{75 - 5}{0.2}

                = 168 W

For case (2), h = 180 cm = 1.8 m

Therefore, heat lost will be calculated as follows.

                       Q = kA \frac{\Delta T}{L}

                           = 0.8 W/m \times (4 m \times 0.15 m) \frac{75 - 5}{1.8}

                           = 18.67 W

Thus, we can conclude that 18.67 W heat lost if the pipe was buried at a depth of 180 cm.

to find the mass of 3.2 moles of calcium for carbonate which of the following is used to calculate the amount
natka813 [3]
I believe it to be g/mol of Calcium carbonate
because to finde mass...u must have grams(g) as units....
it is the only one that have g as units 

as for the first answer the avogadros number gives u the number of atoms in  one mole of calcium carbonate....
the second one is based on ... At s.t.p one mole of gas occupies 22.4 dm³⇒to find volume

Which of the following describes the boundaries created by earth's tectonic systems
Dvinal [7]
The earth's plates usually move in three different ways resulting in three different types of plate margins/ boundaries: CONVERGENT, DIVERGENT and TRANSFORM plate boundaries.

When plates move towards each other, they collide and this usually either results in the denser of the plates sliding below the other plate or both plates pushing against each other resulting in both plates being pushed upwards to form often times Fold Mountains.  This type of earth tectonics causes a CONVERGENT (destructive; because the collision of the plates results in loss of earth surface area) plate boundary to be formed.

Plates can also pull away from each other and in so doing creating space usually in the form of a fissure between the two moving plates. This fissure usually also for molten earth (magma) rising to the surface and closing the opening between the plates.  This type of earth tectonic is known to form DIVERGENT (constructive; because it usually results in new land being formed) plate margins.

Plates also slide against each other (side to side) thus not resulting in neither the destruction or creation of new land.  This kind of plate margin is known as the TRANSFORM plate boundary.


The diagram below helps to solidify the points made above.
