6. a) Why is isocyanic acid prepared ""in situ"" in the Dulcin experiment? [2 pts] b) Draw a plausible Lewis structure for isocy
anic acid showing all lone pairs. The connectivity for isocyanic acid is shown below[4 pts] H-N-C-0
1 answer:
Answer:
As it gets hydrolyzed easily.
Explanation:
The isocyanic acid may get polymerizes easily into cyanuric acid and a polymer cyamelide
Also, even at 0 °C temperature it may react with mositure and gets hydrolyzed into ammonia an carbon dioxide. Thus we generally prepare it in situ. Even after synthesis it is stroed at dry ice or liquid nitrogen at very low temperature.
The lewis structure is shown in the figure.

Silicon is the element having a mass of 28.09 g
<u>Explanation</u>:
- Silicon is the element having an atomic mass of 28.09 g / mol. So 28.09 g of silicon contains 6.023
10^23 atoms. One mole of each element can produce one mole of compound.
- The Atomic weight of an element can be determined by the number of protons and neutrons present in one atom of that element. So atomic weight expressed in grams always contain the same number of atoms( 6.023
- Avagadro number is the number of atoms of 1 mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure. It has been determined that 6.023
