Answer:

Formal charge on n is +1

Formal charge on o is -1

Explanation:

Consider the atom n,

n is connected to o with a single bond and to c with a triple bond

<h3>Formula for formal charge on an atom is number of valence electrons - number of non-bonding electrons - (number of bonding electrons) ÷ 2</h3>

In case of n, number of valence electrons are 5

Number of non-bonding electrons are 0

Number of bonding electrons are 8 (∵ n is attached to 4 bonds and each bond is equivalent to 2 electrons)

∴ Formal charge on n = 5 - 0 - (8 ÷ 2) = 5 - 4 = +1

∴ Formal charge on n is +1

Consider the atom o,

o is connected to n by a single bond

In case of o, number of valence electrons are 6

Number of non-bonding electrons are 6 (∵ it has 3 lone pair of electrons)

Number of bonding electrons are 2 (∵ it is connected to n by a single bond and that bond is equivalent to 2 electrons)

Formal charge on atom o = 6 - 6 - (2 ÷ 2) = -1

∴ Formal charge on o is -1

Na2CO3(aq) + CaCl2(aq) — 2 NaCl(aq) + CaCO3(s)
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

100 mL

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CaCO₃ produced = 2.00 g

Molarity of CaCl₂ = 0.200 M

Volume of CaCl₂ needed = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Na₂CO₃  + CaCl₂    →      2NaCl + CaCO₃

First of all we will calculate the number of moles of CaCO₃.

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 2.00 g / 100.09 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.02 mol

Now we will compare the moles of CaCO₃ and CaCl₂.

              CaCO₃          :            CaCl₂

                   1                :               1

                 0.02           :              0.02

Thus, 0.02 moles of CaCl₂ react,

Volume of CaCl₂ reacted:

Molarity = number of moles / volume in L

0.200 M = 0.02 mol / volume in L

Volume in L = 0.02 mol / 0.200 M

Volume in L = 0.1 L

Volume in mL:

0.1 L × 1000 mL/1L

100 mL

A solution of saline may contain 1.81 mol of sodium chloride (NaCl). How many sodium atoms are present in the solution?
joja [24]

Answer:

1.09 x 10²⁴ atoms Na

Explanation:

In one mole of NaCl, there is also one mole of Na. To convert between moles and atoms, you need to use Avogadro's number. When writing the conversion, the desired unit (atoms) should be placed in the numerator to allow for the cancellation of units (moles). The final answer should have 3 sig figs to match the given number (1.81 mole).

Avogadro's Number:

6.022 x 10²³ atoms = 1 mole

1.81 moles Na           6.022 x 10²³ atoms
---------------------  x  --------------------------------  =  1.09 x 10²⁴ atoms Na
                                       1 mole

4. If 175 undecayed nuclei remain from a sample of 2800 nuclei, how many half-
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

X = 4

Explanation:

Start 2800

End 175

175 = 2800x(0.5)^X

175/2800 = 0.5^X

0.0625 = 0.5^X

log(0.5 x) = log(0.0625)

x · log(0.5) = log(0.0625)

-0.301x = -1.204

x = -1.204/-0.301

x = 4

2LiClO+KHSO - Li2SO4 + Cl2 + KOOH
agasfer [191]

Answer:

2.5 moles of KOOH are produced.

Explanation:

1)Given data:

Number of moles of KOOH produced = ?

Number of moles of LiClO = 5 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2LiClO +  KHSO₄     →      Li₂SO₄ + Cl₂ + KOOH

now we will compare the moles of KOOH and LiClO.

                 LiClO          :          KOOH

                    2              :              1

                   5               :             1/2×5 = 2.5

2.5 moles of KOOH are produced.
