Answer :  The Lewis-dot structure of NH_3 is shown below.

Explanation :

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

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, NH_3

As we know that hydrogen has '1' valence electron and nitrogen has '5' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in NH_3 = 5 + 3(1) = 8

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 6 number of bonding electrons and 2 number of non-bonding electrons.

Now we have to determine the formal charge for each atom.

Formula for formal charge :

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

\text{Formal charge on N}=5-2-\frac{6}{2}=0

\text{Formal charge on }H_1=1-0-\frac{2}{2}=0

\text{Formal charge on }H_2=1-0-\frac{2}{2}=0

\text{Formal charge on }H_3=1-0-\frac{2}{2}=0

Hence, the Lewis-dot structure of NH_3 is shown below.

0.28gram of NH3 on decomposition gave 0.25gram of nitrogen and hydrogen. Find the volume of hydrogen evolved at Ntp. (2gram hydr
hodyreva [135]

The volume of H₂ evolved at NTP=0.336 L

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Reaction

Decomposition of NH₃

2NH₃ ⇒ N₂ + 3H₂

conservation mass : mass reactants=mass product

0.28 NH₃= 0.25 N₂ + 0.03 H₂

2 g H₂ = 22.4 L

so for 0.03 g :

\tt \dfrac{0.03}{2}\times 22.4=0.336

A sample of gas exerts a pressure of 16 atm at a temperature of 340 K. What is the pressure of the gas in atm if the temperature
gavmur [86]

Answer:

P2 = 19.2atm

Explanation:

Initial pressure (P1) = 16atm

Initial temperature (T1) = 340K

Final temperature (T2) = 408K

Final pressure (P2) = ?

This question involves the use of pressure law

Pressure law states that the pressure of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to it's temperature provided that volume is kept constant.

Mathematically,

P = kT, k = P / T

Therefore,

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2 = P3 / T3 = ......=Pn / Tn

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

We need to solve for P2

P2 = (P1 × T2) / T1

Now we can plug in the values and solve for P2

P2 = (16 × 408) / 340

P2 = 6528 / 340

P2 = 19.2atm

The final pressure (P2) of the gas is 19.2atm
