Phosphoryl iodide is used in the preparation of organophosphorus derivatives and phosphate esters. select the lewis structure fo
r poi3 that minimizes formal charges.
1 answer:
The Lewis Structure of Phosphoryl triiodide with each element having minimum formal charge is shown below,..
In this structure all elements have zero formal charge.
As, Formal charge is given as,,
Formal Charge = # of Valence e⁻s - [ e⁻s in lone pairs + 1/2 bonding e⁻s]
For P,
Formal Charge = 5 - 0 + 10/2 = 0
For O,
Formal Charge = 6 - 4 + 4/2 = 0
For I,
Formal Charge = 7 - 6 + 2/2 = 0

Answer : The new volume of the balloon is, 22.4 L
Explanation :
Charles' Law : It is defined as the volume of gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure and number of moles.
or,
where,
= initial volume of gas = 22.6 L
= final volume of gas = ?
= initial temperature of gas =
= final temperature of gas =
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the final volume of the gas.
Therefore, the new volume of the balloon is, 22.4 L
