Answer:

Explanation:

Pasted below is his 5 theory's and all of them are the building blocks of chemistry today.

1. Matter is made up of atoms that are indivisible and indestructible.

2. All atoms of an element are identical.

3. Atoms of different elements have different weights and different chemical properties.

4. Atoms of different elements combine in simple whole numbers to form compounds.

5. Atoms cannot be created or destroyed. When a compound decomposes, the atoms are recovered unchanged.

Which is an example of a double

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

NaCl + AgF → NaF + AgCl

Explanation:

A double replacement reaction is a type of chemical reaction that occurs when two reactants exchange cations or anions to yield two new products.

From all the reactions given ,

2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl is an example of combination reaction because two or more reactants (Na & Cl₂) react with each other to form a single product (NaCl)

H₂SO₃ → H₂O + SO₂ is an example of decomposition reaction because a single reactant (H₂SO₃) breaks down into two or more products (H₂O & SO₂).
2K + 2H₂O → 2KOH + H₂ is an example of displacement reaction because a highly reactive element (K) displaces a least reactive element (H) from its compound (H₂O).

NaCl + AgF → NaF + AgCl is an example of double replacement reaction because there's an exchange between Cations ( $Na^+$ & $Ag^{+}$ ) and Anions ( $Cl^-$ & $F^-$ ).

CH3COOH(aq) + NaOH(aq) â†’ H2O(l) + NaCH3COO(aq)

I believe this is a double replacement. As you can see none of the chemical symbols are missing, there just "replaced".

Consider the resonance structures of formate. the first lewis structure of formate has a central carbon atom. a hydrogen atom an

OleMash [197]

So,

Formate has a resonating double bond.

In molecular orbital theory, the resonating electrons are actually delocalized and are shared between the two oxygens. So the carbon-oxygen bonds can be described as 1.5-bonds (option B). I'm not sure if option C is correct, however, because the likelihood of both delocalized electrons being in the area of one oxygen atom is less than 50%.<span />
