There is 6 non - bonding pairs.
Let me show you one easy method to do this.
o22-, oxygen valence electron = 6 here we have two so total 12, and -2 that means we add electrons so it’s all equal to 14 right.
whenever need to find lone pair, subtract the number you get with the lowest multiple of 8.
here we total 14 valence electron right so lowest multiple of 8 would be 8.
so 14 - 8 = 6 and that is our answer.
Let me know if you have Problem with chemistry.

Answer:

The correct answer is that there are 6 pairs of non-binding electrons.

Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

In the Lewis structure of hydrogen peroxide we have a simple covalent bond between each of the hydrogen with each of the oxygen. To this is added a simple covalent bond between the oxygen. So we will have:

O22-: this means that we have 6 electrons for each of the oxygen, they are two oxygen so there are 12 electrons and there is a -2 so in total there are 14 electrons.

This must be deducted from the used electrons that are 2 + 2 (with the hydrogen) +2 (of the two oxygen): in total there are six electrons.

14-6 = 8

In other words, there are 4 pairs of non-binding electrons in hydrogen peroxide.

As is the peroxide ion, we must add two freer pairs, which are those that bind with the hydrogen.

The correct answer is that there are 6 pairs of non-binding electrons.

Imagine the reaction A + B ⇌ C + D is at equilibrium, where the forward and reverse reactions are at equal rates. What would hap
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Rate of forward reaction will increase.

Explanation:

Effect of change in reaction condition on equilibrium is explained by Le Chatelier's principle. According to this principle,

If an equilibrium condition of a dynamic reversible reaction is disturbed by changing concentration, temperature, pressure, volume, etc,  then reaction will move will in a direction which counteract the change.

In the given reaction,

A + B ⇌ C + D

If concentration of A is increase, then reaction will move in a direction which decreases the concentration of A to reestablish the equilibrium.

As concentration A decreases in forward direction, therefore, rate of forward reaction will increase.

What is the molecular structure of water? What are the physical and chemical properties of water?
Slav-nsk [51]
Water (H
2O) is a polar inorganic compound that is at room temperature a tasteless and odorless liquid, which is nearly colorless apart from an inherent hint of blue. It is by far the most studied chemical compound and is described as the "universal solvent" [18][19] and the "solvent of life".[20] It is the most abundant substance on Earth[21] and the only common substance to exist as a solid, liquid, and gas on Earth's surface.[22] It is also the third most abundant molecule in the universe.[21]

Help please !!!!!!!!
Elena L [17]

Answer:

Option B. 2096.1 K

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include the following:

Enthalpy (H) = +1287 kJmol¯¹ = +1287000 Jmol¯¹

Entropy (S) = +614 JK¯¹mol¯¹

Temperature (T) =.?

Entropy is related to enthalphy and temperature by the following equation:

Change in entropy (ΔS) = change in enthalphy (ΔH) / Temperature (T)

ΔS = ΔH / T

With the above formula, we can obtain the temperature at which the reaction will be feasible as follow:

ΔS = ΔH / T

614 = 1287000/ T

Cross multiply

614 x T = 1287000

Divide both side by 614

T = 1287000/614

T = 2096.1 K

Therefore, the temperature at which the reaction will be feasible is 2096.1 K
