How many nonbonding electron pairs are there in the lewis structure of the peroxide ion, o22−?

2 answers:

8 0

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.

Partner Namets) For each of the following reactions carried out: Write the balanced chemical equation, the full ionic equation,

torisob [31]

Answer : The full balanced ionic equation will be,

$2KI(aq)+Pb(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow 2KNO_3(aq)+PbI_2(s)$

Reactants are lead nitrate and potassium iodide.

Products are lead iodide and potassium nitrate.

The spectator ions are, $K^+,NO_3^-$

Explanation :

Complete ionic equation : In complete ionic equation, all the substance that are strong electrolyte and present in an aqueous are represented in the form of ions.

Net ionic equation : In the net ionic equations, we are not include the spectator ions in the equations.

Spectator ions : The ions present on reactant and product side which do not participate in a reactions. The same ions present on both the sides.

When potassium iodide react with lead nitrate then it gives potassium nitrate and lead iodide as a product.

The full balanced ionic equation will be,

$2KI(aq)+Pb(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow 2KNO_3(aq)+PbI_2(s)$

The ionic equation in separated aqueous solution will be,

$2K^+(aq)+2I^{-}(aq)+Pb^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)\rightarrow PbI_2(s)+2K^+(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)$

In this equation, $K^+\text{ and }NO_3^-$ are the spectator ions.

By removing the spectator ions from the balanced ionic equation, we get the net ionic equation.

The net ionic equation will be,

$Pb^{2+}(aq)+2I^{-}(aq)\rightarrow PbI_2(s)$

Answer:

1) 1.202 L , 2) 1.291 dg , 3) 204.877 and 4) 1.04x $10^{3\\}$

Explanation:

You need to review about conversion factors and how to use them in the correct order. You can cancel the units and get the ones that you need if you use the appropriate conversion factors, remember is a number that you can use to multiply or divide.

For your exercise:

1) The conversion factor is: 1 L = 1000 mL

You will need to divide by 1000 mL to obtain liters L

1202.57120 mL x $\frac{1 L}{1000 mL}$ = 1.202 L

2) The conversion factor is: 1 g = 10 dg

0.1290743 g x $\frac{10 dg}{ 1 g}$ = 1.291 dg

For the next exercises, you need to follow some rules:

1. All numbers that are different from Zero (non-zero digits) are significant figures.

2.The Zeros between non-zeros digits (Imbedded zeros) always are significant, 2007.

3. If you want to be specific and want some zeros to be significant you need to add a decimal point. For example 500. or 500.0

4. Leading zeros (to the left) are not significant.

5. Trailing zeros (zeros to the right) in a whole number without decimal point are not significant.

3) 843.062 - 638.1848 = 204.8772

Now if we round to 6 significant figures we get 204.877

4)123.0 x 8.43 = 1036.89

Now we round to 3 significant figures because 8.43 has the least significant figures.

1.04x $10^{3}$
