How many equivalent resonance structures can be drawn for the molecule of SO3 without having to violate the octet rule on the su

lfur atom
Chemistry

bearhunter [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

3

Explanation:

Resonance is a valence bond concept put forward by Linus Pauling to explain the fact that the observed properties of a molecule may be as a result of the fact that its actual structure lie somewhere between a given number of structural extremes called canonical structures or resonance structures.

There are three resonance structures for SO3 that obey the octet rule. All the S-O bonds in SO3 are equivalent in these resonance structures.

An alloy of bronze is manufactured by melting 51.2 g of copper with 6.84 g of tin. What is the percent copper in the bronze?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Percentage of copper = 88%

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of copper = 51.2 g

Mass of tin = 6.84 g

Percentage of copper = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Percentage of copper = mass of copper / total mass × 100

Now we will determine the total mass:

Total mass = mass of copper + mass of  tin

Total mass = 51.2 g + 6.84 g

Total mass = 58.04 g

Now we will calculate the percentage of copper.

Percentage of copper = 51.2 g / 58.04 g × 100

Percentage of copper = 0.88 × 100

Percentage of copper = 88%

Compare the amount of heat required to vaporize a 200.-gram sample of H2O(ℓ) at its boiling point to the amount of heat required
stira [4]
The enthalpy of vaporization of H2O is higher than the enthalpy of fusion of H2O, therefore vaporizing the same mass of H2O would require more heat/energy than melting the same mass of H2O.
