How do you find the # of sigma and pi bonds using a Lewis dot structure

Chemistry

Lubov Fominskaja [6]3 years ago

Every single bond is a sigma bond.

A double bond contains 1 sigma bond and 1 pi bond.

A triple bond contains 1 sigma bond and 2 pi bonds.


For example, in acetylene, H-C≡C-H, the sigma bond is formed by the head-on overlap of two sp orbitals. The pi bonds are formed by the side-on overlap of 2p orbitals.

A compound that is composed of molybdenum (Mo) and oxygen (O) was produced in a lab by heating molybdenum over a Bunsen burner.
irakobra [83]
First, we determine the mass of each element from the data collected. We can get the mass of molybdenum Mo from the difference between the mass of crucible and molybdenum and the mass of crucible:
     Mass of molybdenum = 39.52 – 38.26 = 1.26 g Mo

We can calculate for the mass of molybdenum oxide from the difference between the mass of crucible and molybdenum oxide and the mass of crucible:
     Mass of molybdenum oxide = 39.84 – 38.26 = 1.58g 

We can now compute for the mass of oxygen O by subtracting the mass of molybdenum from the mass of molybdenum oxide:
     Mass of oxygen in molybdenum oxide = 1.58 – 1.26 = 0.32g O

To convert mass to moles, we use the molar mass of each element.
     1.26 g Mo * 1 mol Mo / 95.94 g Mo = 0.0131 mol Mo
     0.32 g O * 1 mol O / 15.999 g O = 0.0200 mol O

0.0131 mol is the smallest number of moles. We divide each mole value by this number:
     0.0131 mol Mo / 0.0131 = 1
     0.0200 mol O / 0.0131 = 1.53

Multiplying these results by 2 to get the lowest whole number ratio,
     0.0131 mol Mo / 0.0131 = 1 * 2 = 2
     0.0200 mol O / 0.0131 = 1.5 * 2 = 3
Thus, we can write the empirical formula as Mo2O3.

The compound, nah2po4, is present in many baking powders. what is its name? sodium phosphate sodium bephosphate sodium dihydroge
AlladinOne [14]
 The  compound NaH2PO4     name  is

sodium  dihydrogen  phosphate

 
Explanation
This name is    arrived  at  by using the   IUPAC rules  of naming   compound

1.  the metal (sodium)is  named  first  followed  by  the ligand ( hydrogen  and phosphate)

Ligand  are  molecules   that are   attached to  the metal  center.

2.   ligand  are  named using alphabetical   order(for  our  case  h  for hydrogen come before p for  phosphate hence hydrogen is named first)

3. Prefix   di is used  since hydrogen  are two

hence the name  of the compound  is  Sodium dihydrogen  phosphate
