Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Non-metals are the substances which tend to gain electrons from a donor atom in order to attain stability.

For example, atomic number of phosphorous is 15 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 5.

As it contains 5 valence electrons electrons therefore, it needs 3 more electrons in order to attain stability.

Hence, when one phosphorous atom combines with another phosphorous atom then it results in sharing of electrons. So, there will be formation a triple bond between the two phosphorous atoms.

Also, there will be one lone pair of electron on each phosphorous atom.

Thus, we can conclude that triple covalent bond would form between two atoms of phosphorus.

The molar mass of HgO is 216.59 g/mol. The molar mass of O2 is 32.00 g/mol. How many moles of HgO are needed to produce 250.0 g
Irina-Kira [14]
A reaction in which Oxygen (O₂) is produced from Mercury Oxide (HgO) would be a decomposition reaction.
           2HgO    →    2Hg    +    O₂

If 250g of O₂ is needed to be produced,
then the moles of oxygen needed to be produced = 250g  ÷  32 g/mol
                                                                                     = 7.8125 mol

Now, the mole ratio of Oxygen to Mercury Oxide is  1  :  2
∴ if the moles of oxygen =  7.8125 mol
then the moles of mercury oxide = 7.8125 mol × 2
                                                        = 15.625 mol


Thus the number moles of HgO needed to produce 250.0 g of O₂ is 15.625 mol

stepan [7]
<span>In water, naoh almost completely separates into na+ and oh- ions. thus, naoh is Stong base.
Strong bases and strong acids completely ionized in the water,So when NaOH is added into water, it is completely ionized and forms Na+ and OH- ions and it shows that it is a strong base.</span>
