How many valence electrons should be used to draw a Lewis structure of methane CH4

Chemistry
1 answer:
olganol [36]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

8 valence electrons

Explanation:

There are 4 valence electrons in carbon because it is in group 4A of the periodic table. There is 1 valence electron per hydrogen based on its position on the periodic table, but CH4 has 4 hydrogens in it. So 1 times 4 is 4. Add the 4 valence electrons from carbon with the 4 electrons from H4 to get 8.

Four (4.0) liters of helium gas are stored at 125 atm pressure. If the temperature and number of particles do not change, what w
seropon [69]

Answer:

10 L

Explanation:

The only variables are pressure and volume, so we can use Boyle's Law:

p1V1 = p2V2

Data:

p1 = 125 atm; V1  = 4.0 L  

p2 =  50 atm; V2 = ?

Calculation:

125 × 4.0 = 50V2

       500 = 50 V2

        V2 = 500/50 = 10 L

The new volume will be 10 L.
