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

Chemistry
1 answer:
olganol [36]3 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.

Given the following formula 2 KCIO3 -&gt; 2 KCI + 3 O2 how many moles of O2 can be produced by letting 12 moles of KCIO3 react?
poizon [28]
1st you need to find the mole ratio between KClO3 and O2.  To find that you need to take the coefficents of each of the compounds.  That gives a ratio of 2:3.

Now we find out how many each unit is:
2x = 12
x = 6

Now we multiply it by 3 to find the number of moles of O2
3(6) = 18 mol O2.
