The number of bonds an atom can form without violating the octet rule is reflected in the number of holes the "ball" for that at

om has in the ball-and-stick model set. Based on that information, how many holes would you expect to see in models of atoms for each of the following elements: (4 points total; 1 point per element) a. Carbon (C)

Answer:

four holes

Explanation:

A ball and stick model is a representation of a molecule that can show the number of bonds and sometimes, the stereochemistry of the molecule under study.

The number of holes on present in the ball and stick model for any atom corresponds to the number of bonds that particular atom can form without violating the octet rule.

Carbon is usually tetravalent, it forms four bonds to other atoms. Hence we expect carbon to have four holes.

Which of the following has a melting point greater than room temperature?
nikdorinn [45]
Technically, the answer is iron. Oxygen has a melting point way below zero (-219 degrees celsius), ice becomes water AT room temperature and bromine is already a liquid at room temperature. So, iron has a melting point greater than room temperature due to the fact that metals are made up of giant structures of atoms in a regular arrangement, and there are strong forces of electrostatic attraction between positive metal ions and negative electrons, meaning that a lot of heat energy is required to break the bonds, i.e. a very high melting point, approx. 1500 degrees celsius. Hope this helps.

Look at the equation CO2 + H2 = CO + H20.
sergejj [24]

Answer:

CO is considered as a product.

Explanation:

A general chemical equation for a combination reaction follows:

To write a chemical equation, we must follow some of the rules:

The reactants must be written on the left side of the direction arrow.

A '+' sign is written between the reactants, when more than one reactants are present.

An arrow is added after all the reactants are written in the direction where reaction is taking place. Here, the reaction is taking place in forward direction.

The products must be written on the right side of the direction arrow.

A '+' sign is written between the products, when more than one products are present.

For the given chemical equation:

are the reactants in the reaction and  are the products in the reaction.

Hence, CO is considered as a product.
