Answer:
<u>One lone-Pair is present in Ammonia</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
The number of valence electron in N = 5
The number of Valence electron in H = 1
The formula of ammonia = NH3
Total valence electron in ammonia molecule = 5 +3(1) = 5+3 = 8
The lewis structure suggest that :
Nitrogen completes its octet by sharing the electron pair with 3 hydrogen atoms.
3 electron of Nitrogen are involved in sharing with Hydrogen
So,<u><em> remaining two electron are left non-bonded</em></u> . Hence they exist as lone- pair
So, there is only 1 lone pair in the ammonia molecule .
The shape of NH3 is bent according to VSEPR theory . This is so because the presence of 1 lone pair causes more repulsion and occupy more space.
Thus the lone pair is changing the shape of the ammonia molecule . It also increase the dipole moment of the molecule , which gives polarity to it.
H2O (water) has 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom.
C) They have a large number of rods and small number of cones.
Answer:
Argon has 8 valence electrons and no extras, it does not require a bond in order to fill its shells, its satisfied by itself.
Chlorine is missing 1 Electron, if it connects with another Chlorine it will be satisfying both of their needs with a Covalent bond.
Explanation:
To solve for the number of moles, we simply have to use the Avogadros number which states that there are 6.022 x 10^23 molecules per mole. Therefore:
number of moles = 6.67 X 10^40 chlorine molecules / (6.022 x 10^23 molecules / mole)
number of moles = 1.108 x 10^17 moles
