Answer : The Lewis-dot structure of $COCl_2$ is shown below.

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, $COCl_2$

As we know that carbon has '4' valence electrons, chlorine has '7' valence electron and oxygen has '6' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $COCl_2$ = 1(4) + 2(7) + 1(6) = 24

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 8 number of bonding electrons and 16 number of non-bonding electrons.

You have 100 grams of potassium fluoride (KF) .

laiz [17]

Answer:

Option C = 1.72 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of KF = 100 g

Moles of KF = ?

Solution:

First of all we have to calculate the molar mass of KF.

Molar mass of KF = 39.0983 g/mol + 18.998403 g/mol

Molar mass of KF = 58. 0967 g/mol

Formula:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 100 g/ 58.0967 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.72 mol

What is the mass in grams of 9.45*10^24 molecules of methanol (CH3OH)?

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Number of moles:

1 mole ---------- 6.02x10²³ molecules
? moles --------- 9.45x10²⁴ molecules

1 x ( 9.45x10²⁴) / 6.02x10²³ =

9.45x10²⁴ / 6.02x10²³ => 15.69 moles of CH3OH

Therefore:

Molar mass CH3OH = 32.04 g/mol

1 mole ------------ 32.04 g
15.69 moles ----- mass methanol

Mass methanol = 15.69 x 32.04 / 1 => 502.7076 g
