Answer:

One carbon atom and the nitrogen atom have nonzero formal charges.

Explanation:

The compound Acetonitrile has sixteen valence electrons as is easily San from its structure. It contains a carbon nitrogen triple bond with a lone pair of electrons on nitrogen. All atoms satisfy the octet rule and there is no hyper valent atom in the molecule.

The formal charge an carbon and nitrogen is calculated as follows;

No. of valence electron on atom - [non bonded electrons + no. of bonds]

Therefore, for carbon and nitrogen, we have;

formal charge on carbon = 4 - (0 + 4) = 0

formal charge on nitrogen = 5 - (2 + 3) = 0

Hence carbon and nitrogen both possess zero formal charges.

Answer:

0.257 L

Explanation:

The values missing in the question has been assumed with common sense so  that the concept could be applied

Initial volume of the AICI3 solution =23.1 \mathrm{mL}

Initial Molarity of the solution =833 \mathrm{mM}

Final molarity of the solution =75.0 \mathrm{mM}

Final volume of the solution =?

From Law of Dilution, M_{f} V_{f}=M_{i} V_{i}

\Rightarrow V_{f}=\frac{M_{i} V_{i}}{M_{f}}=\frac{833 \mathrm{mM} \times 23.1 \mathrm{mL}}{75.0 \mathrm{mM}}=256.564 \mathrm{mL}=0.256564 \mathrm{L}=0.257 L

Final Volume of the solution =0.257

1. Review the information in the table below. Use the information to calculate rate of how many sandwiches are made in a 10-minu
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is given below.

Explanation:

Rate is simply defined as quantity per unit time. Mathematically it is represented as:

Rate = Quantity /time

Thus, we can obtain the rate as follow:

1. Quantity = 20 sandwich

Time = 10 mins

Rate =?

Rate = Quantity /time

Rate = 20/10

Rate = 2 sandwich per mins

2. Quantity = 30 sandwich

Time = 10 mins

Rate =?

Rate = Quantity /time

Rate = 30/10

Rate = 3 sandwich per mins

3. Quantity = 40 sandwich

Time = 10 mins

Rate =?

Rate = Quantity /time

Rate = 40/10

Rate = 4 sandwich per mins

4. Quantity = 50 sandwich

Time = 10 mins

Rate =?

Rate = Quantity /time

Rate = 50/10

Rate = 5 sandwich per mins

Thus, the complete table is given as follow:

Quantity >> Unit of measure >> Rate

10 >>>>>>> 10 min >>>>>>>>>> 1

20 >>>>>>> 10 min >>>>>>>>>> 2

30 >>>>>>> 10 min >>>>>>>>>> 3

40 >>>>>>> 10 min >>>>>>>>>> 4

50 >>>>>>> 10 min >>>>>>>>>> 5
