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:

An atom consists of a positively charged nucleus, surrounded by one or more negatively charged particles called electrons. The positive charges equal the negative charges, so the atom has no overall charge; it is electrically neutral. ... The nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons

Calculate the equilibrium number of vacancies per cubic meter for copper at 1000K. The energy for vacancy formation is 0.9eV/ato
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Therefore the equilibrium number of vacancies per unit cubic meter =2.34×10²⁴ vacancies/ mole

Explanation:

The equilibrium number of of vacancies is denoted by N_v.

It is depends on

  • total no. of atomic number(N)
  • energy required for vacancy
  • Boltzmann's constant (k)= 8.62×10⁻⁵ev K⁻¹
  • temperature (T).

N_v=Ne^{-\frac{Q_v}{kT} }

To find  equilibrium number of of vacancies we have find N.

N=\frac{N_A\ \rho}{A_{cu}}

Here ρ= 8.45 g/cm³  =8.45 ×10⁶m³

N_A= Avogadro Number = 6.023×10²³

A_{Cu}= 63.5 g/mole

N=\frac{6.023\times 10^{23}\times 8.45\times 10^{6}}{63.5}

   =8.01\times 10^{28 g/mole

Here Q_v=0.9 ev/atom , T= 1000k

Therefore the equilibrium number of vacancies per unit cubic meter,

N_v=( 8.01\times 10^{28}) e^{-(\frac{0.9}{8.62\times10^{-5}\times 1000})

   =2.34×10²⁴ vacancies/ mole

Determine the final temperature of sample with a specific heat of 1.1 J/g°C and a mass of 385 g if it starts out at a temperatur
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

T2 =21.52°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Specific heat capacity of sample = 1.1 J/g.°C

Mass of sample = 385 g

Initial temperature = 19.5°C

Heat absorbed = 885 J

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = Final temperature - initial temperature

885J = 385 g× 1.1 J/g.°C×(T2 - 19.5°C )

885 J = 423.5 J/°C× (T2 - 19.5°C )

885 J / 423.5 J/°C = (T2 - 19.5°C )

2.02°C = (T2 - 19.5°C )

T2 = 2.02°C + 19.5°C

T2 =21.52°C
