Answer: The correct answer is Option D.

Explanation:

Lewis dot structures are the structures which represent the valance electrons of an element forming a compound. The electrons are represented as the dots.

In a compound, the bonded electrons are represented as a bond and lone pair of electrons are represented as dots.

In NH_2^- compound,

Electronic configuration of Nitrogen: 1s^22s^2p^3

Valence electrons in nitrogen = 5

Electronic configuration of hydrogen: 1s^1

Valence electrons in hydrogen = 1

In the given compound, bond pairs are 2 which means number of electrons bonded are 4.

Unbonded electrons left on nitrogen will be 3 and this compound has an extra electron because of the negative charge present on the compound. Hence, total unbonded electrons present on this compound will be 4.

Therefore, the lewis dot structure will be Option D.

D. The total number of valence electrons is 8 and D represents that. D also correctly uses the octet rule for N and duet rule for H.

Which of the following statements is/are correct?
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

All are correct

Explanation:

1) The angular momentum quantum number, l, are the subshells within a shell (principle quantum number) it talks about the "form" of an orbital, the number itself tells you about the number of angular nodes (a plane without electronic density). It starts at l=0 where you don't see any nodes and it takes the form of an sphere, and we knowing it bu another name an s-orbital. It takes values up to n-1.

l=0 (sphere - s-orbital)

l=1 (p-orbital)

l=2 (d-orbital)

2) The magnetic quatum number, ml relates to the number of orbitals within a subshell then it is related with l, taking values form -l to l incluing 0.

For l=0 (s-orbital) ml=0

For l=1 (p-orbital) ml=1,0,-1

For l=2 (d-orbital) ml=2,1,0,-1,-2

3) In every shell we are restricted by the total number of nodes of any orbital. Then if we want a d-orbital with l=3 we need at least 3 plane nodes only achievable with n=3 at least.

Calculate the molar concentration of the Br⁻ ions in 0.51 M MgBr2(aq), assuming that the dissolved substance dissociates complet
Y_Kistochka [10]
MgBr2(aq) is an ionic compound which will have the releasing of 2 Br⁻ ions ions in water for every molecule of MgBr2 that dissolves.
MgBr2(s) --> Mg+(aq) + 2 Br⁻(aq)
            [Br⁻] = 0.51 mol MgBr2/1L × 2 mol Br⁻ / 1 mol MgBr2 = 1.0 M
The answer to this question is [Br⁻] = 1.0 M
