Why does sulfur have more than 8 electrons in its valence?

1 answer:

3 0

The octet rules says that an atom can only have a maximum of 8 electrons in its valence shell. This applies from non-metals to metalloids to metals. In this case, sulfur can have <span>more than 8 electrons in its valence when it acquires a larger state specifically in an ionic state. For example SO4 2- where the 2- adds to the number of valence electrons</span>

What evidence supports a conservation law? 6 CO2 → C6H12O6 6 O2 6 CO2 6 H2O light → C6H12O6 6 O2 6 H2O light → C6H12O6 6 O2 6 CO

The law of conservation has been stated that the mass and energy has neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.

The law of conservation has been evident when there has been an equal number of atoms of each element in the chemical reaction.

<h3>Conservation law</h3><h3 />

The given equation has been assessed as follows:

$\rm 6\;CO_2\;\rightarrow\;C_6H_1_2O_6$

The reactant has absence of hydrogen, while hydrogen has been present in the product. Thus, the reaction will not follow the law of conservation.

$\rm 6\;O_2\;+\;+\;6\;CO_2\;+\;6\;H_2O\;+\;Light\;\rightarrow\;C_6H_1_2O_6$

The number of atoms of each reactant has been different on the product and the reactant side. Thus, the reaction will not follow the law of conservation.

$\rm 6\;O_2\;+\;6\;H_2O\;+\;Light\;\rightarrow\;C_6H_1_2O_6$

The reactant has the presence of carbon, while it has been absent in the reactant. Thus, the reaction will not follow the law of conservation.

$\rm 6\;O_2\;+\;6\;CO_2\;\rightarrow\;3\;C_6H_1_2O_6\;+\;3\;O_2$

The product has the presence of hydrogen, while it has been absent in the reactant. Thus, the reaction will not follow the law of conservation.

What is the molarity of 10g of carbon in a 500L solution?

Zolol [24]

Answer:

Molarity is the number of moles in a liter of a substance.

Molarity= Mole/volume

Mass= 10g

Molar mass of Carbon=12g

To calculate the mole we use the formula: mole= mass/molar mass

Mole = 10g/12g

Mole = 0.83

Molarity= 0.83/500 =0.0017moles per liter

What is the final pressure of a system (atm) that has the volume increased from 0.75 l to 1.1 l with an initial pressure of 1.25

lana66690 [7]

Boyle's law states that pressure is inversely proportional to volume of gas at constant temperature
PV = k
where P - pressure , V - volume and k - constant
P1V1 = P2V2
where parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation
substituting these values in the equation
1.25 atm x 0.75 L = P x 1.1 L
P = 0.85 atm
final pressure is B) 0.85 atm
