Answer:

The most important resonance structure is 4 (attached picture). Its bon order is \frac{7}{4} or 1\frac{3}{4}.

Explanation:

A picture with 4 forms of the perchlorate structure is attached. The first structure has simple bonds. The second structure contains a double bond, the third structure has two double bonds and the fourth structure has three double bonds.

Formal charge = group number of the periodic table - number of bonds (number of bonding electrons / 2) - number of non-shared electrons (lone pairs)

The formal charges in the first structure is +3 in chlorine and -1 in oxygen.

The formal charges in the second structure is +2 in chlorine, -1 in oxygen and 0 in the double bond oxygen.

The formal charges in the third structure is +1 in chlorine, -1 in the single bond oxygens and 0 in the double bond oxygens.

The formal charges in the fourth structure is 0 in chlorine, -1 in the single bond oxygen and 0 in the double bond oxygens.

The most important resonance structure is given by:

  • Most atoms have 0 formal charge.
  • Lowest magnitude of formal charges.
  • If there is a negative formal charge, it's on the most electronegative atom.

Hence, the fourth structure is the mosr important.

The bond order of the structure is:

Total number of bonds: 7

Total number of bond groups: 4

Bond order= \frac{7}{4} =1\frac{3}{4}

In france grapes are 1.83 euros per kilogram. What is the cost of grapes in dollars per pound if the exchange rate is 1.40 dollars per euro

1.83 euros x 1.40 = 2.56 dollars

1 pound = 0.454 kilogram

1.83 euros per kilogram = 2.56 x 0.454 = 1.16 dollars per pound

The addition of hydrochloric acid to a silver nitrate solution precipitates silver chloride according to the reaction:
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Enthalpy change for the reaction is -67716 J/mol.

Explanation:

Number of moles of AgNO_{3} in 50.0 mL of 0.100 M of AgNO_{3}

= Number of moles of HCl in 50.0 mL of 0.100 M of HCl

= \frac{0.100}{1000}\times 50.0 moles

= 0.00500 moles

According to balanced equation, 1 mol of AgNO_{3} reacts with 1 mol of HCl to form 1 mol of AgCl.

So, 0.00500 moles of AgNO_{3} react with 0.00500 moles of HCl to form 0.00500 moles of AgCl

Total volume of solution = (50.0+50.0) mL = 100.0 mL

So, mass of solution = (100.0\times 1.00) g = 100 g

Enthalpy change for the reaction = -(heat released during reaction)/(number of moles of AgCl formed)

= \frac{-m_{solution}\times C_{solution}\times \Delta T_{solution}}{0.00500mol}

= \frac{-100g\times 4.18\frac{J}{g.^{0}\textrm{C}}\times [24.21-23.40]^{0}\textrm{C}}{0.00500mol}

= -67716 J/mol

[m = mass, c = specific heat capacity, \Delta T = change in temperature and negative sign is included as it is an exothermic reaction]
