There are ________ unpaired electrons in the Lewis symbol for a nitride ion.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Anna71 [15]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

There are no unpaired electrons.

Explanation:

There are  no unpaired electrons in the Lewis symbol for a nitride ion({ N }^{ 3- }).The nitride ion has a charge of -3. The negative charge on the Nitride ion indicates a gain in electrons . Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons that is the number of electrons that are in its outer shell .The total number of electrons that the nitride ion has is equal to 5+3 = 8 electrons . Electrons usually appear in pairs and obey the octet rule therefore the nitride ion has four electron pairs no unpaired electrons.

boyakko [2]
The correct option is this: THE ORGANISM IS A PROKARYOTES.
There are basically two types of cells, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The prokaryotic cells are primitive cells which contain only a few materials which are not well organised. This type of cells is usually found in microscopic organisms. The cells lack organised nucleus and cell organelles which have membranes.<span />

If 500ml of H₂ gas at 600mmHg and 400ml of CO₂ gas at 700mmHg are mixed in a 1 lit vessel, find the total pressure of mixture of
seraphim [82]

Answer:

Total pressure increased

Explanation:

When gas C is added in the vessel then number of mole increases and number of collision depends on the number of molecules present in the vessel and on adding gas C ,mole also increases hence  number of collision increases therefore pressure also increases because number of collision increases.

Total pressure increases.

Calculate the standard molar enthalpy for the complete combustion of liquid ethanol (C2H5OH) using the standard enthalpies of fo
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Explanation:

For the reaction

C2H5OH (l) + 3 O2(g) = 2CO2(g) + 3 H2O

We can calculate the  standard molar enthalpy of combustion using the standard enthalpies of formation of the species involved in the reaction according to Hess law:

ΔHºc =  2ΔHºf CO2 (g) + 3ΔHºfH2O(l)  - ( ΔHºf C2H5OH (l) - 3ΔHºfO2 (g) )

( we were not give the water state but we know we are at standard conditions so it is in its liquid state )

The ΔHºfs can be found in appropiate reference or texts.

ΔHºc =  2ΔHºf CO2 (g)+ 3ΔHºfH2O(l)  - (  ΔHºf C2H5OH (l) -+3ΔHºfO2 (g) )

= [ 2 ( -393.52 ) + 3 ( -285.83 ) ] - [(  -276.2 + 0 ) ] kJ

ΔHºc =  -1368.33 kJ

A 0.1 mm sample of human blood has approximately 6000 red blood cells. An adult typically has 5.0 L of blood. How many red blood
olga55 [171]

 3.0 × 10¹¹ RBC's    (or)      3E11 RBC's


Solution:

Step 1: Convert mm³ into L;


As,


                                            1 mm³  =  1.0 × 10⁻⁶ Liters


So,


                                         0.1 mm³  =  X  Liters


Solving for X,


                       X  =  (0.1 mm³ × 1.0 × 10⁻⁶ Liters) ÷ 1 mm³


                       X  =  1.0 × 10⁻⁷ Liters


Step 2: Calculate No. of RBC's in 5 Liter Blood:


As given


                        1.0 × 10⁻⁷ Liters Blood contains  =  6000 RBC's


So,


                         5.0 Liters of Blood will contain  =  X  RBC's


Solving for X,


                      X  =  (5.0 Liters × 6000 RBC's) ÷ 1.0 × 10⁻⁷ Liters


                      X  =  3.0 × 10¹¹ RBC's


Or,


                     X  =  3E11 RBC's
