In the correct lewis structure for the nitrate ion, no3 –­, nitrogen has how many covalent bonds?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Colt1911 [192]3 years ago
8 0

Answer :  The correct Lewis-dot structure of nitrate ion is shown below and the nitrogen has 4 covalent bonds.

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.  The number of valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, nitrate ion

As we know that nitrogen has '5' valence electrons and oxygen has '6' valence electron.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in NO_3^- = 5 + 3(6) + 1 = 24 electrons

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 8 number of bonding electrons and 16 number of non-bonding electrons.

The correct Lewis-dot structure of nitrate ion is shown below.

How do you Calculate the molarity of 250 ml of solution in which 2.7 g of MgCl2 are dissolved
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Molar mass of MgCl2 is 95 g/mol

Mg = 24 g/mol and Cl = 35.5 ×2 = 71 g/mol

moles = mass given/ molar mass

= 2.7/95 = 0.028 mol

volume = 250/1000 = 0.25 dm3 (ml is the same as dm3)

molarity of MgCl2 = moles/volume

= 0.028/0.25

= 0.112 mol/dm3

What is the normal pH range of a Base?
Karolina [17]

Answer:

7.35 - 7.45

Explanation:

The pH scale ranges from 0 (strongly acidic) to 14 (strongly basic or alkaline). A pH of 7.0, in the middle of this scale, is neutral. Blood is normally slightly basic, with a normal pH range of about 7.35 to 7.45. Usually, the body maintains the pH of blood close to 7.40.

Hope this helps

Consider the reaction: 2 H2O (g)--&gt;2 H2 (g) + O2 (g). ΔH=483.6 Kj/mol. If 2 moles of H2O (g) are converted H2(g) and O2(g) ag
denis-greek [22]
DE = dH - PdV 

<span>2 H2O(g) → 2 H2(g) + O2(g) </span>

<span>You can see that there are 2 moles of gas in the reactants and 3 moles of gas in the products. </span>

<span>1 moles of ideal gas occupies the same volume as 1 mole of any other ideal gas under the same conditions of temp and pressure. </span>

<span>Since it is done under constant temp and pressure that means the volume change will be equal to the volume of 1 mole of gas </span>

<span>2 moles reacts to form 3 moles </span>

<span>The gas equation is </span>

<span>PV = nRT </span>
<span>P = pressure </span>
<span>V = volume (unknown) </span>
<span>n = moles (1) </span>
<span>R = gas constant = 8.314 J K^-1 mol^-1 </span>
<span>- the gas constant is different for different units of temp and pressure (see wikki link) in this case temp and pressure are constant, and we want to put the result in an equation that has Joules in it, so we select 8.314 JK^-1mol^-1) </span>
<span>T = temp in Kelvin (kelvin = deg C + 273.15 </span>
<span>So T = 403.15 K </span>

<span>Now, you can see that PV is on one side of the equation, and we are looking to put PdV in our dE equation. So we can say </span>

<span>dE = dH -dnRT (because PV = nRT) </span>

<span>Also, since the gas constant is in the unit of Joules, we need to convert dH to Joules </span>

<span>dH = 483.6 kJ/mol = 483600 Joules/mol </span>

<span>dE = 483600 J/mol - (1.0 mol x 8.314 J mol^-1K-1 x 403.15 K) </span>
<span>dE = 483600 J/mol - 3351.77 J </span>
<span>dE = 480248.23 J/mol </span>
<span>dE = 480.2 kJ/mol </span>
