Since KOH is a strong base, the solution completely ionizes into K+ and OH- when in water. The reaction KOH --> K+ + OH- takes place. The concentration of [ OH- ] can then be used to calculate the pOH of the solution. pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 1.48 = 12.52

Lewis structure for nitrogen triiodide, NI(3)

Rasek [7]

Answer:

Lewis structure for nitrogen triiodide, $NI_3$ is given in the attachment.

Explanation:

Given:

The given compound is Nitrogen triiodide. In which 1 atom of Nitrogen combines with 3 atoms of Iodine. Both Nitrogen and Iodine are non-metals,So they form covalent bond by sharing of electrons.

The electron configuration of Nitrogen and Iodine is given below;

$N(7) = 1s^2,2s^22p^3\\I(53) = 1s^2,2s^22p^6,3s^23p^63d^{10},4s^24p^64d^{10},5s^25p^5$

There are 5 electrons in valance shell of Nitrogen atom and 7 electrons in valance shell of Iodine atom.

So, 3 atom of Iodine shares 1 electron with 1 electrons of Nitrogen.
