Answer:
The most important resonance structure is 4 (attached picture). Its bon order is
or
.
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=

To determine the k for the second condition, we use the Arrhenius equation which relates the rates of reaction at different temperatures. We do as follows:
ln k1/k2 = E / R (1/T2 - 1/T1) where E is the activation energy and R universal gas constant.
ln 1.80x10^-2 / k2 = 80000 / 8.314 ( 1/723.15 - 1/593.15)
k2 = 0.3325 L / mol-s
Always remember that pH + pOH = 14
Here, you have a pOH of 11.24, so you replace it in the equation, and u get:
pH + 11.24 = 14
Then, You move 11.24 to the other part. and moving from a part to another change the sign of the equation. And you get:
pH = 14 - 11.24 = 2.76
So, the pH of a solution that has a pOH of 11.24 is pH = 2.76
Hope this Helps :)
