The answer is 2 pairs. The carbon atom has 4 electrons and oxygen atom has 6 electrons. The purpose of shared electron is to get 8 electrons at the outer layer. So the carbon atom needs to share 4 electrons which is 2 pairs with oxygen to be stable.

Identify the element of Period 2 which has the following successive ionization energies, in kJ/mol. IE1, 1314 IE2, 3389 IE3, 529
Elan Coil [88]
It’s fluorine it has a big jump from the 6th to 7th ionisation energy.

It’s electronic configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p5 as it has 9 electrons and 7 electrons in outermost shell.

Therefore it’s in group 7, as after the 7 electrons are removed, the 8th electron is removed from a quantum shell closer to the nucleus.

This results in greater ionisation energy due to stronger electrostatic forces of attraction between positively charge nuclei and electrons ( + shorter distance)

What is the molarity of a solution that contains 25 g of HCl in 150 mL of solution??
Stels [109]
To find molarity 
1) number of mol of solute.
Solute is HCl.
M(HCl)= 1.0+35.5 =36.5 g/mol

25g *1 mol/36.5 g = 25/36.5 mol HCl

2) Molarity is number of mole of the solute in 1 L solution.
150 mL = 0.150 L

(25/36.5 mol HCl )/(0.150 L) = 25/(36.5*0.150) ≈ 4.57≈4.6 mol/L

Which statement is true about a reaction represented by a chemical equation that shows energy as a reactant?
vovikov84 [41]
A. It absorbs energy.
reactants are located on the left side of the equation, meaning energy among with other reactants were needed to get the reaction going, so it absorbed energy, which is also the endothermic process. The opposite of that would be having energy on the right side with the products which means that the reaction would've released energy which is the exothermic process. Hope this helps!
