The Lewis structure/diagram for CH2O (aka Formaldehyde) can be written in either of the following ways shown in the picture.
The dots represent electrons in the valence shell of the atom (the outermost shell). The green dots are electrons that belong to the Oxygen atom, the blue belong to the Carbon atom, and the pink belong to the Hydrogen atoms.
Covalent bonds are bonds between atoms where atoms share electrons with each other. Atoms bond because they obey the octet rule ( the rule states that most atoms of main-group elements tend to want 8 electrons in their valence shells).
Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, Carbon has 4, and Hydrogen has 1. H does not follow the octet rule, but C and O do, so the atoms are arranged in this way so that the O and C atoms have a full octet of electrons in their valence.
The number of protons in an atom is equal the atomic number (= 50)
The sum of the Neutrons and Protons is the Atomic Mass (=125)
Neutrons + Protons=125
Plug in for the protons (50)
Neutrons +(50)=125
Then, once solved, we have Neutrons = 75
Assuming the atom is NOT an ion, the amount of electrons is equal to the number of protons. (protons=electrons=50=50)
Therefore:
There are 50 electrons, 50 protons, and 75 electrons.
Answer:
here...I helped u! XD
jkjk...I'll got to the other questions too...dw! XD
Explanation:
A cathode is the location in an electrolytic cell where reduction reactions take place.
An anode is the location in an electrolytic cell where oxidation reactions occur.
An electrolyte solution is any substance containing free ions that make the substance electrically conductive.
<span>An external electrical energy source like a battery or a transformer is used to drive the non-spontaneous reaction.</span>
The answer is : C. reduce their input force
they put wax on their kayak to make their boat cut smoothly through the water, which make it able to obtain further distance with less input force, which will increase it's overall speed
