This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

Specify which atoms, if any, bear a formal charge in the Lewis structure given and the net charge for the species. Be sure to answer all parts.

:C\equiv N:

a. Formal charge C:___________.

b. Formal charge N:________.

d. Net charge:________.

Answer :

a. Formal charge C : (-1) charge

b. Formal charge N : (0) charge

d. Net charge : (-1) charge

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.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, CN^-

As we know that carbon has '4' valence electrons and nitrogen has '5' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in CN^- = 4 + 5 + 1 = 10

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 6 number of bonding electrons and 4 number of non-bonding electrons.

Now we have to determine the formal charge for each atom.

Formula for formal charge :

\text{Formal charge on C}=4-2-\frac{6}{2}=-1

\text{Formal charge on N}=5-2-\frac{6}{2}=0

Thus, the net charge will be = -1 + 0 = -1

Calculemos la formula empirica y molecular de carbonato de hierro Fe2(co3)3.Fe.38.3%C.12.3%.0.4 92% masa 292g
DENIUS [597]

Respuesta:

292 g / mol;

Por favor, consulte la explicación.

Explicación:

El número de átomos de cada elemento en el compuesto: Fe2 (co3) 3.

Fe = 2; C = 3; 0 = 3 * 3 = 9

Fe2 = 112 g / mol

C = 12 g / mol

O = 16 g /

Masa molecular = ((112 + (12 * 3) + (16 * 9)

= (112 + 36 + 144)

= 292 g / mol.

Total = 2 + 3 + 9 = 14

Fe2 = 112/292 * 100% = 38,356%

C = 36/292 * 100% = 12,328 * '

O = (16 * 9) / 292 * 100% = 49,32%
