Explanation:
The overall charge on ClO3− is shown on the image attached to this answer. If we calculate the formal charges on each atom in the structure, we will notice that one oxygen atom has a formal charge of -1 while all other atoms have a formal charge of zero.
This gives the compound an overall charge of -1 as shown in the image attached to this answer. This is the correct Lewis structure for the compound ClO3− .
Explanation:
The formula mass of a molecule (also known as formula weight) is the sum of the atomic weights of the atoms in the empirical formula of the compound.
a. NO2
N = 14
O = 16
NO2 = 14 + (16 * 2) = 46 amu
b. C4H10
Empirical formular = C2H5
C = 12
H = 1
C2H5 = (12*1) + (1*5) = 12 + 5 = 17 amu
c. C6H12O6
Empirical formular = CH2O
C = 12
H = 1
O = 16
C2H5 = 12 + (1*2) + 16 = 30 amu
d MgBr2
Mg = 24
Br = 80
MgBr2 = 24 + (80*2) = 184 amu
e. HNO2
H = 1
N= 14
0 = 16
HNO2 = 1 + 14 + (16*2) = 47 amu
f. CBr4
C= 12
Br = 80
CBr4 = 12 + (80*4) = 332 amu
g. Cr(NO3)3
Cr = 52
N = 14
O = 16
Cr(NO3)3 = 52 + 3[14 + (3*16)] = 238 amu
Answer:
<u>False</u>
Explanation:
- The carbon cycle is a process which involves the flow of carbon through all of living things and life forms on Earth. The carbon cycle span over two segments: long-term and short-term, allowing for regulation of atmospheric carbon dioxide.
- While the short term segment deals with Earth forms that are more 'fleeting' like water nd air, the long-term affects the rock which take centuries to process through completely.
- In the short-term reservoir, carbon is stored in the atmosphere, oceans and biosphere with the ocean containing the largest amount of carbon. The biggest player and regulator of atmospheric carbon however is the ocean, not the biosphere. It is what links the long-term segment reserves to the short-term because carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere and converted to fossil fuels and rocks which are components of the long-term reserves.
I hope this explanation was clear and comprehensive.
