How many electrons are there in the valence shell of the oxygen atom of water? O a. 2 O 6.4 OC.6 O d. 8

Chemistry
1 answer:
denpristay [2]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

d. 8

Explanation:

Valence electrons of oxygen = 6

Valence electrons of hydrogen = 1  

The total number of the valence electrons  = 6 + 2(1) = 8

The Lewis structure is drawn in such a way that the octet of each atom and duet for the hydrogen in the molecule is complete.

In the water molecule,

<u>Oxygen has 2 bond pairs and two lone pairs which means that the total electrons in the valence shell is 8.</u>

Answer:

A new Dana system of classification contains 78 different classes of minerals based on composition and then further classified by type and group. To be considered a mineral, a substance must be an inorganic, naturally formed solid, with a specific chemical formula and a fixed internal structure. To test whether something is a mineral, there are several identification tests to which the substance is subjected, including its resistance to scratching, its density in comparison to water, its color, the degree of light it reflects, the color of the powdered mineral, its breakage pattern and its crystalline form.

Consider a solution containing 0.100 m fluoride ions and 0.126 m hydrogen fluoride. the concentration of hydrogen fluoride after
Nataly_w [17]
Fluorine ions reacts with Hydrogen chloride to form more hydrogen fluoride.
Therefore, moles of HCl = 0.005 l × 0.01 M = 5 ×10^-5 moles
The initial moles of Hydrogen fluoride will be;
 = 0.0126 M× 0.0250 = 0.00315 Moles
Moles of hydrogen fluoride after the addition of HCl 
= 0.00315 + 5.0× 10^-5 = 0.0032 moles 
Therefore, the concentration of Hydrogen chloride 
            = 0.0032 moles/ 0.030 L 
            = 0.107 M

A 100-watt light bulb radiates energy at a rate of 100 J/s. (The watt, a unit of power or energy over time, is defined as 1 J/s.
Semmy [17]

Answer

2.7956 * 10^19 photons

Givens

  • Wavelength = λ = 525 * 10^-9 meters  [1 nmeter = 1*10^-9 meters]
  • c = 3 * 10^8 meters
  • E = ???
  • W = 100  watts
  • t = 1 second
  • h= plank's Constant = 6.26 * 10^-34 J*s

Formula

E = h * c / λ

W = E / t

Solution

E = 6.26 * 10^-34 j*s * 3 * 10^8 m/s /525 * 10^-9 (m)

The meters cancel out. So do the seconds. You are left with Joules as you should be.

E =  3.577 * 10^-18 Joules

What you have found is the energy of 1 photon.

Now you have to find the Joules from the watts.

W = E/t

100 * 1 second = 100 joules

1 photon contains 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18 Joules

x photon = 100 joules                        

1/x = 3.577 * 10^-18 / 100                          Cross multiply

100 = 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18 * x                         Divide both sides by 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18

100/3.577 * 10 ^ - 18 = 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18x / 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18

2.7956 * 10^19 photons = x

14. Compare between the plasticity of edge and screw dislocations in BCC metals 15. Why does a screw dislocation in a BCC metal
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

14) The edge dislocation is more plastic than the screw dislocation

15) So as to form kinks that are fast moving

Explanation:

14) Edge and screw dislocations are the two main types of mobile dislocations

The three dimensional core of the screw dislocation prevents the slipping of the layers (one over the other) in a BCC metal such that kinks are required to be formed first  by thermal activation (heating) in order. The kinks are edge dislocation that move such that the screw dislocation moves forward

Hence, the edge dislocation is more plastic than the screw dislocation

15) The three dimensional structure of a screw dislocation acts like a wedge which resists the slipping of the layers in the BCC structure such that the screw dislocation needs to be highly thermally activated forming kinks before the surrounding layers can move.
