Answer:
Here's how I would do it.
Explanation:
A Lewis structure shows the valence electrons surrounding the atoms.
1. Identify the central atoms
The central atoms are the least electronegative atoms (C).
I chose as my central atoms a chain of four C atoms: C-C-C-C
I stuck the most electronegative atom (O) at the end of the chain:
C-C-C-C-O
2. Complete the structure
The hydrogen atoms must be terminal. Add enough to give every atom an octet.
You should get a structure like the one below
Answer:
Cr 6+ & SO4 2-
Explanation:
Sulfate is a polyatomic ion that has a charge of 2-. There are three of them in the chemical formula so it equates to a 6- total charge. Thus, chromium must have a 6+ charge to give the compound a neutral charge.
2 C2H2 + 5 O2 --> 4 CO2 + 2 H2O
2.35 mol C2H2 - x mol O2
2 mol C2H2 - 5 mol O2

answer: 5.875 mol
S + 2e⁻ → S²⁻ (sulfur will gain electrons)
Mg - 2e⁻ → Mg²⁺ (magnesium will lose electrons)
Magnesium is a metal which tends to give electrons which are received by the sulfur, which is a nonmetal and tends to gain electrons.
