Yes, because people tend to move toward better weather and climate. People follow food, and people follow jobs.

When an alkaline earth metal, a, reacts with a halogen, x, the formula of the covalent compund formed should be a2x?

Ierofanga [76]

Alkaline earth metal are the elements present in II group in the periodic table and are known as 'Metals' and have a charge of +2.

Alkaline earth metals - Be , Mg Ca, Sr , Ba, Ra

Halogens are present in VII A group in the periodic table and are 'Non-metals' and have a charge of -1.

Halogens - F, Cl, Br, I, At

When Alkaline earth metal (metals) combine with Halogens (non-metals) the compound formed will be ionic compound and the formula of the compound will be based on the charges of the element.

When we write the formula of the ionic compound the charges of the elements get criss crossed.

For example - Mg (Alkaline earth metal) have a charge of +2 and Cl (Halogen) have a charge of -1 and when they combine to form the formula their charges get criss crossed and we will get $Mg_{1}Cl_{2}$ or $MgCl_{2}$

When an alkaline earth metal, A, reacts with a halogen, X, the formula of the Ionic compound formed should be $AX_{2}$

Question 10

eduard

Answer:

C. Biodiesel made from plant oil.

Explanation:

The type of vegetable oil used in production greatly affects the performance of biodiesel in the winter. The less saturated the fat, the better the performance in winter time. Canola oil works very well for low temperature biodiesel, and palm oil is among the worst for cold weather performance.

Hope this helped!!!

Draw the best Lewis structure for NH3 by filling in the bonds, lone pairs, and formal charges. (Assign bonds, lone pairs, radica

kiruha [24]

Answer : The Lewis-dot structure of $NH_3$ is shown below.

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, $NH_3$

As we know that hydrogen has '1' valence electron and nitrogen has '5' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $NH_3$ = 5 + 3(1) = 8

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 6 number of bonding electrons and 2 number of non-bonding electrons.

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

Formula for formal charge :

$\text{Formal charge}=\text{Valence electrons}-\text{Non-bonding electrons}-\frac{\text{Bonding electrons}}{2}$

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

$\text{Formal charge on }H_1=1-0-\frac{2}{2}=0$

$\text{Formal charge on }H_2=1-0-\frac{2}{2}=0$

$\text{Formal charge on }H_3=1-0-\frac{2}{2}=0$

Hence, the Lewis-dot structure of $NH_3$ is shown below.

What elements are being reduced and oxidized in this chemical formula?

dangina [55]

Answer: The element Na (Sodium) is getting oxidized and Hydrogen is getting reduced.

Explanation:

Oxidation reactions are the reactions in which addition of oxygen takes place.

Reduction reactions are the reactions in which loss of oxygen takes place.

For a given reaction:

$2Na(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_2(g)+2NaOH(aq.)$

Sodium is getting oxidized because there is an addition of reaction with that element.

Hydrogen is getting reduced because there is a removal of oxygen with that element.
