Explanation:

In a Lewis dot diagram, the electrons are arranged so that, when full, two electrons placed beside each other are on four sides of the element symbol.

An electron is 3-dimensional, so you can start on any side on a 2D diagram.

Continue this pattern depending on how many electrons you have:

When adding an electron after the first, it is placed on the next side going either counterclockwise or clockwise. Which ever direction you choose, be consistent.

After the fourth electron, so that one electron is on each side, place a dot beside your first electron and continue the pattern.

In the first 22.0 s of this reaction, the concentration of HBr dropped from 0.590 M to 0.465 M . Calculate the average rate of t

Alex

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

Consider the following reaction:

$2HBr(g)\rightarrow H_2(g)+Br_2(g)$

In the first 22.0 s of this reaction, the concentration of HBr dropped from 0.590 M to 0.465 M . Calculate the average rate of the reaction in this time interval.

Answer : The average rate of reaction is, $6.25\times 10^{-3}M/s$

Explanation :

The given chemical reaction follows:

$2HBr(g)\rightarrow H_2(g)+Br_2(g)$

The average rate of the reaction for disappearance of HBr is given as:

$\text{Average rate of disappearance of HBr}=-\frac{\Delta [HBr]}{\Delta t}$

where,

$C_2$ = final concentration of HBr = 0.465 M

$C_1$ = initial concentration of HBr = 0.590 M

$\Delta t$ = change in time = 22.0 s

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Average rate of reaction}=-\frac{(0.465-0.590)M}{20.0s}\\\\\text{Average rate of reaction}=6.25\times 10^{-3}M/s$

Hence, the average rate of reaction is, $6.25\times 10^{-3}M/s$
