Answer:

See figure 1

Explanation:

For this question, we have to remember that in the lewis structures all atoms must have<u> 8 electrons</u>. And each atom would have a different value of <u>valence electrons</u>:

Carbon => 4

Oxygen=> 6

Hydrogen=> 1

Additionally, for the <u>hybridizations</u> we have to remember that:

Sp^3=> 4 single bonds

Sp^2=> 1 double bond

Sp^1=> 1 double bond

With this in mind, the formaldehyde and formic acid would have Sp^2 carbons and the ethanol an Sp^3 carbon.

Finally, for the oxidation state. We have to remember that <u>if we have more bonds with oxygen, we will have more oxidation</u>. Therefore, the carbon that has more oxidation is the one in the formic acid (we have several bonds with oxygen).

See figure 1

I hope it helps!

A student measures the mass of a 6.0 cm3 block of brown sugar to be 10.0 g. What is the density of the brown sugar?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

1.67g/cm3

Explanation:

The formula for density is d=\frac{m}{v} . The m variable stands for mass and the v variable stands for volume.

The mass of the brown sugar is 10.0g and the volume is 6.0cm3, so we can plug those values into the equation.

d=\frac{10g}{6cm^{3} }

d=1.67\frac{g}{cm^{3} }

Rounded to 3 significant figures, the density of the block of brown sugar is 1.67 g/cm3. If the mass is in grams and the volume is in cm3, the unit for the final answer is \frac{g}{cm^{3} } (grams per centimetres cubed).
