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!

Which of the following samples would be the most compressible?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

CO2 (g)

Explanation:

In solids the interatomic or intermolecular space is least . It is most pronounced in gases . That is why inter molecular or interatomic attraction is least in gases . That is why gas flows .

Hence , when we try to compress a gas , due to inter molecular space , it is most likely to get compressed . It will be least compressed when we try to compress a solid because of lack of intermolecular space .

In a 1.0× 10–6 M solution of Ba(OH)2(aq) at 25 °C, identify the relative molar amounts of these species.
Marysya12 [62]
Thank you for posting your question here. Below is the solution:

HNO3 --> H+ + NO3- 
<span>HNO3 = strong acid so 100% dissociation </span>
<span>** one doesn't need to find the molarity of water since it is the solvent </span>

<span>0M HNO3 </span>
<span>1x10^-6M H3O+ </span>
<span>1x10^-6M NO3- </span>
<span>1x10^-8M OH-.....the Kw = 1x10^-14 = [H+][OH-] </span>
<span>you have 1x10^-6M H+ so, 1x10^-14 / 1x10^-6 = 1x10^-8M OH- </span>


<span>1x10^-6 Ba(OH)2 = strong base, 100% dissociation </span>
<span>1x10^-6M Ba2+ </span>
<span>2x10^-6M OH- since there are 2 OH- / 1 Ba2+ </span>
<span>0M Ba(OH)2 </span>
<span>5x10^-9M H3O+</span>
