<span>The solid lines between N and Mg are actually ionic bonds. N has 5 valence electrons (2 of which are paired). Of the 3 that are unpaired, 2 are part of covalent bonds with adjacent carbon atoms. N accepts an extra electron to complete its octet, but gets a formal charge of -1. This allows for formation of an ionic bond with Mg, which is +2. Two of these charged N atoms therefore neutralize the charge of the central Mg. As for the coordinate (dative) covalent bonds, Mg has empty orbitals - the ionic bonds with the charged N atoms give it only 4/8 possible valence electrons.
The other two N atoms (dotted lines) have a formal charge of 0 since they form three covalent bonds with adjacent carbon atoms, but they still have a lone pair. Therefore, just to improve stability, each of these N atoms can "donate" its lone pair to Mg in order to complete its octet.
I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!

Answer:
Positive charges are eliminated by creating lithium vacancies, and for every Ca2+ ion added, a single lithium vacancy is formed.
Explanation:
The addition of calcium oxide as an impurity to lithium oxide creates an interstices due to the replacement of the Lithium ion by calcium ion. The creation of interstices is as a result of the replacement of the positive ions (Lithium by calcium). To make the reaction neutral, these replacements must occur when the interstices are formed
Iron oxide is rust. So oil would be an inhibitor.
To calculate the moles of AgNO3 in a solution, we need to know the volume and concentration of the solution.
Moles of AgNO3 = Volume of AgNO3 solution (L) * concentration of AgNO3 solution (M or mole/L) = 1.50 L * 0.050 M = 0.075 mole.
So 0.075 moles of AgNO3 are present in 1.50 L of a 0.050 M solution.
