Answer:
Explanation:
The octet rule does not always refer to a stable arrangement of eight valence electrons because there are some element that do not have eight valence electrons yet they are stable. for example;
i) Helium, It has two valence electrons and it is a stable gas.
ii) Boron triflouride (BF3); it has six valence electrons (deficit valence electron) yet it is also stable.
iii) Phosphorus pentachloride (PCl5); it has more than eight valence electron and it is also stable.
For these few reasons it is not always advisable to say octet arrangement refer to stable eight valence electrons.
Answer:
2.1 moles of water formed.
Explanation:
Given data:
Moles of water formed = ?
Moles of Ni(OH) = 4.20 mol
Solution:
Chemical equation:
2Ni(OH) → Ni₂O + H₂O
Now we will compare the moles of Ni(OH) with water.
Ni(OH) : H₂O
2 : 1
4.20 : 1/2×4.20 = 2.1 mol
2.1 moles of water formed.
Explanation:
There are two aspects of a reaction:
Thermodynamics:
Combustion of the compound is reaction with oxygen.
The carbohydrates contain more content of oxygen as compared to fats.
Hence, carbohydrates have lot of oxygen content which are already partially oxidized as compared to fats. Hence, combustion of the carbohydrates is a faster process.
Kinetics:
The molecular reacts also shows that the combustion of the carbohydrates is a faster process.
Osmosis is the diffusion of water from a high concentration to a lower concentration
