How many lone pairs are around the central atom in the Lewis formula for the
1 answer:
Answer:
The answer to your question is None, sulfur share of its electrons
Explanation:
Just remember:
Sulfur, S, has 6 electrons in its outermost shell
Hydrogen, H, has 1 electron in its outermost shell
Oxygen, O, has 6 electrons in its outermost shell
See the picture below
The electrons of sulfur are in blue
The electrons of oxygen are in red
The electron in hydrogen is in yellow
Sulfur is the central atom and it shares all its electrons with the oxygen.

Answer: Option A: HCO3-(aq.)
Reason:
From the reaction, it can be seen that following reaction occurs in forward direct
HCO3-(aq) + H2O(l) → H2CO3(aq) + OH-(aq)
In above forward reaction, HCO3- accepts proton from H2O to generate H2CO3. Thus, according to Lowry and Bronsted theory of acid-base, HCO3- is a base, while H2CO3 is a conjugate acid.
