Answer:

Explanation:

A single replacement or single displacement reaction is a reaction in which one substance replaces another.

A + BC → AC + B

The replacement of an ion in solution by a metal higher in the activity series is a special example of this reaction type.

The relative positions of the elements in the activity series provides the driving force for single displacement reactions.

A double replacement reaction is one in which there is an actual exchange of partners between reacting species. This reaction is more common between ionic substances;

AB + CD → AC + BD

Such reactions are usually driven by;

formation of precipitation
formation of water and a gaseous product

What are the formal charges on the sulfur (s), carbon (c), and nitrogen (n) atoms, respectively, in the resonance structure that

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Sulfur: -1

Carbon: 0

Nitrogen: 0

Explanation:

The thiocyanate ion SCN- can have only two resonance structures, which are:

S - C ≡ N <--------> S = C = N

In the first structure, we have one single bond and one triple bond, in this case, the negative charge is located in the sulfur. This is because Sulfur have 6 electrons and those electrons are present in the atom, (see picture below), and counting the electron that is sharing with the Carbon, the total electrons that sulfur has is 7 (It has one more than usual). Carbon and nitrogen are already stable with 0 of formal charge, because carbon can only have 4 electrons which 1 is sharing with sulfur and the other 3 with the nitrogen, and nitrogen have 5 electrons, three sharing with carbon and the other two kept it for itself.

In the second structure, the negative charge of the sulfur is transfered to the nitrogen, meaning that it has 6 electrons the nitrogen (formal charge -1) and carbon and sulfur with 4 and 6 electrons respectively.

Between these two structures, the most stable is the first one basically because Sulfur is a better nucleophile than the Nitrogen, and can form stronger hydrogen bond in acid, giving more stable structure.

Please help with my chemistry homework! : Fuel burns in a car engine. Describe how oxides of nitrogen are produced in a car engi

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Your statement is right.

Explanation:

When fuels are burned in vehicle engines, high temperatures are produced. At this high temperature, nitrogen and oxygen from the air combine with each other to produce nitrogen monoxide (NO). When this nitrogen monoxide is released in the air from vehicle exhaust systems, it combines with oxygen present in the air to form nitrogen dioxide (NO2).

frez [133]

To answer the question effectively, we will talk about the key words in the question.

ANTHROPOLOGY, SOCIOLOGY AND POLITICAL SCIENCE.

ANTHROPOLOGY; This is the study of human kinds in all times and places,it also entails humanistic study which includes our prehistoric origins and contemporary human diversity as well as topics like social change,globalization,human origin and the world history.

The activities that shows the nature and goals of anthropology includes;

- Looking at ones own culture in a more objective way like an outsider.

- Discovering the things that make people more different from one another.

- Producing new theories and knowledge about human home and their behaviors.

- Discovering/finding out what all people have in common.

There are four fields of anthropology; Linguistic anthropology, Biological anthropology, Archeology and cultural anthropology.

SOCIOLOGY; This is the scientific study of human civilization.

It is systemic and studies of groups and societies that people build

and the effect these have on their behavior.

Sociology greatly focuses on various social connections,

structures, organizations, processes and institutions.

The activities that show the goals and nature of sociology includes;

- Broadening our familiarity on facts about sociology.

- Critically studying the nature of humanity.

- Exposing our minds to the diverse perspectives on attaining the truth.

- Obtaining possible theories about the society.

- Understanding and appreciating that all things in the society are interdependent with each other.

Sociology brings together inputs that are composed of frequent forms and manners,they include; view points, consolidated values, attitudes and the norms of social institutions.

The different branches of sociology are; social psychology,social organisation, applied sociology, population studies, sociological theory and research,human ecology,social change.

POLITICAL SCIENCE; This is a discipline in academics that deals with the study of political processes, institutions, governments and behaviors of people.

It studies the complex behaviors of the people in power, various political actors, such as the government administration, opposition ad the subjects which are the masses.
