The image below shows two nitrogen atoms. For these two atoms to form a stable molecule, N2, how many electrons would have to be

part of covalent bonds

There are six electrons in the covalent bonds.

Two N atoms would be :N:· + ·:N:
An N₂ molecule would be :N:::N: or :N≡N:
This gives each N atom an octet of eight electrons in its valence shell.

The weight of a sack potato in india is 50kgf. will the weight increase or decrease in bhutan. why​
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Assume that the sack was initially close to the sea level. Its weight will increase even though its mass stays the same.

Explanation:

The weight of an object typically refers to the size of the planet's gravitational attraction (a force) on this object. That's not the same as the mass of the object. The weight of an object at a position depends on the size of the gravitational field there; on the other hand, the mass of the object is supposed to be same regardless of the location- as long as the object stays intact.

Let g denote the strength of the gravitational field at a certain point. If the mass of an object is m, its weight at that point will be m \cdot g.

Indeed, g \approx 9.81\; \rm N \cdot kg^{-1} on many places of the earth. However, this value is accurate only near the sea level. The equation for universal gravitation is a more general way for finding the strength of the gravitational field at an arbitrary height. Let G denote the constant of universal gravitation, and let M denote the mass of the earth. At a distance r from the center of the earth (where

\displaystyle g \approx \frac{G \cdot M}{r^2}.

The elevation of many places in Bhutan are significantly higher than that of many places in India. Therefore, a sack of potato in Bhutan will likely be further away from the center of the earth (larger r) compared to a sack of potato in India.

Note, that in the approximation, the value of g is (approximately, because the earth isn't perfectly spherical) inversely proportional to the distance from the center of the planet. The gravitational field strength

On the other hand, the weight of an object of fixed mass is proportional to the gravitational field strength. Therefore, the same bag of potatoes will have a smaller weight at most places in Bhutan compared to most places in India.

Having done the experiment, explain briefly how the mass of zinc not equal the mass of lead gained (hint: the periodic table)
masya89 [10]

Answer:

Due to the difference in the relative atomic masses and therefore, the molecular masses of Zn and Pb, one mole of Zn is about 3.2 times lighter than one mole of Pb

Explanation:

From the periodic table, we have;

The atomic number of zinc, Zn = 30

The atomic mass of zinc, Zn = 65.38 amu

The molar mass of zinc, Zn = 65.38 g/mol

The atomic number of lead, Pb = 82

The atomic mass of lead, Pb = 207.2 amu

The molar mass of lead, Pb = 207.2 g/mol

Therefore, whereby equal number of moles of Zn is lost and Pb is gained, we have;

Mass of 1 mole of Zn = 65.38 grams

Therefore, 1 gram of Zn = 1/65.38 moles = 0.0153 moles

0.12 grams of Zn = 0.12×0.0153 = 0.00184 moles of Zn

Given that equal number of moles of Zn and Pb are involved in the reaction, the number of moles of Pb gained = 0.00184 moles

The mass of Pb gained = Number of moles of Pb gained × Molar mass of Pb

The mass of Pb gained = 0.00184 × 207.2 = 0.38 g ≈ 0.4 g.

Amount of Pb gained = 0.43 g ≈ 0.4 g

What does a salt bridge do?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

A salt bridge or ion bridge, in electrochemistry, is a laboratory device used to connect the oxidation and reduction half-cells of a galvanic cell (voltaic cell), a type of electrochemical cell. It maintains electrical neutrality within the internal circuit.

Use MO diagrams to place B2+, B2, and B2- in order of (a) decreasing bond energy; (b) decreasing bond length.
shepuryov [24]

We use the MO diagram for a homonuclear diatomic species (since C and N are neighbours, we treat them as the "same").

The first two electrons contribute to bonding. The next two are anti-bonding.

The next six contribute to bonding, and the following six are anti-bonding.

So, if we start with CN+, which has 4+5-1 (8) valence electrons, we note that the first two electrons contribute to bonding, while the next two cancel this out; the next four contribute to bonding, so the bond order is 4/2 = 2.

If we add one more electron to get CN, there are now 5 bonding electrons, giving bond order 5/2=2.5.

Adding one more to give CN- would give the bond order 6/2 = 3. (If we added more electrons, each one would lower the bond order.)

Given a series of molecules with identical skeletal structures, the one with the highest bond order has the highest bond energy:

CN+ < CN < CN-

Lewis structures will verify that CN- has a triple bond, but they do not work particularly well for CN+ and CN.
