A) LiAlH4
b) Ph(3)SnH
c)Na in dry ether(Wurtz reaction)
Depends on what the problems are, you are going to have to be a bit more specific, Young Padawan
<span>Carbon must share 4 electrons total with the the two Oxygen atoms in order to fill it's outer electron shell, and each Oxygen atom must share 2 electrons with the Carbon atom to fill their electron shells. Therefore, in total 8 electrons must be shared (4+2+2=8)</span>
<em><u>Protons</u></em><em><u> = Positive Charge</u></em>
<em><u>Neutrons</u></em><em><u> = Neutral Charge/No Charge</u></em>
<em><u>Electrons</u></em><em><u> = Negative Charge</u></em>
<em>This one's simple: electrons have a negative charge, protons have a positive charge and neutrons — as the name implies — are neutral.</em>
<u><em>Protons</em></u>
<em>Elements are differentiated from each other by the number of protons within their nucleus. For example, carbon atoms have six protons in their nucleus. Atoms with seven protons are nitrogen atoms. The number of protons for each element is known as the atomic number and does not change in chemical reactions. In other words, the elements at the beginning of a reaction -- known as the reactants -- are the same elements at the end of a reaction -- known as the products.</em>

<em><u>Neutrons</u></em>
<em>Although elements have a specific number of protons, atoms of the same element may have different numbers of neutrons and are termed isotopes. For example, hydrogen has three isotopes, each with a single proton. Protium is an isotope of hydrogen with zero neutrons, deuterium has one neutron, and tritium has two neutrons. Although the number of neutrons may differ between isotopes, the isotopes all behave in a chemically similar manner.</em>

<u><em>Electrons</em></u>
<em>Electrons are not bound as tightly to the atom as protons and neutrons. This allows electrons to be lost, gained or even shared between atoms. Atoms that lose an electron become ions with a +1 charge, since there is now one more proton than electrons. Atoms that gain an electron have one more electron than protons and become a -1 ion. Chemical bonds that hold atoms together to form compounds result from these changes in the number and arrangement of electrons.</em>
