Step-by-step explanation:

To draw a dot diagram of an atom, you locate the element in the Periodic Table and figure out how many valence electrons it has. Then you distribute the electrons as dots around the atom,

a. Silicon.

Si is in Group 14, so it has four valence electrons.

b. Xenon

Xenon is in Group 18, so it has eight valence electrons. We group them as four pairs around the xenon atom.

c. Calcium

Calcium is in Group 2, so it has two valence electrons. They are in a single subshell, so we write them as a pair on the calcium atom.

d. Water

Oxygen is in Group 16, so it has six valence electrons. The hydrogen atoms each contribute one electron, so there are eight valence electrons.

Chemists often use a dash to represent a pair of electrons in a bond.

Which of these solutions has the highest freezing point?

ANEK [815]

Answer: 1.0 M molecular sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁).

Explanation:

1) The depression of the freezing point of a solvent when you add a solute is a colligative property.

2) Colligative properties are those physical properties of solutions that depends on the number of solute particles dissolved into the solution.

3) The relation between the number of solute particles and the depresson of the freezing point is proportional: the greater the number of solute particles the greater the freezing point depression.

4) You need to find the solution with the highest freezing point, this is the solution in which the freezing point decreased the least.

5) Then, that is the solution with least number of solute particles.

6) Since all the given solutions have the same molarity (1.0 M), you only have to deal with the possible ionization of the different solutes.

7) NaCl, CaBr₂, AlBr₃, and KCl are ionic compounds, so each unit of them will ionize into two, three, four, and two ions, respectively, while sucrose, being a covalent compound does not dissociate.

Then, 1.0 M solution of sucrose will have less solute particles than the others, and will exhitibit the lowest freezing point depression, meaning that it will have the highest freezing point of the given solutions.

Gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s2, and gravity on the Moon is 1.6 m/s2.

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Mass is the same but it weights 64 Newtons

Explanation:

First of Mass is the same in any sort of gravity. Now let's calculate weight

W = MG

where W = Weight

M = Mass

G = Gravity

W = (40kg)(1.6)

W = 64

Sorry for the spelling mistakes, hope this helps

How many grams of ammonium chloride (gram formula mass= 53.5 g) are contained in .500 L of a 2.00 M solution?

Elza [17]

Answer:

53.5g of NH4Cl

Explanation:

First, we need to obtain the number of mole of NH4Cl. This is illustrated below:

Volume = 0.5L

Molarity = 2M

Mole =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole = 2 x 0.5

Mole = 1mole

Now, let us convert 1mole of NH4Cl to gram. This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of NH4Cl = 53.5g/mol

Number of mole = 1

Mass =?

Number of mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass = 1 x 53.5

Mass = 53.5g

Therefore, 53.5g of NH4Cl is contained in the solution.
