Answer:

If the protons in the atom outnumber the  electrons, the isotope has more positive charges than negative charges but If the number of electrons exceeds the number of protons, the ion charge will be negative.

Explanation:

The charge of an isotope is defined by how many more protons there are than electrons.

Or the other way around.

For example if there are 4 protons and 2 electrons, the ion charge is +2 because there are more protons.

If there are 4 electrons and 2 protons, the ion charge is -2 because there are more electrons.

The structure of Methanol (CH₃OH) is shown below. This structure contains 2 lone pair of electrons on oxygen (highlighted red). Electronic configuration of oxygen is,

                        Oxygen  =  8  =  1s², 2s², 2px², 2py¹, 2pz¹

There are six electrons in valence shell of oxygen, among these six electrons two electrons are unpaired and involved in forming covalent bond with hydrogen and carbon, while remaining 4 electrons in pair (i.e. 2s², 2px²) exists as lone pairs.

Using the thermodynamic information in the ALEKS Data tab, calculate the standard reaction entropy of the following chemical rea
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

ΔS° = - 47.2 J/mol.K

Explanation:

  • P4O10 + 6H2O → 4H3PO4

ΔS°= 4(S°mH3PO4) - 6(S°mH2O) - S°mP4O10

∴ S°mH2O(l) = 69.9 J/mol.K

∴ S°mP4O10 = 231 J/mol.K

∴ S°mH3PO4 = 150.8 J/mol.K

⇒ ΔS° = 4*(150.8) - 6*(69.9) - 231

⇒ ΔS° = - 47.2 J/mol.K

Goshia [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Mosquitoes transmit the virus as parasites which feed on the blood of host organisms and inject the virus during feeding.

Explanation:

According to the CDC, the seasonal West Nile virus is caused by the mosquitoes of freshwater transmit this disease to humans and others. These mosquitoes are feed on the birds and pick these viruses.

These viruses stick on mosquitoes and when they feed on the blood of humans they transmit these viruses by injecting viruses into the blood of humans.
