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.
Answer:
ΔS° = - 47.2 J/mol.K
Explanation:
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
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.
