You just look at what vertical row that silicon is, and every element that is in the same vertical row as silicon will have the same lewis dot structure...and this applyes for most elements on the periodic table of elements.                        
 - C, Ge,Sn, Pb:                                                                                                  
all these elements are in the same column, and therefore have the same number of valence electrons

Answer:

Carbon (C), Germanium (Ge), Tin (Sn), Lead (Pb), and Flerovium (Fl)

Explanation:

Silicon is the element of fourteenth group and third period. The electronic configuration of Silicon is - 2, 8, 4 or 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^2

There are 4 valence electrons of silicon.

Only the valence electrons are shown by dots in the Lewis structure.  

As, stated above, there are four valence electrons of silicon, so in the Lewis structure, four dots are made around the silicon (Si) symbol.

Similarly, the other members of the group 14 have four valence electrons and will have same valence electrons as silicon.

<u>So, the elements are:- Carbon (C), Germanium (Ge), Tin (Sn), Lead (Pb), and Flerovium (Fl)</u>

If 3.5 grams of NaN3 decomposed, how many grams of N2 would be produced?
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

5.25 moles.

Explanation:

The decomposition reaction of NaN₃ is as follows :

2NaN_3(s)\rightarrow 2Na(s)+3N_2(g)

We need to find how many grams of N₂ produced in the process.

From the above balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that the ratio of moles of sodium azide and nitrogen gas are 2 : 3.

2 moles of sodium azide decomposes to give 3 moles of nitrogen gas. So,

3.5 moles of sodium azide decomposes to give \dfrac{3}{2}\times 3.5=5.25 moles of nitrogen gas.

Hence, the number of moles produced is 5.25 moles.

You have to prepare some 2 M solutions, with 10 g of solute in each. What volume of solution will you prepare, for each solute b
alexdok [17]

Answer:

             0.045 L  or 45 mL

Explanation:

Moles = Mass/M.Mass

Moles = 10 g / 109.94 g/mol

Moles = 0.09 moles

Also,

Molarity = Moles / Vol in L

Or,

Vol in L = Moles / Molarity

Vol in L = 0.09 mol / 2 mol/L

Vol in L = 0.045 L
