What's the difference between rocks and minerals?A mineral is a naturally occurring, inorganic solid with a definite chemical composition and a crystalline structure formed by a geological processes. A rock is an aggregate of one or more minerals where as a rock may also include organic remains and mineraloids.

I hope this helps

A student assistant is cleaning up after a chemistry laboratory exercise and finds three one-liter bottles containing alcohol so
Svetllana [295]

The approximate alcohol content is 210 ml.

Explanation:

It can be deduced from the question that each bottle is of 1000ml or 1 litre.

The first bottle is one half full means it has 500 ml of solution and it has 20% alcohol in it. So volume of alcohol in the solution is

20/100*500

=100 ml

The first bottle is one fifth full, so the volume of mixture is 1/5th of 1000ml

so it is 200ml having 30% alcohol

30/100*200

= 60 ml

The third bottle is one tenth full so its volume is 1/10*1000

100 ml.  having 50% of alcohol

50/100*100

50 ml.

The alcohol content obtained from all these 3 litres is:

100+60+50

= 210 ml of alchohol is obtained from 800 ml of mixture.

Phosphorus oxychloride has the chemical formula POCl3, with P as the central atom. In order to minimize formal charge, how many
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Phosphorus makes 5 bonds with other atoms

Explanation:

POCl_{3} has total 32 number of valence electrons (P has 5 , O has 6 and Cl has 7 valence electrons).

These valence electrons are used to draw Lewis structure of POCl_{3}.

Formal charge on an atom = (no. of valence electrons of the atom)-(no. of covalent bonds attached to the atom)-(no. of electrons in lone pair of the atom)

Applying octet rule (atoms have eight electrons in their valence shell) and minimizing formal charge of POCl_{3}, it has been found that P makes total 5 bonds with rest of the atoms.

Lewis structure of POCl_{3} along with formal charge (in parentheses) has been given below.
