solution:

answer is two

explanation:

In sharing of electrons in the equation water each carbon atom and hydrogen atom share its one electron from its outermost orbit.

since carbon has seven electrons in its outermost orbit and it wants to get one electron to complete its octet.

while hydrogen atoms has one electron to its outermost orbit and it needs one electron to complete its duet.

similarly

second hydrogen atom do as the shame process as it also share one electron to carbon to complete its duet.

after the sharing of electrons both the atoms form molecule water which is stable.

Which equation represents a neutralization reaction?
Harrizon [31]

Answer: HCI + KOH → KCI + H20

Explanation:

HCI(aq) + KOH(aq) → KCI(aq) + H20(l)

Acid + base → Salt + Water.

The above is a neutralization reaction in which an acid, aqeous HCl reacts completely with an appropriate amount of a base, aqueous KOH to produce salt, aqueous KCl and water, liquid H2O only.

This is a neutralization reaction since, the hydrogen ion, H+, from the HCl is neutralized by the hydroxide ion, OH-, from the KOH to form the water molecule, H2O and salt, KCl only.

Over millions of years, the peat became covered with sand, clay and other minerals and the peat is converted into layers of sedimentary rocks. After a long time, different type of fossil fuels are formed.

What is the percentage strength (w/w) of a solution made by dissolving 62.5 g of potassium chloride in 187.5 ml of water?
kiruha [24]

Percent strength (% w/w) of a solution is defined as the amount of solute present in 100 g of the solution.

Given data:

Mass of the solute, potassium chloride = 62.5 g

Volume of water (solution) = 187.5 ml

We know that the density of water = 1 g/ml

Therefore, the mass corresponding to the given volume of water

= 187.5 ml * 1 g/1 ml = 187.5 g

We have a solution of 62.5 g of potassium chloride in 187.5 g water

Therefore, amount of solute in 100 g of water= 62.5 * 100/187.5 = 33.33

The percentage strength = 33.33 %

The use of lead paint in houses was banned in 1978 due to the health hazards associated with lead, specifically that high levels
arlik [135]

Environmental Chemistry studies the health hazards associated with lead, which  is dangerous to humans.

Environmental Chemistry studies chemicals present in air, water and soil and their  impact on humans and their environment.

Now, it was discovered that even low doses of lead particles in the paint when inhaled or ingested caused damaging effect to the body  such as Impaired balance, seizures, ataxia and even death.

With the role of Environmental chemists in thier research and findings, the world has been informed on the negative effect on the expose of lead and other heavy metals like it  to man and his environment.
