Answer :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

The given molecule is, $BeF_2$

Beryllium has '2' valence electrons and fluorine has '7' valence electrons. Beryllium is the central atom and fluorine is the terminal atom.

Total number valence electrons in $BeF_2$ = 2 + 2(7) = 16

According to the Lewis-dot structure, there are '4' number of bonding electrons and 12 number of non-bonding electrons (lone-pair).

The Lewis-dot structure is shown below.

Answer:

The correct option is C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The reaction is

$C_{16}H_{32}O_2(g) + 23O_2(g) \to 16 CO_2(g) + 16 H_2O(l)$

Generally $\Delta H = \Delta U + \Delta N* RT$

Here $\Delta H$ is the change in enthalpy

$\Delta U$ is the change in the internal energy

$\Delta N$ is the difference between that number of moles of product and the number of moles of reactant

Looking at the reaction we can discover that the elements that was consumed and the element that was formed is $O_2$ and $CO_2$ and this are both gases so the change would occur in the number of moles

$\Delta H = \Delta U + [16 -23]* RT$

$\Delta H = \Delta U -7RT$

The negative sign in the equation tell us that the enthalpy $\Delta_r H$ would be less than the Internal energy $\Delta_r U$

Determine the mass in grams of 3.75 x 10^21 atoms of zinc. (the mass of one mole of zinc is 65.39 g)

Nastasia [14]

Answer: The mass in $3.75 \times 10^{21}$ atoms of zinc is 0.405 g.

Explanation:

Given: Atoms of zinc = $3.75 \times 10^{21}$

It is known that 1 mole of every substance contains $6.022 \times 10^{23}$ atoms. So, the number of moles in given number of atoms is as follows.

$Moles = \frac{3.75 \times 10^{21}}{6.022 \times 10^{23}}\\= 0.622 \times 10^{-2}\\= 0.0062 mol$

As moles is the mass of a substance divided by its molar mass. So, mass of zinc (molar mass = 65.39 g/mol) is calculated as follows.

$Moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\0.0062 mol = \frac{mass}{65.39 g}\\mass = 0.405 g$

Thus, we can conclude that the mass in $3.75 \times 10^{21}$ atoms of zinc is 0.405 g.

Once an enzymatic reaction is completed, the enzyme releases what?

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Once an enzymatic reaction is completed, the enzyme releases substrates.

Explanation:

The enzyme will always return to its original state at the completion of the reaction. One of the important properties of enzymes is that they remain ultimately unchanged by the reactions they catalyze. After an enzyme is done catalyzing a reaction, it releases its products (substrates).
