Draw the lewis structure of the hypochlorite ion clo- . include lone pairs

Chemistry

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]3 years ago

Solution:- Hypochlorite ion ClO^- has one Cl and one O atom. Cl has 7 valence electrons and O has 6 valence electrons. Since there is one negative charge on the ion,

total valence electrons = 7 + 6 +1 = 14

(note:- if there is negative charge then it is added  and if there is positive charge then it is subtracted while calculating the valence electrons)

Both Cl and O atoms wants to complete their octet and so for this we put a single bond between them. Single bond means two electrons, so the remaining electrons would be 14 - 2 = 12

It means 12 electrons will be placed as lone pair of electrons. To complete the octet, we put 6 dots around each of the atom. Oxygen is more electron negative than Cl, so we show the -1 charge for oxygen.

The following reaction occurs in aqueous solution: NH4 + (aq) + NO2 - → N2 (g) + 2H2O (l) The data below is obtained at 25°C.
GREYUIT [131]

Answer: The order with respect to NH_4^+ is 1.

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

NH_4^++NO_2^-\rightarrow N_2+2H_2O

Rate=k[NH_4^+]^x[NO_2^-]^y

k= rate constant

x = order with respect to NH_4^+

y = order with respect to ANO_2^-

n = x+y = Total order

From trial 1: 3.2\times 10^{-3}=k[0.0100]^x[0.200]^y    (1)

From trial 2: 6.4\times 10^{-3}=k[0.0200]^x[0.200]^y    (2)

Dividing 2 by 1 :\frac{6.4\times 10^{-3}}{3.2\times 10^{-3}}=\frac{k[0.0100]^x[0.2000]^y}{k[0.0200]^x[0.200]^y}

2=2^x,2^1=2^x therefore x=  1

Thus order with respect to NH_4^+ is 1.

Mario uses a hot plate to heat a beaker of 50mL of water. He used a thermometer to measure the temperature of the water. The wat
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

The boiling point decreases as the volume decreases.

Explanation:

The Temperature - Volume law otherwise called as Charles law is applied, which says that the volume of the given gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to the temperature measured in Kelvin. As the volume increases, the temperature also increases, if the volume decreases, then the temperature also decreases.

As per the Charles law, here the volume is decreased from 50 ml to 25 ml so the boiling point also decreases.

If 18.7ml of 0.01500M aqueous HCl is required to titrâtes 15.00ml of an aqueous solution of NaOH to the equivalence point, what
sweet [91]

Answer:

0.0187 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced neutralization reaction

NaOH + HCl ⇒ NaCl + H₂O

Step 2: Calculate the reacting moles of HCl

18.7 mL of 0.01500 M HCl react.

0.0187 L × 0.01500 mol/L = 2.81 × 10⁻⁴ mol

Step 3: Calculate the reacting moles of NaOH

The molar ratio of HCl to NaOH is 1:1. The reacting moles of NaOH are 1/1 × 2.81 × 10⁻⁴ mol = 2.81 × 10⁻⁴ mol.

Step 4: Calculate the molarity of NaOH

2.81 × 10⁻⁴ moles are in 15.00 mL of NaOH.

[NaOH] = 2.81 × 10⁻⁴ mol/0.01500 L = 0.0187 M

Why are nutrient molecules important?
ycow [4]

Answer : Option A) The body breaks down the molecules into molecules they need.

Explanation : Nutrient molecules are important because the body breaks the nutrient molecules and convert it into the absorb-able molecule that can generate energy for doing the activities of the body.

Nutrients are taken in the body in the form of carbohydrates which later on gets broken into glucose molecules and generates energy, proteins which is decomposed into amino acids, fats breaks down into fatty acids, minerals and salts are also nutrients which is essential nutrient for body.
