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.

 How much energy is needed to raise the temperature of 125g of water from 25.0oC to 35.0oC?  The specific heat of water is 4.184
Anvisha [2.4K]

Hello!

To find the amount of energy need to raise the temperature of 125 grams of water from 25.0° C to 35.0° C, we will need to use the formula: q = mcΔt.

In this formula, q is the heat absorbed, m is the mass, c is the specific heat, and Δt is the change in temperature, which is found by final temperature minus the initial temperature.

Firstly, we can find the change in temperature. We are given the initial temperature, which is 25.0° C and the final temperature, which is 35.0° C. It is found by subtract the final temperature from the initial temperature.

35.0° C - 25.0° C = 10.0° C

We are also given the specific heat and the grams of water. With that, we can substitute the given values into the equation and multiply.

q = 125 g × 4.184 J/g °C × 10.0° C

q = 523 J/°C × 10.0° C

q = 5230 J

Therefore, it will take 5230 joules (J) to raise the temperature of the water.

A decrease in the magnitude of velocity is called
IceJOKER [234]
<span>The answer is deceleration. Acceleration is the general term to refer to the change in velocity. Acceleration = change in velocity / change in time. When you want to highlight the fact that the change in velocity is a decrease in the magnitude, you can use the term deceleration, which means that the acceleration is negative.</span>
