To illustrate the Lewis structure,
P has 5 valence electrons
O has 6 valence electrons (each for 4 oxygen)
And finally, for every negative charge, there is an additional valence electron
We should add these all up = 5 + 24 + 3 = 32 valence electrons
With this, we can be guided to illustrate the lewis structure as P as central atom and the 3 oxygen each with a single bond with P and 1 oxygen with a double bond with P. We place the valence electrons until octet rule is satisfied,
we will be left with 12 lone pairs for phosphate ion.
<em>K</em>_eq = 0.14
The chemical equation is
A ⇌ B
The equilibrium constant expression is
<em>K</em>_eq = [B]/[A]
If [A] = 7[B]
<em>K</em>_eq = [B]/{7[B]}= 1/7 = 0.14
<u>Given:</u>
Volume of HCl = 150 ml
Molarity of HCl = 0.10 M
<u>To determine:</u>
The # moles of HCl
<u>Explanation:</u>
The molarity of a solution is the number of moles of a solute dissolved in a given volume
In this case:
Molarity of HCl = moles of HCl/volume of the solution
moles of HCl = Molarity * volume = 0.10 moles.L-1 * 0.150 L = 0.015 moles
Ans: A)
Moles of HCl is 0.015
<u>Given:</u>
Initial temperature, T1 = 20 C
Final temperature, T2 = 40 C
<u>To determine:</u>
The temperature change
<u>Explanation:</u>
Convert degree C to Kelvin
Temperature in Kelvin = degree C + 273
T1 = 20 + 273 = 293 K
T2 = 40 + 273 = 313 K
Incremental temperature change = T2 - T1 = 313-293 = 20 K
Ans: The temperature change in kelvin is 20 K
