Answer:

Odd answer choices, but I would put "It shows you that water is a reversible reaction, which contains hydrogen and hydroxide reactions."

Explanation:

The first choice is weird, although water can be written as HOH that doesn't help you understand acids and bases.

The third choice doesn't do that either, and there are more ways for water to be formed than that.

The second choice helps you understand acids and bases, specifically, in water's self-ionization process. It also shows you that it is neutral because it is formed from Hydrogen, which is usually present in acids, and a Hydroxide group, which is usually present in bases.

A. Describe the molecule chlorine dioxide, CIO in terms of three possible resonance structures.

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The compound ClO2 has 19 valence electrons. ClO2 is a bent molecule with tetrahedral electron pair geometry but has two lone pairs of electrons. This is indicated by the presence of four electron pairs on the outermost shell of the central atom.

The molecule has an odd number of valence electrons, hence, it is generally regarded as a paramagnetic radical. None of the proposed Lewis structures for the molecule is satisfactory because none of them obeys the octet rule.

From the images attached, one can easily see that the electron dots around the oxygen and chlorine atoms does not satisfy the octet rule in all the resonance structures shown.

How many molecules are contained in 0.800 mol o2?

Ksenya-84 [330]

Multiply .800 moles of O2 by Avagadro's number divided by 1 mole. This will get rid of the moles on the bottom and leave you with molecules. So technically .800 times 6.02x10^23.

What do all physical changesin science have in common

Eddi Din [679]

They don't change what the substance really is unlike chemical change. They chemical formula of the substance stays the same even though the substance can go under shape change.
