Answer:
Lewis structure of polyatomic formate anion.
Explanation:
To draw Lewis structure for any chemical species,
1)Count the total number of valence electrons present in it.
This can be obtained by adding valence electrons of each constituent atom.
2)Arrange those valence electrons in such a way that each atom should attain eight electrons around it to satisfy octet theory.
The structure of formate ion and its Lewis structure are shown below:
HCOO- is the formate ion.
It has total:
1+4+6+6+1 = 18 valence electrons.
Since, hydrogen has one, carbon has four and oxygen has six valence electrons and the charge of the anion is one.
Arrange this 18 electrons in such a way that each atom should get 8 electrons around it.
Resonance structures of formate ion:
Answer:
Ea=5.29 × 10⁴ J/mol
Explanation:
In going from 25 °C (298 K) to 35 °C (308 K), the rate of the reaction doubles. Since the rate of the reaction depends on the rate constant (k), this implies that the rate constant doubles. We can find the activation energy (Ea) using the two-point form of the Arrhenius equation.
