Answer: 8 dots would be needed to represent the outer electrons for an atom of neon in an electron dot diagram.

Explanation:

Electron-dot diagram is also known as Lewis-dot structure. It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.  The valence electrons are represented by 'dot'.

As atomic number of neon is 10 and we know that neon has 10 electrons with electronic configuration of 2,8 and thus has '8' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons is 8 and 8 dots would be needed to represent the outer electrons for an atom of neon in an electron dot diagram.

A certain compound is made up of one carbon (c) atom, two bromine (br) atoms, and one oxygen (o) atom. what is the chemical form
padilas [110]
Answer:
           Chemical Formula  =  COBr₂

           Structural Formula  =  Attached Below

           IUPAC Name  =  Carbonic Dibromide

           Common Name  =  Bromophosgene

As we know Carbon has the tendency to form four covalent bonds, Oxygen can form two covalent bonds and Bromine can form a single bond. Keeping this in mind we can say that in given compound carbon is forming two single bonds with two bromine atoms and a double bond with oxygen atom. Therefore, the valencies of all elements in the given compound are satisfied and completed.

If a car can go from 0 to 60 mi/hr in 8.0 seconds, what would be its final speed after 5.0 seconds if its starting speed were 50
tangare [24]

Answer:

87.5 mi/hr

Explanation:

Because a = Δv / Δt (a = vf - vi/ Δt), we need to find the acceleration first to know the change in velocity so we can determine the final velocity.

vf = 60 mi/hr

vi = 0 mi/hr

Δt = 8 secs

a = vf - vi/ Δt

= 60 mi/hr - 0 mi/hr/ 8 secs

= 60 mi/hr / 8 secs

= 7.5 mi/hr^2

Now that we know the acceleration of the car is 7. 5 mi/hr^2, we can substitute it in the acceleration formula to find the final velocity when the initial velocity is 50 mi/hr after 5 secs.

vi = 50 mi/ hr

Δt = 5 secs

a = 7.5 mi/ hr^2

a = vf - vi/ Δt

7.5 = vf - 50 mi/hr / 5 secs

37.5 = vf - 50

87.5 mi/ hr = vf
