We are told we have an oxyacid of the formula HOFO. We will assume the atoms are in this order and will draw a proper lewis structure for this compound by first drawing bonds between each of the 4 atoms and then place the remaining electron pairs on each atom:
.. .. ..
H - O - F - O:
·· ·· ··
We can calculate the formal charge of an atom using the following formula:
Formal charge = [# of valence electrons] - [# of non-bonded electrons + # of bonds]
H: Formal charge = [1]-[0+1] = 0
O: Formal charge = [6]-[4+2] = 0
F: Formal charge = [7]-[4+2] = +1
O: Formal charge = [6]-[6+1] = -1
As we can see the overall charge of the molecule is neutral since the fluorine as a +1 charge and the oxygen a -1 charge.

Answer:
Q = 2647 J
Explanation:
Specific heat capacity is the amount of energy required by one Kg of a substance to raise its temperature by 1 °C.
In thermodynamics the equation used is as follow,
Q = m Cp ΔT
Where;
Q = Heat = ?
m = mass = 660 g
Cp = Specific Heat Capacity = 0.3850 J.g⁻¹.°C⁻¹
ΔT = Change in Temperature = 23.35 °C - 12.93 °C = 10.42 °C
Putting values in eq. 1,
Q = 660 g × 0.3850 J.g⁻¹.°C⁻¹ × 10.42 °C
Q = 2647 J
Answer:
Each row is called a period. Each column is called a group or family.
Explanation:
The diatomic molecule H2 has an extremely low boiling point because only weak Vander waals forces are present between the atoms of hydrogen molecule. This weak inter-molecular forces are easily broken when heat is apply resulting in low boiling point.
