Answer: Option (4) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A mixture is defined as a substance that contains two or more different substance that are physically mixed with each other.
If solute particles are evenly distributed in a solvent then it is known as a homogeneous mixture.
For example, salt dissolved in water is a homogeneous mixture.
If solute particles are unevenly distributed into the solvent then it is known as a heterogeneous mixture.
For example, sand in water is a heterogeneous mixture.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement a mixture must contain at least two different substances, is correct about mixtures.
1. carbon lies in the 2nd period where silicon in the third period.
2. carbon is a non metal whereas silicon is a metalloid.
3. there are only 3 isotopes of carbon and 23 isotopes of silicon
4. size of silicon atom is larger
5. silicon is heavier than carbon.
Answer:
One triple bond and four non bonding electrons
Explanation:
In considering the lewis structure of carbon monoxide, we must remember that the molecule contains a total of ten valence electrons. Four are the valence electrons that are present on the valence shell of carbon while six are the valence electrons on oxygen. Some of these valence electrons participate in bonding in the CO molecule.
Out of the six valence electrons on oxygen, two valence electrons participate in bonding with carbon while the other four electrons remain localized on the oxygen atom as two lone pairs of electrons.
Hence there are four nonbonding electrons in the lewis structure of CO as well as one triple bond.
