What is the formal charge of carbon in CO?|C≡O|​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Anastasy [175]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

FC of C = -1

General Formulas and Concepts:

  • Lewis Dot Structures
  • Resonance Structures
  • Formal Charge: FC = # of valence e⁻ - # of lone e⁻ - # of bonds

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

Carbon (C)

  • 4 valence e⁻
  • 2 lone e⁻
  • 3 bonds

Oxygen (O)

  • 6 valence e⁻
  • 2 lone e⁻
  • 3 bonds

<u>Step 2: FC of C</u>

  1. Substitute:                    FC = 4e⁻ - 2e⁻ - 3
  2. Subtract:                       FC = -1

Calculate the volume of a 0.5M solution containing 20g of NaOH
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

1L

Explanation:

First, let us calculate the number of mole present in 20g of NaOH. This is illustrated below:

Mass = 20g

Molar Mass of NaOH = 23 + 16 + 1 = 40g/mol

Number of mole =?

Number of mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Number of mole of NaOH = 20/40 = 0.5mol

From the question given, we obtained the following data:

Molarity = 0.5M

Mole = 0.5mole

Volume =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

Volume = mole /Molarity

Volume = 0.5/0.5

Volume = 1L
