Seems to be an ideal gas law question. The relevant equation is:

PV = nRT

where P is the pressure in atmospheres, V is the volume in liters, n is the number of moles of gas, R is the gas constant (0.082 atm-L/mole-deg K), and T is temperature in Kelvins. STP means standard temperature and pressure and this is taken as 1 atm and 0º C or 273 K.

To calculate the number of molecules we will use the constant 6.023 * 10^23 molecules/mole and, therefore, we will need to know the number of moles (n). So, first we’ll rearrange the gas law equation, isolating ’n’ and then put the numbers in.

n = PV/RT = 1 * 1 / (0.082)(273) = 0.0447 moles

So, to calculate the number of molecules, multiple this by the number of molecules in a mole and you get:

# molecules of nitrogen in 1 Liter at STP = 6.023 * 10^23 molecules/mole * 0.0447 moles = 2.6905 * 10^22 molecules

Note, it does not matter what the gas is.

Draw a lewis structure for ketene, c2h2o, which has a carbon–carbon double bond

MrMuchimi

Visual representation of covalent bonding indicating the valence shell electrons in the molecule, lines represents the shared pair of electron and pair of electrons that are not involved in bonding are represented as dots(lone pairs) are known as Lewis structures.

Compound formation takes place in order to complete the octet of each element that is according to octet rule, each atom forms bond with other atom in order to complete their octet that is to get eight electrons in its valence shell and attain stability.

An organic compound of the form $R^{'}R^{''}C=C=O$ is known as ketene.

The given ketene is $C_2H_2O$ .

The number of valence electron of:

$C = 4$

$H = 1$

$O = 6$

The number of valence electrons in $C_2H_2O$ = $2\times 4+2\times 1+1\times 6 =16$

2 electrons are involved in each single bond between carbon and hydrogen and 4 electrons are involved in each double bond formed between carbon-carbon and carbon-oxygen. Hence, the total number of electrons involved in bond formation are 12 and rest 2 pair of electrons are present on oxygen as lone pair of electrons.

Therefore, the attached image is the Lewis structure of $C_2H_2O$ .
