Evgesh-ka [11]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

Since 300 ml of intravenous infusion contains 300 mg of drugs;

Then; 1 ml of intravenous infusion contains (x) amount of drugs

(x) amount of drugs = (300 mg × 1 ml)/ 300 ml

(x) amount of drugs = 1 mg.ml

To calculate the drip rate in drops/minutes by applying conversion factors.

rate (\dfrac{ in \ drops }{minute })= \dfrac{2 \ mg }{min } \times \dfrac{20 \ drops}{1 \ ml} \times \dfrac{1 \ ml }{1 \ mg }

rate (\dfrac{ in \ drops }{minute }) = 40 \  drops / min

Determine the number of bonding electrons and the number of nonbonding electrons in the structure of SI2. Enter the number of bo
mariarad [96]

Answer:

4, 16,

Explanation:

SI2 is sulphur diiodide. Sulphur is in group sixteen (six valence electrons) while iodine is in group 17(seven valence electrons).

Since there are two iodine atoms and one sulphur atom, the molecule has twenty valence electrons. Out of these twenty valence electrons, only four are bonding electrons. The other sixteen electrons include the four nonbonding electrons found on sulphur and the twelve non bonding electrons found on the two iodine atoms having six nonbonding electrons each.

A 0.652-g sample of a pure strontium halide reacts with excess sulfuric acid. the solid strontium sulfate formed is separated, d
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The formula of the original halide is SrCl₂.

Explanation:

  • The balanced equation of this reaction is:

SrX₂ + H₂SO₄ → SrSO₄ + 2 HX, where X is the halide.

  • From the equation stichiometry, 1.0 mole of strontium halide will result in 1.0 mole of SrSO₄.
  • The number of moles of SrSO₄ <em>(n = mass/molar mass) </em>= (0.755 g) / (183.68 g/mole) = 4.11 x 10⁻³ mole.
  • The number of moles of SrX are  4.11 x 10⁻³ moles from the stichiometry of the balanced equation.
  • n = mass / molar mass, n =  4.11 x 10⁻³ moles and mass = 0.652 g.
  • The molar mass of SrX₂ = mass / n = (0.652) / (4.11 x 10⁻³ moles) = 158.62 g/mole.
  • The molar mass of SrX₂ (158.62 g/mole) = Atomic mass of Sr (87.62 g/mole) + (2 x Atomic mass of halide X).
  • The atomic mass of halide X = (158.62 g/mole) - (87.62 g/mole) / 2 = 71 / 2  g/mole = 35.5 g/mole.
  • This is the atomic mass of Cl.
  • <em>So, the formula of the original halide is SrCl₂</em>.

"What makes a bond polar"?
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter A.

Explanation:

A Covalent bond polar is between 2 non metals where one atom is bigger than the other one so the distribution of charges creates this polarity.

A. One atom attracts shared electrons more strongly than the other atom  This is the correct definition of bond polar, one element is bigger and stronger than the other element.

B. One atom has transferred its electrons completely to another atom  This definition is incorrect, it is the definition of ionic bonding.

C. A sea of electrons has been created between the elements  This definition is incorrect for the polar bond, it describes a metallic bonding.

D. Two atoms are sharing electrons with equal attraction This definition is incorrect for a polar bond, but is the correct definition for nonpolar bonding.
