Draw the best Lewis structure for NH3 by filling in the bonds, lone pairs, and formal charges. (Assign bonds, lone pairs, radica

kiruha [24]

Answer : The Lewis-dot structure of $NH_3$ is shown below.

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, $NH_3$

As we know that hydrogen has '1' valence electron and nitrogen has '5' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $NH_3$ = 5 + 3(1) = 8

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 6 number of bonding electrons and 2 number of non-bonding electrons.

Now we have to determine the formal charge for each atom.

Formula for formal charge :

$\text{Formal charge}=\text{Valence electrons}-\text{Non-bonding electrons}-\frac{\text{Bonding electrons}}{2}$

$\text{Formal charge on N}=5-2-\frac{6}{2}=0$

$\text{Formal charge on }H_1=1-0-\frac{2}{2}=0$

$\text{Formal charge on }H_2=1-0-\frac{2}{2}=0$

$\text{Formal charge on }H_3=1-0-\frac{2}{2}=0$

Hence, the Lewis-dot structure of $NH_3$ is shown below.

PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THIIS QUESTION

sdas [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 5 carbon compounds due to low to high intermolecular forces between their molecules.

Explanation:

Bottle C has gas in it and we know that alkane has carbon and hydrogen only which means they have a single sigma bond between them and very low intermolecular forces in between molecules and are present mostly at gaseous state. Thus, bottle C has alkane.

Alcohols have -OH group that can form rarely two pi bonds which means they have intermediate intermolecular force whereas acids have -cooH group with a high molecular force so bottle B with liquid is alcohol and A has acid.
