To illustrate the Lewis structure,
P has 5 valence electrons
O has 6 valence electrons (each for 4 oxygen)
And finally, for every negative charge, there is an additional valence electron
We should add these all up = 5 + 24 + 3 = 32 valence electrons
With this, we can be guided to illustrate the lewis structure as P as central atom and the 3 oxygen each with a single bond with P and 1 oxygen with a double bond with P. We place the valence electrons until octet rule is satisfied,
we will be left with 12 lone pairs for phosphate ion.
Answer : For the experiment to study the diffusion across the semi permeable membrane, following are the safety steps that will help to handle chemicals safety;
- Use droppers to transfer small amounts of chemicals into another glassware, it will prevent the unnecessary spillage of the chemical.
- Use tongs to move hot objects as they may cause severe burns.
- Check the test tubes for chips prior to using them otherwise it may leak the chemical inside it
- Washing your hands after you finishing the lab experiment, this will ensure that food is not contaminated while consuming, with the chemicals that were stuck on the hands.
Maybe Sugar I did that question before I think.
