Diazomethane has the molecular formula CH2N2. Draw the preferred Lewis structure for diazomethane and assign formal charges to a
1 answer:
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
We define the formal charge on an atom in a molecule as the charge it carries assuming that electrons in all chemical bonds of the molecule were shared equally between atoms irrespective of the electronegativity of each atom.
The formula for calculating the formal charge on an atom in a molecule is;
Formal Charge = [number of valence electrons on neutral atom] – [(number of lone electron pairs) + (½ number of bonding electrons)] ·
The formal charge on the two nitrogen atoms in diazomethane is obtained as follows;
Middle nitrogen atom = 5 – 8/2 – 0 = +1
Last nitrogen atom = 5 – 4/2 – 4 = –1
The Lewis structure of the molecule is shown in the image attached.

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of solid NaOH required is 80 g
<u>Explanation:</u>
Equivalent weight is calculated by dividing the molecular weight by n factor. The equation used is:
where,
n = acidity for bases = 1 (For NaOH)
Molar mass of NaOH = 40 g/mol
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Normality is defined as the umber of gram equivalents dissolved per liter of the solution.
Mathematically,
Or,
......(1)
We are given:
Given mass of NaOH = ?
Equivalent mass of NaOH = 40 g/eq
Volume of solution = 400 mL
Normality of solution = 5 eq/L
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
Hence, the mass of solid NaOH required is 80 g
