There are 2 lone pairs

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Given

a molecule of calcium sulfide

two valence electron of Calcium(Ca)

six valence electrons of Sulfur(S)

Required

number of lone pairs of electrons

Solution

Lewis structure shows the form of bonds that occur in the valence electrons of an element or compound

Valence electrons are electrons used in a chemical bond

To achieve stability, the element S needs 2 more electrons which are obtained from 2 electrons from the Ca element,

A lone pair electrons means refers to an unshared pair of electrons(not bonding to the other atoms)

What is true about two neutral atoms of the element gold
choli [55]
I'm pretty sure it's they have the same properties, because they don't have different masses, they don't both have missing nuclei, and they don't hav a different # of protons. Can't recall much else about the two, but I distinctly remember that

Suppose Earth was tilted much less on its axis. What effect would this have on the planet? Please help me !
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

If Earth was tilted much less on its axis, it would lead to minor changes in precipitation and temperatures as Earth moves slightly towards and away from the sun.

Explanation:

If a planet tilts more, it leads to colder winters and warmer summers. However, if a planet tilts less, it leads to less severe seasons that is and milder winters and cooler summers.

If Earth was tilted much less on its axis, it would lead to minor changes in precipitation and temperatures as Earth moves slightly towards and away from the sun.

A sample of neon occupies a volume of 461 mL at 1 atm and 273 K. What will be the volume of the neon when the pressure is reduce
Softa [21]

Answer:

0.501 L

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will use Boyle,s Law. According to this law "The volume of given amount of gas is inversely proportional to applied pressure at constant temperature".

                           V∝ 1/P

                           V= K/P

                            VP=K

Here the K is proportionality constant.

so,

             P1V1 = P2V2

P= pressure

V= volume

Given data:

P1= 1 atm

V1= 461 mL

P2= 0.92 atm

V2= ? (L)

To solve this problem we have to convert the mL into L first.

1 L = 1000 mL

461/1000= 0.461 L

Now we will put the values in the equation,

P1V1 = P2V2

V2= P1V1/ P2

V2= 1 atm × 0.461 L / 0.92 atm

V2= 0.501 L
