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)

iris [78.8K]

Answer: P= 1.64 atm

Explanation: solution attached.

Use Ideal gas law

PV= nRT

Derive for P

P= nRT/V R= 0.08205 L.atm/mol.K

Substitute the values.

(a) what is the approximate ductility (%el) of a brass that has a yield strength of 230 mpa (33360 psi)?
ss7ja [257]

Based on the calculations, the approximate ductility (%el) of this brass is equal to 2.3%.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Yield strength = 230 mpa (33360 psi).

<h3>What is ductility?</h3>

Ductility can be defined as an important property of a material which determines its ability to become elongated due to the application of stress.

Mathematically, the ductility of a material can be expressed as percentage elongation in length:

\% el = \frac{\Delta L}{L_i} =\frac{L_f - L_i}{L_i}

<u>Where:</u>

  • L_i is the original length.
  • L_f is the final length.
  • \Delta L is the yield strength.

For this exercise, let us assume the original length of this brass is equal to 100 meters.

Substituting the parameters into the formula, we have;

\% el = \frac{230}{100}

Ductility = 2.3%.

Why is the use of inquiry process a practical way to approach science?
just olya [345]

Answer:

Explanation:

Inquiry making is one of the methodical approaches to scientific investigation. Inquiry basically deals with asking question and querying a certain procedure or observation. In almost all the phases of a scientific investigation, the scientist will not cease to keep on asking questions that are connected to the observations and how this can help to further broaden the scope of the experiment. In fact, every investigation in science is an inquiry into a phenomenon and this generates series of questions that need to be satisfied.
