There are six (6) bonding electrons are in the lewis structure of carbon monoxide (CO).
In Lewis structure, there are ten (10) valence electrons of Carbon monoxide (CO). For lewis structure we need a triple bond between carbon and oxygen, so when electrons made a triple bond it means there is six bonding electrons in lewis structure of carbon monoxide.

Answer:

6

Explanation:

The Lewis structure represents the valence electrons at the atoms, which ones are shared and the lone pairs. Carbon is at group 4 at the periodic table, and so has 4 electrons in the valence shell; oxygen is at group 6, and so has 6 electrons at the valence shell.

That compound is an exception of the octet rule. A triple bond is done between the atoms, and so, 3 electrons of carbon are shared and 3 electrons of oxygen are shared. Thus, there are 6 bonding electrons, as shown below in red.

Bess [88]
Answer:
            Dispersion Forces are found between n-Pentane (CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₃) and n-Hexane (CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₃).

Explanation:
                   Dispersion Forces are present and developed by those compounds which are non-polar in nature. In given statement n-Pentane and n-Hexane both are non-polar in nature as the electronegativity difference between Hydrogen atoms and Carbon atoms is less than 0.4. 
                   When non-polar molecules approaches each other, a Dipole is induced in one of them, this step is known as Instantaneous Dipole, This generated Dipole on approaching another non-polar molecule induces dipole in it and the process propagates. Hence, creating intermolecular interactions.

Antoine Lavoisier burned metals in sealed jars. What is your prediction of his experimental results?
Aliun [14]

Answer:

The mass of the jar and contents remained the same after the metal was burned.

Explanation:

My prediction about the experimental results is that  the mass of the jar and contents remained the same after the metal was burned in the jar.

This is compliance with the law of conservation of mass which states that in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed by bonds are rearranged for new compounds to form.

  • In compliance with this law, it is expected that the mass of the jar and its content will remain the same before and after the reaction.
  • No new material was added and no material was removed from the jar.

The normal boiling point of iodomethane, CH3I, is 42.43 8C, and its vapor pressure at 0.00 8C is 140. Torr. Calculate (a) the st
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

a=28600J; b=90.6 J/K; c=402 torr

Explanation:

(a) considering the data given

 Vapour pressure P1 =0  at Temperature T1 = 42.43˚C,

Vapour pressure P2 = 273.15 at Temperature T2= 315.58 K)

Using the Clausius-Clapeyron Equation

ln (P2/P1) = (ΔH/R)(1/T2 - 1/T1)

In 760/140 = ΔH/8.314 J/mol/K  × (1/315.58K -- 1/273.15K)

ΔH vap= +28.6 kJ/mol or 28600J

(b) using the Equation ΔG°=ΔH° - TΔS to solve forΔS.

Since ΔG at boiling point is zero,

ΔS =(ΔH°vap/Τb)

 ΔS = 28600 J/315.58 K

= 90.6 J/K

(c) using ln (P2/P1) = (ΔH/R)(1/T2 - 1/T1)

ln P298 K/1 atm =  28600 J/8.314 J/mol/K × (1/298.15K - 1/315.58K)

P298 K = 0.529 atm

                = 402 torr

Please help with 14-16 <br> Thank you!
Natalka [10]
I don't know about 14, but 15 is (4), because a liquid draws in heat to turn into a gas. 16 is (2), because to turn into a cold solid, something has to release heat.
