Answer:
removing a top predator may cause its prey to become more abundant, as fewer individuals are eaten. But with more prey around, the organisms that it eats may become scarcer. Seemingly simple changes can have complex effects, with direct and indirect interactions rippling throughout entire ecosystems.
Explanation:
Answer: C9H11O3N
Explanation:
The percentage by mass of each element is divided by its relative atomic mass. The lowest ratio is now observed. Each ratio is now divided by this lowest ratio and approximated to whole numbers. All these are shown in detail in the image attached.
We are told we have an oxyacid of the formula HOFO. We will assume the atoms are in this order and will draw a proper lewis structure for this compound by first drawing bonds between each of the 4 atoms and then place the remaining electron pairs on each atom:
.. .. ..
H - O - F - O:
·· ·· ··
We can calculate the formal charge of an atom using the following formula:
Formal charge = [# of valence electrons] - [# of non-bonded electrons + # of bonds]
H: Formal charge = [1]-[0+1] = 0
O: Formal charge = [6]-[4+2] = 0
F: Formal charge = [7]-[4+2] = +1
O: Formal charge = [6]-[6+1] = -1
As we can see the overall charge of the molecule is neutral since the fluorine as a +1 charge and the oxygen a -1 charge.
