Oxidation is when a substance gains oxygen molecules. For example when hydrogen reacts with oxygen it forms H₂O. The H₂ has been oxidised.
The Lewis Structure of HCN is shown below,
Number of Bonding Electrons: In HCN Hydrogen is bonded to Carbon through single bond and Nitrogen is bonded to Carbon through Triple Bond. Single bond is formed by two bonding electrons, while, triple bond is formed by six bonding electrons, Hence,
Number of Bonding Electrons = 8
Number of Non-Bonding Electrons:
In HCN there is only one lone pair of electron present on Nitrogen atom which is not taking part in bonding. Hence,
Number of Non-Bonding Electrons = 2
Result: Number of Bonding Electrons = 8 Number of Non-Bonding Electrons = 2
Answer:
Conservation of Energy and Mass
The law of conservation of mass states that in a chemical reaction mass is neither created nor destroyed. ... Similarly, the law of conservation of energy states that the amount of energy is neither created nor destroyed.
Answer:
Explanation:
You would have to add up the atomic masses of all the compounds in the compound, making sure you include how many molecules of each are in the compound
For example, in CuSOA we have 1 molecule of Cu and S, as 4 molecules of O
The atomic masses are as follows:
Cu = 63.55 u
S = 32.065 u
O = 15.99 units
This is how we would add it up:
(Atomic mass of Cu) + (Atomic mass of S) + 4(Atomic Mass of O)
(63.55) + (32.065) + 4(15.99)
(63.55) + (32.065) + 63.96
= 159.575 u
