The answer is 163.333993748 grams
Answer:
Released
Explanation:
When particles that attract each other come together, energy is usually released. The combination of the two particles is expected to result in a lower energy system. This lower energy system will be more stable than the different individual particles.
Hence, as this lower energy system is formed, the excess energy originally possessed by the particles is evolved hence energy is released when particles that attract each other are allowed to come together.
First you have a knowledge of bond order which is
B.O=(no. of electrons in bonding orbital - no. of electrons in non-bonding orbital)÷2
Note:
bond strength is directly proportional to bond order.
For oxygen:
B.O=(6-2)/2= 2; after the removal of two electrons(removal occur from non-bonding orbital)
B.O=(6-0)/2= 3 (As B.O increased bond strength increased)
For Nitrogen:
B.O=(6-0)/2= 3; after the removal of two electrons(removal occur from bonding orbital)
B.O=(4-0)/2= 2 (As B.O decreased bond strength decreased)
Explanation:
I think
Bonding pairs = 4
Lone pairs around the left chlorine atom = 9
