Select the lewis structure for xeo2f2 which correctly minimizes formal charges.
1 answer:
Answer:
explanation and image attached
Explanation:
Our aim is to draw a structure of XeO2F2 whith the least formal charges. We must remember that the compound has 34 valence electrons.
To obtain the least formal charges then Xe must have a total of twelve electrons on its valence shell instead of eight.
The other atoms around the central Xe atom are arranged as shown in the image attached.

Answer:
T2 = 51.6°C
Explanation:
Given:
P1 = 1.01 atm
T1 = 25°C + 273 = 298K
P2 = 1.10 atm
T2 = ?
P1/T1 = P2/T2
Solving for T2,
T2 = (P2/P1)T1
= (1.10 atm/1.01 atm)(298K)
= 324.6 K
= 51.6°C
where Tc = Tk - 273
