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.
Lets find the electronegativity difference between the bonded atoms;
C-H = 2.6-2.2 = 0.4
C-F = 4.0-2.6 = 1.4
F-F = 4.0-4.0 = 0
H-O = 3.4-2.2 = 1.2
Here the electronegativity difference is highest for C-F bond hence C-F bond is most polar.
From the balanced equation:
<span>1mol C3H8 requires 5mol O2 for combustion </span>
<span>Molar mass C3H8 = 44g/mol </span>
<span>8.8g C3H8 = 8.8/44 = 0.2mol C3H8 </span>
<span>This will require 5*0.2 = 1.0mol O2 </span>
<span>Molar mass O2 = 32g/mol </span>
<span>Therefore 32g of O2 required.

Ans: The entropy change for the given reaction is 93.3 J/K
Given reaction:
Br2(l) → Br2(g)
ΔS = ∑n(products)S⁰(products) - ∑n(reactants)S⁰(reactants)
= 1 mole* S°(Br2(g)) - 1 mole*S°(Br2(l))
= 1 mole *245.5 J/mol-K - 1 mole*152.2 J/mol-K
= 93.3 J/K
It will change position.
For example, you are pushing a water bottle. The push is a force that is imbalance because there is no other force pushing the water back. So if you push the water bottle, it will move. When it moves, it is also call, "Changing position" because its location changed.
