A valid Lewis structure of IF3 cannot be drawn without violating the octet rule.

Answer: IF3 (Iodine Trifluoride)

This is because, I (Iodine) and F (Fluorine) both have odd number of valence electrons (7) which also means that there are too many valence electrons in the valence shell.

Approximately how many particles are in 2 moles?

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

$1.2\times10^2^4$ particles in 2 moles.

Explanation:

The number of particles that are contained in one mole, the international unit of amount of substance: by definition, exactly 6.022×10²³, and it is dimensionless. It is named after the scientist Amedeo Avogadro.

It is also known as Avogadro's constant.

∴ Number of particles in one mole = $6.022\times10^2^3$

∴ Number of particles in 2 mole = 2 times Number of particles in one mole

∴ Number of particles in 2 mole= $2\times6.022\times10^2^3=12.044\times10^2^3\approx1.2\times10^2^4$

Hence there are $1.2\times10^2^4$ particles in 2 moles.
