Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

A. 2.89 x 1022

B. 8.66 x 1022

C. 3.66 x 1023

D. 1.10 x 1024

E. 3.29 x 1024

The answer is C. 3.66 × 10^23

Explanation:

In the chemical compound given as follows: Co2(HPO4)3, hydrogenphosphate ion is (HPO4)3.

Number of moles of hydrogenphosphate ion can be calculated using the formula

mole (n) = mass (m) /molar mass (MM)

Molar mass of (HPO4)3;

{1 + 31 + 16(4)}3

= {32 + 64)3

= (96)3

= 288g/mol

mole = 175/288

mole = 0.6076

mole = 0.607mol

The formula of units of hydrogenphosphate ion can be calculated by multiplying number of moles by Avogadro's number (6.022 × 10²³)

6.022 × 10²³ × 0.607

= 3.655 × 10²³

= 3.66 × 10²³

4. Can 200 ml of fluid be transferred to a 1-quart container? Explain the process that you used to arrive at your answer.

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

<u><em>Yes, 200 ml of fluid can be transferred to a 1-quart container.</em></u>

Explanation:

You must compare the two volumes, 200 ml and 1 quart. If 200 ml is less than or equal to 1 quart, then 200 ml of fluid can be transferred to a 1-quart container, else it is not possible.

To compare, the two volumes must be on the same system of units.

Quarts is a measure of volume equivalent to 1/4 of gallon.

One gallon is approximately 3.785 liters.

3.785 liter = 3.785 liter × 1,000 ml/liter

Then, to convert 1 quart to ml use the unit cancellation method:

(1/4)gallon × 3.785 liter/gallon × 1,000ml / liter = 946.25 ml

Thus, you get that a 1-quart container has volume of 946.25 ml, which allows that 200ml of fluid be transferred to it.

Draw the best Lewis structure for CH 3 -1. What is the formal charge on the C?

djyliett [7]

Answer : The formal charge on the C is, (-1) charge.

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, $CH_3^{-1}$

As we know that carbon has '4' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electron.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $CH_3^{-1}$ = 4 + 3(1) + 1 = 8

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 6 number of bonding electrons and 2 number of non-bonding electrons.

Now we have to determine the formal charge on carbon atom.

Formula for formal charge :

$\text{Formal charge}=\text{Valence electrons}-\text{Non-bonding electrons}-\frac{\text{Bonding electrons}}{2}$

$\text{Formal charge on C}=4-2-\frac{6}{2}=-1$

The formal charge on the C is, (-1) charge.
