Answer:
HOFO = (0, 0, +1, -1)
Explanation:
The formal charge (FC) can be calculated using the following equation:
<u>Where:</u>
V: are the valence electrons
N: are the nonbonding electrons
B: are the bonding electrons
The arrange of the atoms in the oxyacid is:
H - O₁ - F - O₂
Hence, the formal charge (FC) on each of the atoms is:
H: FC = 1 - 0 - 1/2*(2) = 0
O₁: FC = 6 - 4 - 1/2*(4) = 0
F: FC = 7 - 4 - 1/2*(4) = +1
O₂: FC = 6 - 6 - 1/2*(2) = -1
We can see that the negative charge is in the oxygen instead of the most electronegative element, which is the F. This oxyacid is atypical.
I hope it helps you!
Atoms are the building blocks of all matter
Mafic lava is low viscosity lava that creates quiet eruptions.
Diagram of the nuclear composition, electron configuration, chemical data, and valence orbitals of an atom of neodymium-144 (atomic number: 60), an isotope of this element. The nucleus consists of 60 protons (red) and 84 neutrons (orange). 60 electrons (white) successively occupy available electron shells (rings).
Answer: the reliability will be worse
Explanation:
Suppose we used 0.5 M NaOH to titrate our vinegar sample instead of 0.1 M.
Now by using 0.5M instead of 0.1M we are increasing the concentration of NaOH,
We know that the moles used = Volume x concnetration.
so for the same no of moles, if the concentration increases, the volume decreases.
Hence it will consume less NaOH.
now Since the volume decreases, the titration volume of less number will increase the % error.
Therefore the reliability will be worse.
