There are none

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

a molecule of calcium sulfide

two valence electron of Calcium(Ca)

six valence electrons of Sulfur(S)

Required

number of lone pairs of electrons

Solution

Lewis structure shows the form of bonds that occur in the valence electrons of an element or compound

Valence electrons are electrons used in a chemical bond

To achieve stability, the element S needs 2 more electrons which are obtained from 2 electrons from the Ca element,

A lone pair electron means refers to an unshared pair of electrons(not bonding to the other atoms)

This condition usually occurs in covalent bonds

As we know, the bond between Ca, which is a group 2 (metal) with Sulfur in group 16, is an ionic bond because it occurs between metal and non-metal ions, so there is no sharing of electrons, but there is a release of electrons from Ca ions to S ions to form an octet. , so all the valence electrons in S are paired

2) Find the volume that 2.0 moles of H2 will occupy at STP?
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

V = 44.85 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of H₂ = ?

Number of moles of H₂ = 2.0 mol

Given temperature = 273.15 K

Given pressure = 1 atm

Solution:

Formula:

PV = nRT

P = Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

By putting values,

1 atm × V = 2.0 mol × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  × 273.15 K

V = 44.85 atm.L / 1 atm

V = 44.85 L

¿Quién estableció el concepto moderno de elemento?
Zina [86]

Answer:

Robert Boyle

Explanation:

En muchos textos se suele considerar a Robert Boyle como el científico que introdujo en la Química un concepto de elemento diferente al empleado por los aristotélicos o por los alquimistas y que sirvió de antecedente al que formulara Lavoisier en 1789.
