The Lewis structure of P₄ is shown in 3-D form. The two bottom corner P atoms are facing right in front of us, one P atom behind the two, and one P above it. Each line represents 2 electrons. When you add the lone electrons, you get a total of 20 valence electrons.

Formal charge of each P:  5 - (2 +1/2*6) = 0

A steel container filled with H₂ gas is at a pressure of 6.5 atm and a temperature of 22°C. If the container is placed near a fu
Yuki888 [10]

Answer: The new pressure is 7.1 atm

Explanation:

To calculate the final pressure of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.

P_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

P_1=6.5atm\\T_1=22^0C=(22+273)K=295K\\P_2=?\\T_2=50^0C=(50+273)K=323K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{6.5}{295}=\frac{P_2}{323}\\\\P_2=7.1

Hence, the new pressure is 7.1 atm

A mixture of oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen exerts a total pressure of 378 kPa. If the partial pressures of oxygen and hydrogen
sertanlavr [38]
What's the relationship between total and partial pressure? The total pressure is the sum of the parcial pressures!


So for us, it would be:

378= 212+101+x

where x is the parcial pressure of nitrogen.

Now we count:
378= 212+101+x
378=313+x
378-313=x
65=x

So the parcial pressure exerted by nitrogen is 65!

A student carried out a titration using HC2H3O2(aq)HC2H3O2(aq) and NaOH(aq)NaOH(aq). The net ionic equation for the neutralizati
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The amount of HC₂H3₃2(aq) in the flask after the addition of 5.0mL of NaOH(aq) compared to the amount of HC₂H₃O₂(aq) in the flask after the addition of 1.0mL is much smaller because more HC₂H₃O₂(aq) is required to react with 5.0 mL NaOH than with 1.0 mL NaOH.

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction between acetic acid, HC₂H₃O₂(aq) and sodium hydroxide, NaOH(aq) is given below:

CH₃COOH (aq) + NaOH (aq) ----> CH₃COONa (aq) + H₂O

The equation of the reaction shows that acetic acid andsodium hydroxide will react in a 1:1 ratio

Since the concentration of NaOH was not given, we can assume that the concentration is 0.01 M

Moles of NaOH in 5.0 mL of 0.01 M NaOH = 0.01 × 5/1000 = 0.00005 moles

Moles of NaOH in 1.0 mL of 0.01 M NaOH = 0.01 ×1/1000 = 0.0001 moles

Ratio of moles of NaOH in 5.0 mL to 1.0 mL = 0.00005/0.00001 = 5

There are five times more moles of NaOH in 5.0 mL than in 1.0 mL and this means that 5 times more the quantity of HC₂H₃O2(aq) required to react with 1.0 mL NaoH is needed to react with 5.0 mL NaOH.

Therefore, the amount of HC₂H₃O2(aq) in the flask after the addition of 5.0mL of NaOH(aq) compared to the amount of HC₂H₃O₂(aq) in the flask after the addition of 1.0mL is much smaller because more HC₂H₃O₂(aq) is required to react with 5.0 mL NaOH than with 1.0 mL NaOH.
