If an ionic compound has a 2- charge how does that affect the total number of electrons in a Lewis structure

Chemistry

givi [52]2 years ago

In the situation where an ion has a charge of -2, the Lewis structure is affected because it must add two additional electrons.

The Lewis structure is a term to refer to the graphical representation that shows the pairs of electrons in dashes or points of bonds between:

  • The atoms of a molecule
  • The lone electron pairs that may exist

Additionally, the charge of an ionic compound is calculated using the difference in electrical charge between the electrons. On the other hand, an ion is formed by adding or removing electrons, so the magnitude of the resulting charge depends on the number of electrons added or removed.

According to the above, if an ionic compound has a -2 charge, the Lewis structure must add two electrons.

Explain why the catalyst is used as a very fine powder and larger pieces of iron are not used.
Allushta [10]

Answer:

<h2><u>Reason:</u></h2>

Catalyst is used as a very fine powder and larger pieces of iron are not used. This is because the surface area of catalyst needs to be large so that more of the surface is exposed to the substrate and more of the substrate is catalyzed.

<h2><u>Important Info:</u></h2>

=> Larger Pieces of Iron has a smaller surface area than the fine particles.

=> Larger the surface area of catalysts/enzymes , more will be the reaction rate and vice versa.

Hope this helped!

If 45.0 mL of ethanol (density =0.789g/mol) initially at 6.0°C mix with 45.0 mL of water (density =1.0 g/mol) initially at 28.0°
Likurg_2 [28]

The final temperature of the mixture : 21.1° C  

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

The law of conservation of energy can be applied to heat changes, i.e. the heat received / absorbed is the same as the heat released  

Q in(gained) = Q out(lost)  

Heat can be calculated using the formula:  

Q = mc∆T  

Q = heat, J  

m = mass, g  

c = specific heat, joules / g ° C  

∆T = temperature difference, ° C / K  

Q ethanol=Q water

mass ethanol=

\tt mass=\rho\times V\\\\mass=0.789\times 45=35.505~g

mass water =

\tt mass=1~g/ml\times 45~ml=45~g

then the heat transfer :

\tt 35.505\times 2.42~J/g^oC\times (t-6)=45\times 4.18~J/g^oC\times (28-t)\\\\85.922t-515.533=5266.8-188.1t\\\\274.022t=5782.33\rightarrow t=21.1^oC

poizon [28]
1. Take 100ml of water as solvent and boil it few minutes.
2. Now add one tea spoon sugar, one tea spoon tea leaves and 50ml of milk. Here sugar, tea leaves and milk are solute.
3. Now boil it again for few minutes so that sugar will dissolves in solution as sugar is soluble in water
4. Now filter the solution. Collect the filtrate in cup. The insoluble tea leaves will be left behind as residue.
