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

Chemistry
1 answer:
givi [52]2 years ago
7 0

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.

If irons temperature goes from 50c to 75c in a 20g sample, how many joules of heat were used?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Option D. 230 J

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the temperature change of the iron. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial temperature (T₁) = 50 °C

Final temperature (T₂) = 75 °C

Change in temperature (ΔT) =?

ΔT = T₂ – T₁

ΔT = 75 – 50

ΔT = 25 °C

Thus, the temperature change of the iron is 25 °C.

Finally, we shall determine the amount of heat energy used. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (M) = 20 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 25 °C

Specific heat capacity (C) = 0.46 J/gºC

Heat (Q) =?

Q = MCΔT

Q = 20 × 0.46 × 25

Q = 230 J

Thus, the amount of heat used was 230 J

Find the ph of a buffer that consists of 0.18 m ch3nh2 and 0.73 m ch3nh3cl (pkb of ch3nh2 = 3.35)?
ozzi
Hello!

First, we need to determine the pKa of the base. It can be found applying the following equation:

pKa=14-pKb=14-3,35=10,65

Now, we can apply the Henderson-Hasselbach's equation in the following way:

pH=pKa+log( \frac{[CH_3NH_2]}{[CH_3NH_3Cl]} )=10,65+log( \frac{0,18M}{0,73M} )=10,04

So, the pH of this buffer solution is 10,04

Have a nice day!

Select the single best answer. Which mechanism properly shows the movement of electrons in the reaction? 2xsafari
sweet [91]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

We must study the reaction pictured in the question closely before we begin to attempt to answer the question.

Now, the reaction is a free radical reaction. This implies that only one electron is transferred. The transfer of one electron is shown using a half arrow rather than a full arrow. The both species are radicals (odd electron species) and contribute one electron each.

Hence we must show electron movements in both species using a half arrow.
