Explanation:

Sulfuric acid also known as H_{2}SO_{4} contains two hydrogen atoms, one sulfur atom and four oxygen atoms.

And it is given that the formal charge on a sulfuric acid molecule is zero. So, sulfur atom is bonded with two oxygen atoms through a double bond on each oxygen atom. The sulfur is also attached to another two oxygen atoms through a single bond for each oxygen atom.

Further, the each oxygen with single bond is attached to one hydrogen atom each.

If we are to draw the sulfuric acid structure based on Lewis it would look like:

                       O

                      ll

                O = S – O –H

                       l

                      O

                       l

                       H

 

So from this, we can see that there are 2 double bonds (O = S) and 4 single bonds (S – O and O – H).

 

Therefore the answer is:

4 single, 2 double

30g of naoh is dissolved in 1.5 liter solution the active mass of naoh is?
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

0.5mol/L

Explanation:

First, let us calculate the number of mole NaOH = 23 + 16 + 1 = 40g/mol

Mass of NaOH from the question = 30g

Number of mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Number of mole = 30/40 = 0.75mol

Volume = 1.5L

Active mass = mole/Volume

Active mass = 0.75mol/1.5L

Active mass = 0.5mol/L

A persistent or nonvolatile chemical agent can: Select one: a. explode without warning and releases gases. b. remain in the envi
avanturin [10]

Answer: A persistent or non-volatile chemical agent can remain on a surface for more than 24 hours.

Explanation:

Non-volatile substance is defined as the one which does not readily evaporate into its surrounding. Generally, a non-volatile substance has strong intermolecular forces between its molecules.

A non-volatile substance will take more than 24 hours to remain on the surface.

On the other hand, a substance with weak intermolecular forces present in its molecules will readily evaporate into the atmosphere.

For example, acetic acid is a volatile substance and quickly evaporates into the atmosphere.

Thus, we can conclude that a persistent or non-volatile chemical agent can remain on a surface for more than 24 hours.
