°°The next Lunar Eclipse is on March 23, a Wednesday THIS YEAR - 65 days left!

°° A Lunar Eclipse happens when the moon passes directly behind the earth into its umbra, or, shadow. This can occur only when the sun, Earth and moon are aligned exactly, or very closely so, with the Earth in the middle. Hence, a Lunar Eclipse can occur only the night of a full moon. The type and length of an eclipse depends upon the Moon's location relative to its orbital nodes. Isn't that cool?

Consider the following intermediate chemical equations. When you form the final chemical equation, what should you do with CO? C

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Cancel out CO because it appears as a reactant in one intermediate reaction and a product in the other intermediate reaction.

Explanation:

The CO appears twice hence in he intermediate reaction it only forms path of the enabling reagents and it further reacts to form the final product. Accounting for the CO in the intermediate reaction that undergoes further reaction will impact on the stoichiometry of the reaction.

Which substance cannot be decomposed by a chemical change?

coldgirl [10]

Copper substance cannot be decomposed by a chemical change.

<h3 />

When heated, the copper to carbonate breaks down into copper to oxide. The copper carbonate, which is dark in colour, releases carbon dioxide as well.Because they are the simplest chemically, elements cannot be broken down by chemical processes.

Elements are those pure compounds that cannot be broken down by reactions, heating, electrolysis, or other common chemical processes. Examples of elements are oxygen, gold, and silver. Its makeup stays the same, though. One instance of a physical change is melting. A physical change is when a sample of matter experiences a change in some of its qualities but not in its identity. Water turns into water vapour when it is heated.

In which of these diatomic molecules would you NOT find an octet of electrons

Semmy [17]

Answer:

The hydrogen molecule is the only one in which can not find an octet of electrons around each atom.

Explanation:

Let's evaluate each case.

1. Nitrogen (N₂):

With Z = 7, nitrogen has the following electronic configuration

1s²

2s² 2p³ → valence electrons

Since its valence electrons are 5, in the molecule one nitrogen atom shares 3 electrons with the other one, and each remains with an electron pair, so each atom has an octet of electrons.

2. Hydrogen (H₂):

With Z = 1, its electronic configuration is:

1s¹ → valence electron

In the molecule, the hydrogen atoms share the only electron they have, so they will have only 2 electrons around. In this diatomic molecule, we can not find an octet.

3. Oxygen (O₂):

Z = 8. Electronic configuration:

1s²

2s² 2p⁴ → valence electrons

In the diatomic molecule, each oxygen atom shares 2 electrons with the other one and remains with 2 pairs of electrons, therefore, each oxygen atom has an octet.

4. Fluorine (F₂)

Z = 9. Electronic configuration:

1s²

2s² 2p⁵ → valence electrons

In this molecule, each fluorine atom shares 1 electron with the other and remains with 3 pairs of electrons, hence, each fluorine atom has an octet of electrons around.

Finally, we can say that the hydrogen molecule is the only one in which can not find an octet of electrons around each atom.

I hope it helps you!
