5 0

Answer:

Phosphorus can have expanded octet, because it can shift it's lone pair electrons (3s orbital electrons) to empty 3d obital during excited state and thus can form 5 bonds.

Explanation:

hope it helps

Atomic mass of F: 19.0 g/mol

Atomic mass of S: 32.1 g/mol

1.18 g F = [1.18 g / 19.0 g / mol] = 0.062  mol F

1 g S =  1 g/ 32.1 g/mol = 0.031  mol S

Divide by 0.031

0.062 mol F / 0.031 = 2  mol F

0.031 mol S / 0.031 = 1 mol S

SF2 Then X = 2

Verification:
F2 = 2*19.0 g = 38 g F
S = 32.1 g

36 gF / 32.1 g S = 1.18 g F / g S

Assuming you have 6.24 x 1014 electrons and the surface area of the pail is 0.2 m2, what is the charge density (C/m2)?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

σ = 4.998 E-4 C/m²

Explanation:

  • 1 Coulomb (C) ≡ 6.241509 E18 electrons (e)

∴ # elect = 6.24 E14 elect

charge (Q):

⇒ Q = (6.24 E14 elect)/( 1 C /6.241509 E18 elect) = 9.998 E-5 C

charge density (σ):

  • σ = Q/S

∴ surface area (S) = 0.2 m²

⇒ σ = ( 9.998 E-5 C ) / ( 0.2 m²)

⇒ σ = 4.998 E-4 C/m²
