Draw the Lewis structure for sulfur tetrafluoride, SF4

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vlad [161]2 years ago
6 0

Notes:-

  • S has Z=16

Electronic configuration

  • 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁴

So

  • Valency is 4 and 6

  • Three fluorine atoms take 3 electrons and one lone pair present over S
  • As one electron remains unshared so we use + sign .

When a compound such as X2Z4 is created, what would be the<br> correct simplified chemical formula?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

XZ2

Explanation:

There are different ways in which compounds can be represented. Broadly, we have three different types of formula;

- Structural formular: This shows how th atoms in te compound are connected to each other.

- Molecular formular: This shows the actual number of atoms of element present in the compound

- Empirical Formular: This is the simplest formular of a compound. It basically shows the number of atoms in simple ration to each other.

This question requires us to input the empirical formular;

X2Z4

The ratio of the elements is; 2 : 4 which can be simplified into 1 : 2

This means the empirical formular is XZ2

The following reaction is exothermic. C6H12O6(s)+6O2(g)⇌6CO2(g)+6H2O(g)C6H12O6(s)+6O2(g)⇌6CO2(g)+6H2O(g) Predict the effect (shi
elena55 [62]

Answer:

According to Le Chatelier's principle, increasing the reaction temperature of an exothermic reaction causes a shift to the left and decreasing the reaction temperature causes a shift to the right.

Explanation:

C6H12O6(s) + 6O2(g) ⇌6CO2(g) + 6H2O(g)

We are told that the forward reaction is exothermic, meaning heat is removed from the reacting substance to the surroundings.

According to Le Chatelier's principle,

1. for an exothermic reaction, on increasing the temperature, there is a shift in equilibrium to the left and formation of the product is favoured.

2. if the temperature of the system is decreased, the equilibrium shifts to right and the formation of the reactants is favoured.

3. if the reaction temperature is kept constant, the system is at equilibrium and there is no shift to the right nor to the left.

400. mg of an unknown protein are dissolved in enough solvent to make 5.00 mL of solution. The osmotic pressure of this solution
ch4aika [34]

<u>Answer:</u> The molecular weight of protein is 1.14\times 10^2g/mol

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the concentration of solute, we use the equation for osmotic pressure, which is:

\pi=iMRT

or,

\pi=i\times \frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times V_{solution}\text{ (in mL)}}}\times RT

where,

\pi = Osmotic pressure of the solution = 0.0861 atm

i = Van't hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolytes)

m_{solute} = mass of protein = 400 mg = 0.4 g   (Conversion factor:  1 g = 1000 mg)

M_{solute} = molar mass of protein = ?

V_{solution} = Volume of solution = 5.00 mL

R = Gas constant = 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = temperature of the solution = 25^oC=[25+273]K=298K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.0861atm=1\times \frac{0.4g\times 1000}{M\times 100}\times 0.0821\text{ L. atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 298K\\\\M=1136.62g/mol=1.14\times 10^2g/mol

Hence, the molecular weight of protein is 1.14\times 10^2g/mol

What is the oxidation number of each phosphorus atom in H4P2O7
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

+5

Explanation:

The oxidation number of phosphorus can be obtained as follows:

H4P2O7 = 0

4(+1) + 2P + 7(—2) = 0

4 + 2P —14 = 0

Collect like terms

2P = 14 — 4

2P = 10

Divide both side by 2

P = 10/2

P = +5

The oxidation number of phosphorus is +5
