Thee question is incomplete; the complete question is;

Which elements do not strictly follow the octet rule when they appear in the Lewis structure of a molecule?

Select one or more:

A: Chlorine

B: Carbon

C: Hydrogen

D: Sulfur

E: Fluorine

F: Oxygen

Answer:

chlorine

sulphur

Explanation:

The octet rule states that, for atoms to be stable, they must have eight electrons on their outermost shells.

This rule is not strictly followed by some elements such as sulphur and chlorine. The atoms of these elements can sometimes expand their octet by utilizing the d-orbitals found in the third principal energy level and beyond.

These leads to formation of compounds in which the central atom has more than eight electrons in its outermost shell.

The dissociation of calcium carbonate has an equilibrium constant of Kp = 1.16 at 1073 K . CaCO3(s) ⇄ CaO(s) + CO2(g) If you pla

Answer:

<h3> $Pressure of CO_2 in the container=1.6 atm$ </h3>

Explanation:

First balance the chemical equation:

$CaCO_3(s)$ ⇄ $CaO(s) + CO_2(g)$

two components are solid so these two will not exert any kind of pressure in the container so at equilibrium only CO2 will apply pressure on the container

Therefore only partial pressure of CO2 will be taken for the calculation of equilibrium pressure constant i.e. Kp

$K_p=[CO_2]$

$[CO_2]=p$

$K_p=p$

$p=K_p = 1.16atm$

$Pressure of CO_2 in the container=1.6 atm$

You can purchase nitric acid in a concentrated form that is 70.3% HNO3 by mass and has a density of 1.41 g/mL. Describe exactly

Andrej [43]

The way to working out the numbers is to increase the measure of HNO3 required by the molarity to discover what number of moles you require: 0.115. You ought to have the capacity to make sense of the recipe weight H is 1, N is 14, O is 16. The result of the quantity of moles duplicated by the recipe weight ought to give an esteem in grams. You can utilize the thickness to change over to a volume of HNO3 to add to the right volume of water.

A bottle of concentrated aqueous sulfuric acid, labeled 98.0 wt% h2so4, has a concentration of 18.0 m. (a) how many milliliters

<span>n this order, Ď=1.8gmL, cm=0.5, and mole fraction = 0.9 First, let's start with wt%, which is the symbol for weight percent. 98wt% means that for every 100g of solution, 98g represent sulphuric acid, H2SO4. We know that 1dm3=1L, so H2SO4's molarity is C=nV=18.0moles1.0L=18M In order to determine sulphuric acid solution's density, we need to find its mass; H2SO4's molar mass is 98.0gmol, so 18.0moles1Lâ‹…98.0g1mole=1764g1L Since we've determined that we have 1764g of H2SO4 in 1L, we'll use the wt% to determine the mass of the solution 98.0wt%=98g.H2SO4100.0g.solution=1764gmasssolutionâ†’ masssolution=1764gâ‹…100.0g98g=1800g Therefore, 1L of 98wt% H2SO4 solution will have a density of Ď=mV=1800g1.0â‹…103mL=1.8gmL H2SO4's molality, which is defined as the number of moles of solute divided by the mass in kg of the solvent; assuming the solvent is water, this will turn out to be cm=nH2SO4masssolvent=18moles(1800â’1764)â‹…10â’3kg=0.5m Since mole fraction is defined as the number of moles of one substance divided by the total number of moles in the solution, and knowing the water's molar mass is 18gmol, we could determine that 100g.solutionâ‹…98g100gâ‹…1mole98g=1 mole H2SO4 100g.solutionâ‹…(100â’98)g100gâ‹…1mole18g=0.11 moles H2O So, H2SO4's mole fraction is molefractionH2SO4=11+0.11=0.9</span>
