<h3>Answer:</h3>

             Formal Charge on Nitrogen is "Zero".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Formal Charge on an atom in molecules is calculated using following formula;

Formal Charge  =  [# of Valence e⁻s] - [e⁻s in lone pairs + 1/2 # of Bonding e⁻s]

As shown in attached picture of Hydroxylamine, Nitrogen atom is containing two electrons in one lone pair of electrons and six electrons in three single bonds with two hydrogen and one oxygen atom respectively.

Hence,

                                  Formal Charge  =  [5] - [2 + 6/2]

                                  Formal Charge  =  [5] - [2 + 3]

                                  Formal Charge  =  5 - 5

                                  Formal Charge  =  0    (zero)

Hence, the formal charge on nitrogen atom in hydroxylamine is zero.

Calculate the heat of reaction, ΔH°rxn, for overall reaction for the production of methane, CH4.
Lesechka [4]

<u>Answer:</u> The enthalpy of the reaction for the production of CH_4 is coming out to be -74.9 kJ

<u>Explanation:</u>

Enthalpy change is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles. It is represented as \Delta H^o

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:  

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f_{(product)}]-\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f_{(reactant)}]

For the given chemical reaction:

C(s)+2H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(CH_4(g))})]-[(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(C(s))})+(2\times \Delta H^o_f_{(H_2(g))})]

We are given:

\Delta H^o_f_{(C(s))}=0kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(H_2)}=0kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{CH_4}=-74.9kJ/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(1\times (-74.9))]-[1\times 0)+(2\times 0)]\\\\\Delta H^o_{rxn}=-74.9kJ

Hence, the enthalpy of the reaction for the production of CH_4 is coming out to be -74.9 kJ

Convert 26.02 x 1023 molecules of C2H8 to grams. Round your answer to the hundredths place.
aliina [53]

Answer:

x= 138.24 g

Explanation:

We use the avogradro's number

6.023 x 10^23 molecules -> 1 mol C2H8

26.02 x 10^23 molecules -> x

x= (26.02 x 10^23 molecules  * 1 mol C2H8 )/6.023 x 10^23 molecules

x= 4.32 mol C2H8

1 mol C2H8     -> 32 g

4.32 mol C2H8 -> x

x= (4.32 mol C2H8 * 32 g)/ 1 mol C2H8

x= 138.24 g

Write the formulas for the following ionic compounds: (a) copper bromide (containing the Cu+ ion), (b) manganese oxide (containi
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:The formulas of ionic compounds are:

a)CuBr

b)Mn_2O_3

c)Hg_2I_2

d)Mg_3(PO_4)_2

Explanation:

Formulas for the an ionic compounds is determine by:

Criss-cross method, the oxidation state of the ions gets exchanged and they form the subscripts of the other ions. This results in the formation of a neutral compound.

(a) Copper bromide :Given that it contains Cu^+ ion.

Cu^++Br^-\rightarrow CuBr

(b) Manganese oxide : Given that it contains Mn^{3+} ion.

Mn^{3+}+O^{2-}\rightarrow Mn_2O_3

(c)Mercury iodide :Given that it contains Hg_2^{2+}

Hg_2^{2+}+I^-\rightarrow Hg_2I_2

(d) Magnesium phosphate :Given that it contains PO_4^{3-}

Mg^{2+}+PO_4^{3-}\rightarrow Mg_3(PO_4)_2
