<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 volume od a CO2 cartridge that has a pressure of 850 PSI at a temperature of 21ºc the cartridge contains 0.273 mol

gladu [14]

Answer is: volume of CO₂ is 0,113 dm³.
Ideal gas law = pV = nRT.
p = 850 PSI = 5860543,6992 Pa.
Psi <span>is the abbreviation of pound per square inch.
T = 21</span>°C = 294,15 K.
n = 0,273 mol.
R = 8,314 J/K·mol.
V = nRT ÷ p
V = 0,273 mol · 8,314 J/K·mol · 294,15 K ÷ 5860543,6992 Pa.
V = 0,00011 m³ = 0,113 dm³.

25 g of ethyl alcohol is dissolved in 100 ml of water (density = 0.99993 at 20 oc). what is the % w/w for the ethyl alcohol in t

vitfil [10]

<span>Percentage by mass is the amount in mass of a component in a mixture per 100 unit of mass of the total mixture. Percentage by mass is the same as %w/w. We can determine this by dividing the mass of the solute with the total mass of the mixture. However, from the problem statement, we are given the volume of the water so there is a need to convert this value to mass by using the density of water. We calculate as follows:

Mass of solution = 100 mL (0.99993 g/mL) water + 25 g EtOH
Mass of solution = 124.993 g solution

%w/w = 25 g / 124.993 g x100
%w/w = 20% of EtOH</span>
