Answer :  The correct option is, Only Student B

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, NH_3

As we know that nitrogen has '5' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electron.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in NH_3 = 5 + 3(1) = 8

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 6 number of bonding electrons and 2 number of non-bonding electrons.

The Lewis dot structure of student A is wrong because there is a coordinate bond present between the nitrogen and hydrogen is not covalent.

Thus, the correct Lewis-dot structure of NH_3 is shown by the student B.

There can be three possible answers to this question: the amount of moles of SO₂ gas needed to react with 6.41 mol H₂S, and the amount of S and H₂O gas produced.

Amount of SO₂:
6.41 mol H₂S (1 mol SO₂/2 mol 2 mol H₂S) = <em>3.205 moles SO₂ gas</em>

Amount of S:
6.41 mol H₂S (3 mol S/2 mol 2 mol H₂S) =<em> 9.615 moles S solid</em>

Amount of H₂O:
6.41 mol H₂S (2 mol H₂O/2 mol 2 mol H₂S) = <em>6.41 moles H₂O gas</em>

The volume of a single strontium atom is 4.15×10-23 cm3. What is the volume of a strontium atom in microliters
Ivenika [448]

Answer:-  4.15*10^-^2^0\mu L

Solution:- It is a volume unit conversion problem where we are asked to convert the volume from cm^3 to microliters.

We know that:

1cm^3 = 1 mL

1mL=10^-^3L

and, 1L=10^6\mu L

Let's use these conversions factors for the desired conversion using dimensional as:

4.15*10^-^2^3cm^3(\frac{1mL}{1cm^3})(\frac{10^-^3L}{1mL})(\frac{10^6\mu L}{1L})

= 4.15*10^-^2^0\mu L

So, the answer is  4.15*10^-^2^0\mu L .

The chlorination of methane occurs in a number of steps that results in the formation of chloromethane and hydrogen chloride. Th
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Total pressure = 0,806 atm

Partial pressure of CH₄: 0,037 atm

Partial pressure of Cl₂: 0,396 atm

Partial pressure of CH₃Cl: 0,125 atm

Partial pressure of HCl: 0,125 atm

Partial pressure of Cl⁻: 0,125 atm

Explanation:

For the reaction:

2CH₄(g)+3Cl₂(g)⟶2CH₃Cl(g)+2HCl(g)+2Cl⁻(g)

295 mL≡ 0,295L of methane at STP are:

n = PV/RT

P = 1 atm; V = 0,295L; R = 0,082atmL/molK; T = 273K.

moles of methane: 0,0132 moles

For 725 mL of chlorine ≡ 0,725L

moles of chlorine at STP are: ≡ 0,0324 moles

For a complete reaction of 0,0132 moles of CH₄:

0,0132 mol CH₄× \frac{3molCl_{2}}{2 molCH_{4}} = <em>0,0198 moles</em>

The reaction reaches 77%, moles of Cl₂ that react are: 0,0198×77% = 0,0153 mol

As you have 0,0324 moles of Cl₂, moles that will not react are:

0,0324 - 0,0153 = <em>0,0171 mol Cl₂</em>

As the reaction reaches 77% completion, moles of CH₄ that react are:

0,0132×77% =<em> 0,0102 moles of CH₄ And the moles that don't react are </em><em>0,00300 mol</em>

Thus, moles of each compound are:

0,0102 moles of CH₄×\frac{3Cl_{2}}{2 molCH_{4}}= <em>0,0153 mol  + 0,0171 mol = 0,0324 mol Cl₂</em>

0,0102 moles of CH₄×\frac{2CH_{3}Cl}{2 molCH_{4}}= <em>0,0102 mol CH₄</em>

0,0102 moles of CH₄×\frac{2HCl}{2 molCH_{4}}= <em>0,0102 mol HCl</em>

0,0102 moles of CH₄×\frac{2Cl^{-}}{2 molCH_{4}}= <em>0,0102 mol Cl⁻</em>

Total pressure using:

P = nRT/V

Where: n = 0,0102mol×3+0,0324mol + 0,0030mol = 0,0660mol; R = 0,082 atmL/molK; T = 298K; V = 2L

Total pressure = 0,806 atm

Partial pressure of CH₄: 0,037 atm

Partial pressure of Cl₂: 0,396 atm

Partial pressure of CH₃Cl: 0,125 atm

Partial pressure of HCl: 0,125 atm

Partial pressure of Cl⁻: 0,125 atm

<em>-To obtain partial pressure you change the moles for each compound-</em>

A standard backpack is approximately 30cm x 30cm x 40cm. Suppose you find a hoard of pure gold while treasure hunting in the wil
Blizzard [7]

Explanation:

The dimensions of a standard backpack is 30cm x 30cm x 40cm

The mass of an average student is 70 kg

We know that, the density of gold is 19.3 g/cm³.

Let m be the mass of the backpack. So,

\text{density}=\dfrac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}\\\\m=d\times V\\\\m=19.3\ g/cm^3\times (30\times 30\times 40)\ cm^3\\\\m=694800\ g\\\\\text{or}\\\\m=694.8\ kg\approx 700\ kg

An average student has a mass of 70 kg. If we compare the mass of student and mass of backpack, we find that the backpack is 10 times of the mass of the student.

During photosynthesis, sunlight shining on a plant is absorbed. Through several chemical reactions, the plant produces sugar, a
weeeeeb [17]
The change is thermal energy to chemical energy.  Sugar contains a lot of chemical potential energy which is why living things use it as a source of energy.  The process of photo synthesis takes light from the sun to convert carbon dioxide and water into sugar and oxygen.  That process is basically turning the thermal energy from the light into chemical energy in the sugar.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.
