Answer:

d. One single bond and two double bonds.

Explanation:

The octate rule is a chemical rule in which the atoms prefer to have eight electrons in the valence shell. Where a single bond provide two electrons and a double bond provide 4 electrons. Thus:

a. Two double bonds . Two double bonds provide 8 electrons. Octate rule is not violated

b. Three single bonds and one pair of electrons . Three single bonds provide 6 electrons and one pair of electrons provide two electrons. Thus, you have eight electrons and octate rule is not violated

c. Two single bonds and one double bond . Two single bonds provide four electrons and one double bond 4. Thus, you have eight electrons and octate rule is not violated.

d. One single bond and two double bonds. One single bond provides two electrons and two double bonds 8. Thus, you have 10 electrons and octate rule is violated.

e. Four single bonds. Four single bonds provide 8 electrons. Octate rule is not violated.

Many drugs decompose in blood by a first-order process. two tablets of aspirin supply 0.60 g of the active compound. after 30 mi

Firdavs [7]

The half-life of a first-order reaction is determined as follows:

t½=ln2/k

From the equation, we can calculate the first-order rate constant:

k = (ln(2)) / t½ = 0.693 / 90 = 7.7 × 10⁻³

When we know the value of k we can then calculate concentration with the equation:

A₀ = 2 g/100 mL

t = 2.5 h = 150min

A = A₀ × e^(-kt) =2 × e^(-7.7 × 10⁻³ × 150) = 0.63 g / 100ml

= 6.3 × 10⁻⁴ mg / 100ml

A gas occupies a volume of 72 ml at 400 k and 800 torr. if the temperature drops to 200 k and the pressure changes to 400 torr,

satela [25.4K]

We are tasked to solve for the volume of the gas that occupies when pressure and temperature changes to 400 Torr and 200 Kelvin from Torr and 400 Kelvin. We can use ideal gas law assuming constant gas composition and close system. The solution is shown below:
P1V1 / T1 = P2V2 / T2
V2 = P1V1T2 / T1P2
V2 = 800*72*200 / 400*400
V2 = 72 ml

The answer for the volume is 72 ml.

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

A chemist measures the amount of bromine liquid produced during an experiment. She finds that 766.g of bromine liquid is produced. Calculate the number of moles of bromine liquid produced. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.

Answer: The amount of liquid bromine produced is 4.79 moles.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$
