Answer : The correct Lewis structure is shown below.

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 representation of valence electrons of an atom by dots around the symbol of an element is said to be the Lewis-dot symbol.

In the representation of Lewis-symbol, one electron dot must put on each side of the element symbol then paired the electrons.

(a) The given molecule is, NH_3

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

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.

(b) The given molecule is, OCl_2

As we know that oxygen has '6' valence electrons and chlorine has '7' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in OCl_2 = 6 + 2(7) = 20

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 8 number of bonding electrons and 12 number of non-bonding electrons.

As we know that carbon has '4' valence electrons, oxygen has '6' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in HCOOH = 4 + 2(1) + 2(6) = 18

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 10 number of bonding electrons and 8 number of non-bonding electrons.

(d) The given molecule is, HBr

As we know that bromine has '7' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in HBr = 1 + 7 = 8

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

Melting and boiling are endothermic processes. this means that these processes absorb energy from their surroundings in order to occur. use this information and the data you collected in the phase change gizmo to describe what happens to the temperature of water when you boil it, then explain why this result occurs.

Is a measure of the resistance to flow. a high liquid has a high resistance to flow and flows slowly. the ancients thought everything in the world was made of 4 we now know that there are 94 naturally occurring and scientists have created another 24 i am certain they will create even more. honey flows slowly because it has a high to flowing. a can be separated by physical means because it contains more than one pure substance and 2 pure substances are not chemically bonded to each other. a cannot be separated by physical means. all matter is made up of all elements are with the same number of protons. if it is just a single or many bonded together, if all of them have the same number of protons, it is an element. in a piece of pure iron metal, all the are joined together, that piece of iron metal is called elemental iron. a single of iron is called elemental iron. a mixture has differences from place to place. we might need a microscope to see them or they might be obvious to the unaided eye. there are surfaces separating it into different phases. a mixture is the same everywhere. it is uniform. there are no surfaces separating it into different phases. if different kinds of atoms (different elements) are bonded together by their electrons, it is called a there are physical means of to isolate the different pure substances in a mixture and there are chemical means of to isolate the different elements in a compound. 1. element 2. compound 3. mixture 4. heterogeneous 5. homogeneous 6. pure substance 7. atoms 8. separation 9. viscosity 10. resistance
