PLZ ANSWER IF U KNO THE ANSWER Given the reaction at equilibrium:
2SO2 (g) + O2 (g) <=> 2SO3 (g) + 44 Kcal
Which change will increase the concentration of SO3 (g)?
Select one:
a. increasing the temperature
b. increasing the concentration of O2 (g)
c. increasing the volume of the reaction vessel
d. decreasing the pressure
e. decreasing the concentration of SO2 (g)

answer: c.

explanation:

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!

if you need further assistance, let me know: )

hydrocarbons are organic compounds that contain only hydrogens and carbons. they can be saturated (those which contain only carbon-carbon single bonds) or unsaturated (those which contain carbon-carbon double or triple bonds) in nature. hydrocarbons can undergo several reactions like substitution, elimination etc.  

on substituting one or more hydrogen atoms in hydrocarbon it results in the formation of haloalkane. as the halogen atoms are large compared to the carbon and hydrogen atoms, due to which the molecular weight increases and the bond become polar because of presence electronegative halogen atom and results in the increase in boiling point of the haloalkane.

thus, the correct option is (b) that is the boiling point of the new compound increases on substituting a hydrogen atom with a halogen in a hydrocarbon.
