Chapter 9, Problem 13E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Using covalent Lewis structure, the reason as to why the given elements (or family of elements) occur as diatomic molecules is to be explained.

Concept introduction: Lewis structures, also known as Lewis dot structures, are the diagrams that show bonding between various atoms of a molecule. The valence electrons around an atom are shown by dots. Bonds between atoms are shown by lines and the lone pair of electrons is shown by a pair of dots.

To determine: Using covalent Lewis structure, the reason as to why the given element (or family of elements) occurs as diatomic molecules.

4) Which oxygen atom in the structure below is most basic / nucleophilic? Please explain by discussing the electron density around each oxygen atom. Show at least three resonance structures for the compound. оого
Can you show me this problem. Turn them into lewis dot structures for me please and then answer the question because I cant seem to comprehend it/ The diagrams on the picture look too small I guess.
The fire releases 2.80 x 107 Joules of heat energy for each liter of oil burned. The water starts out at 24.5 °C, raising the water's temperature up to 100 °C, and then raises the temperature of the resulting steam up to 325 °C. How many liters of water will be needed to absorb the heat from the fire in this way, for each 1.0 liter of crude oil burned? 4186 J/(kg°C) = heat of water 2020 J/(kg°C) = heat of steam 2,256,000 (i.e. 2.256 x 106) J/kg = latent heat of vaporization for water (at the boiling point of 100 °C).
