How many lone pairs of electrons are on the central carbon atom in a Lewis Structure of CHI3?

a) 2
b) 0
c) 1
d) 3

There are zero lone pairs of electrons on the central carbon atom in a Lewis Structure of CHI3. The correct option is b.

Explanation:

Lone pair electrons are those valence electrons of an atom which do not take part in bonding or left after the bonds are formed.

CH

carbon is the central atom in the compound having 4 valence electrons.

Each iodine molecule has 7 valence electrons.

H has 1 valence electron.

from the Lewis structure of CH, it is seen that all four valence electrons of the carbon is involved in bonding with 3 atoms of iodine and 1 atom of hydrogen.

Thus when all valence electrons are involved in bonding no lone pair of electron is found in CH that means zero lone pairs of electrons.

The octet of the iodine, carbon and hydrogen gets completed to form the compound.

58750.08068 is the answer i think

the dissociation of nickel hydroxide is follows:

the concentration of hydroxide ion is

the equilibrium constant value of nickel hydroxide is = 6.1 * 10^-^1^6 and thus equilibrium equation can be written as:

thus, concentration of ni is 0.23 * 10^-^4 mol /l
