Part d based on your answer to part c, how many bonding electrons and lone pair electrons (nonbonding electrons) are there in the lewis structure of hcn?

The lewis structure of HCN has 8 bonding electrons and 2 non-bonding electrons.

The bonding electrons are one that are involved in the bond formation.

The nonbonding loan pair of electrons are one which are not involved in the bond formation.

In the structure of HCN,

H has 1 electron involved in bonding with C.

C has 4 electrons available, 1 electron is involved in the bond formation with H.

The N has 6 electrons. There is a triple bond formation between C and N, 3 electrons of N and 3 electrons of C are involved in the bond formation.

So total number of 8 electrons are bonding electrons.

2 electrons of N act as loan pair and are non-bonding electron.

Number of Bonding Electrons  =  8

Number of Non-Bonding Electrons  =  2

question: ray weighs 100 kilograms, his wrestling partner, bobby, weighs 50 kilograms. if ray moves at 4 m s , how fast will bobby have to run at him to apply an equal amount of kinetic energy?

answer: 8 m/s he needs to run twice as fast to keep up so he has some work to do

explanation:   if the mass has units of kilograms and the velocity of meters per second, the kinetic energy has units of kilograms-meters squared per second squared.
