Answer from: jaimes04

There are none

Further explanation

Given

a molecule of calcium sulfide

two valence electron of Calcium(Ca)

six valence electrons of Sulfur(S)

Required

number of lone pairs of electrons

Solution

Lewis structure shows the form of bonds that occur in the valence electrons of an element or compound

Valence electrons are electrons used in a chemical bond

To achieve stability, the element S needs 2 more electrons which are obtained from 2 electrons from the Ca element,

A lone pair electron means refers to an unshared pair of electrons(not bonding to the other atoms)

This condition usually occurs in covalent bonds

As we know, the bond between Ca, which is a group 2 (metal) with Sulfur in group 16, is an ionic bond because it occurs between metal and non-metal ions, so there is no sharing of electrons, but there is a release of electrons from Ca ions to S ions to form an octet. , so all the valence electrons in S are paired

For cyclohexane compounds drawn in a chair conformation: -axial bonds are vertical -equatorial bonds are parallel to two bonds within the ring. thus, as i assume the chair conformation is drawn: -the x group is in an axial position, as are the five other vertical bonds. -three axial bonds are on the top face of the ring -the other three axial bonds are on the bottom face the position of the second substituent on each ring carbon is equatorial. gauche groups must be on an adjacent carbon such as carbon 6 and carbon 2, and also gauche groups are rotated by 60 degrees relative to each other. drawing the newman projections for c1–c2 and c1–c6 aids in visualizing the groups that are gauche to the y group on c1. click this link and watch some academic videos that may you more understand the topic

Read these sentences from the text. near the equator, the tropics receive the most rain on a consistent basis. as a result, the fresh water falling into the ocean decrease the salinity of the surface water in that region. [. .] . . as the salt content of sea water increases, so does its density. what can you infer about how rain affects the density of surface water near the equator?
