Re: Polydentate

Polydentate ligands range in the number of atoms used to bond to a central metal atom or ion. EDTA, a hexadentate ligand, is an example of a polydentate ligand that has six donor atoms with electron pairs that can be used to bond to a central metal atom or ion.

Re: Resonance Hybrid

Re: Complete Lewis Structure [ENDORSED]

In my opinion, you don't have to find and write the formal charge. The reason is the formal charge is a tool to help you find which structure is more stable, you don't have to draw it on Lewis structure.

Re: how to draw lewis structure

You can draw it in several different ways. Just count the number of electrons, and try to make each atom form eight electrons out most shell.

Re: work function

If you have the frequency of the photon, you can get the energy of the photon by E=hv. Then if the kinetic energy of the electron is 0, you can get the work function=energy of the photon.

Re: Stoichiometric reactions

The key is the fraction. In a chemical reaction, the stoichiometric coefficient represents the fraction of each chemical substance. Because of the fraction of N2 H2 and NH3 is 1:3:2, the amount's fraction of them is also 1:3:2. Thus, when the N2 is 1mol, H2 is 3mol, NH3 is 2mol.
