Greetings,
The number of lone pairs of electrons in a C2O molecule is...
4
Each Oxygen atom forms two bonds with Carbon.
I hope this was useful!

An exponential decay law is generally expressed as: A = Ao * e ^ (-kt) => A/Ao = e^(-kt) Half-life time => A/Ao = 1/2, and t = 4.5 min => 1/2 = e^(-k*4.5) => ln(2) = 4.5k => k = ln(2) / 4.5 ≈ 0.154. Now substituting k, Ao = 28g, and t = 7 min to determine the remaining grams of Thallium-207 gives: A = Ao e ^ (-kt) = 28 g * e ^( -0.154 * 7) = 9.5 g. Final answer is 9.5 g.
The quantity of fluorine in moles is calculated as 71/19 = 3.74
We also know that at standard temperature and pressure (273 K and 101.3 kPa), one mole of gas occupies 22.4 liters
So, the volume for 3.74 moles at S.T.P is: 3.74 x 22.4
This results in a volume of 83.776 L, which is equivalent to 83,776 mL
Next, applying Boyle's law, which states that for a fixed amount of gas,
PV = constant
We set up the equation P x 6843 = 101.3 x 83776
Solving for P gives us 1,240 kPa
I believe the answer is D, though I'm not entirely certain unfortunately.
Clarification:
The Na2 molecules comprise atoms that are connected by a purely covalent bond since both atoms have the same electronegativity.
Metallic bonding only manifests when several atoms cluster together. Such aggregates may not tend to be stable, as larger masses of material typically exhibit greater stability thermodynamically. Therefore, they often merge until a significant metal chunk is formed.
In some ways, metallic bonding can be considered a variant of covalent bonding, but it is more communal—delocalized across numerous atoms—and electron deficient (there are more energy states than available electrons, which contributes to conductive traits). This implies that the term “metallic bond” might appear contradictory, akin to referring to a forest with a single tree.
