of PF3. Please walk me through thesteps.
Do I start out like so?

since the P has 5 valence electrons.
And then I think I am supposed to promote.

I am lost however I know this is easy. Please help
The answer is sp3. Not sure how to get tothat

1)I have a chemistry test tomorrow and these questions are theones that I cannot figure out no matter what I do. I have beengiven so much information that I do not know where to start. Helpwill be greatly appreciated and I thank you so much in advance.

How much energy is required to heat 87.1 g acetone (molar mass =58.08 g/mol) from a solid at -154.0°C to a liquid at -42.0°C? Thefollowing physical data may be useful.

ΔHfus = 7.27 kJ/mol

Cliq = 2.16 J/g°C

Cgas = 1.29 J/g°C

Csol = 1.65 J/g°C

Tmelting = -95.0 °C

2)Given the following data, determine the heat of fusion ofwater at -20°C.

Heat capacity of liquid water = 75.2 J/mol•K Heatcapacity of solid water = 37.7 J/mol•K Heat of fusionof water at 0°C = 6.02 kJ/mol

I dont know where to start on either of these and whenever I seequesitons with many numbers I get lost. Please help me!

The activation energy for the decomposition of HI(g) toH2(g) and I2(g) is 186kJ/mol. The rateconstant at 555 Kelvin is 3.52 x 10-7M-1s-1. What is the rateconstant at 645 Kelvin?

I already know the answer: 9.5 x 10-5M-1s-1.

But when i try to work it out, i'm getting an answer of 9.8 x10-5 M-1s-1

So i'm thinking it has something to do with my significantfigures.. but im not sure.

Please show me how to get the correct answer so i know what i'mdoing wrong.

I'm working on a project I need some help with (BTW I asked my teacher and I am allowed to ask for help). If there was anything I wasn't clear on please tell me because I'm just hopelessly lost on this. Also just to note this actually has a fair bit of chemistry in it but because it's all related to electricity and there is no chemistal engineering subject Tab I put it here.

Okay so in this project we have a hypothetical scenario. In this scenario I'm on an abandoned island and I need to power a satellite for 97 minutes at 12 volts at 30 amps and 5 volts at 45 amps. But on this island are various supplies including a 1987 V8 engine which I think will provide 12 volts at 30 amps. Now what I need is fuel to get it going. I have 4 deep friers full of oil, 3 cases of magnum bottles of champagne, salt water from the ocean, 21 2 gallon jars of pickled eggs, and 33-5 gallon containers of italian salad dressing, and 23 #10 cans of tomato sauce. There is also an abandoned moonshine still. So using the oil from the friers, the champagne, and getting the oil out of the salad dressing I should be able to get a decent amount of biofuel correct? I also have 9 full 20# propane tanks and I read that propane can be used to make fuel burn more efficiently by taking the place of the air injection. If there anything else from this list that I could make into fuel of some kind? What about Moonshine everything I read mentions sugar and yeast which I don't think I have either of.

So assuming I have that all worked out okay that gets me my 12 volts at 30 amps. But I still need the 5 volts at 45 amps. And one solution I was thinking of was making voltic cells. Amoung the materials I have to work with that are of use here are some 1/2'' and 3/4'' copper pipes, 8 roles of aluminum foil, 23 20ft lengths of 6 in. sch. 40 PVC pipe, 17 20ft lengths of 4in. sch. 40 PVC pipe, and 9 20ft lengths of 2 in. Sch. 40 PVC pipe. I also have some cans of cold galvanizing spray paint ( meaning I have zinc), and various containers including a lot of PVC pipe, 55 gallon plastic drums, and a complete set of commercial pots and pans. I also have various wires but I'll put that asside for now. I also have access to some PH adjust (down)

Now what I want to do is make a battery set up that can deliver 5 volts at 45 amps for 97 minutes.

I know I can make several battery cells and connect them in series and parallel to get the desires voltage and current. But i'm having trouble figuring out what my voltage and amperage would be for each cell. Also how long would the charge last?

I read something called aluminum-air batteries but I'm not clear on how they are made or if they are ideal for what I need. Would using the pickling solution from the pickled eggs as my electrolyte be better than using the salt water? Or should I separate the vinegar out of the salad dressing and us that? Would using the PH adjust (down) help?

I tried looking up some reduction charts but those were all in aqueous. What I was able to get was that for copper and aluminum it was about 2 v potential and for copper Zinc it was about 1.01 v. Is this correct? For a base line lets say I just use the PVC pips, copper pipe, aluminum foil, Salt water, and for wiring I use copper wire. if I"m correct and I get about 2 V from each battery how do I find my amperage? What part of all this affects the current and how would I calculate it? Would using a different kind of wire be better? I have access to a couple different kinds.
