Answer: formic acid
Explanation:
HCOOH is the structural formula for the compound commonly known as formic acid.
According to the international union of pure applied chemist (IUPAC), it is named methanoic acid, and represent the first member of the alkanoic acids.
Thus, examples of alkanoic acids are
- formic acid (HCOOH)
- Acetic acid (CH3COOH)
- Propanoic acid (CH3CH2COOH) etc
The oxygen atom has 4 valence electrons. Valence electrons are the electrons found in the outermost shell of an atom. These are the electrons that participate in chemical reactions during bonding. Since 4 electrons make up 2 pairs, an oxygen atom is capable of making <em>2 covalent bonds</em>.
Answer:
<h2><em><u>MASS</u></em></h2>
Explanation:
Inertia increases as an object's <u>Mass</u> increases.
Greater absolute charge
- This is because ionic bond results from stronger electrostatic forces of attraction.
- The higher the value of charges q₁ and q₂ the stronger will be the ionic bond.
