What causes ionic bonding between two atoms?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Marrrta [24]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Ionic bonding happens when an atom of an element gives one or more of its electrons to the other element's atom..it usually takes place between metal and non metal atoms...like in NaCl, Na gives its valence electron to chlorine and completes its own octet. Chlorine accepts the electron and completes its own octet too...but now both the atoms have an opposing charge and hence they attract each other to form an IONIC bond.

Ionic bonds are the strongest of the bonds...here complete transfer of electrons takes place unlike covalent bonds.

HOPE IT HELPED..

A chemical reaction that is expected to form 325.0 gof product only forms 123.8 g of product. What is the percent yield of this
Tasya [4]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf A. \ 38.1 \%}}

Explanation:

Percent yield is the ratio of the amount actually produced to how much could theoretically be produced. It is found using this formula:

\% \ yield = \frac{actual \ yield}{theoretical \ yield} *100

For this reaction, the theoretical or expected yield is 325.0 grams. The actual yield is 123.8 grams.

\% \ yield = \frac{ 123.8 \ g }{325.0 \ g }*100

Divide.

\% \ yield = 0.380923077 *100

\% \ yield = 38.0923077

Round to the nearest hundredth. The 9 in the hundredth place tells us to round the 0 to a 1 .

\% \ yield \approx 38.1

The percent yield is about <u>38.1%</u>

Identify each of the highlighted materials as an element, a compound, or a mixture, and explain your reasoning.
gulaghasi [49]

Answer 1) Butane : It is a compound which is made up by combination of elements of carbon and hydrogen together. It contains four carbon atoms which has ten atoms of hydrogen. The bonds between carbon and hydrogen are formed by covalently sharing of electrons. Therefore, butane is a compound.

Answer 2) Benzene : It is also a compound. Benzene contains six molecules of carbon and six molecules of hydrogen. They are covalently bonded with hydrogen atoms around the carbon atoms. It is termed as compound because it cannot be separated chemically.

Answer 3) Gasoline : This is an example of mixture. Gasoline usually contains mixture of many hydrocarbons in the compound state. It consists of mainly hydrocarbons which are between 4 to 12 carbon atoms per molecule (C4 - C12). It is majorly has the mixture of paraffins (which are alkanes), cycloalkanes (which are naphthenes), and olefins (which are alkenes). So, it will be correct to assign the term mixture to gasoline.

Answer 4) Kerosene - It is a mixture. Kerosene is made up of mixture of hydrocarbons. The chemical composition mainly depends on its source, but it usually consists of about ten different hydrocarbons, where each contains ten to sixteen carbon atoms per molecule. Therefore, assigning kerosene as a mixture is correct.

Answer 5) O_{2} - It is an element. The molecular formula of oxygen is O_{2}. Which states that when found in diatomic state the oxygen is stable and can exist freely in nature. The elemental form of oxygen is in the diatomic form. Therefore, oxygen ( O_{2}) is an element.
