Why are eight electrons (four pairs) surrounding each non-hydrogen atom the optimal electronic arrangement for covalent molecule

s?
Physics

rodikova [14]2 years ago
3 0

Eight electrons surrounding each non-hydrogen atom is the optimal electronic arrangement for covalent molecules because it is needed to achieve an octet structure and is necessary to fill both the s and p subshells of electrons.

<h3>What is Covalent bonding?</h3>

This is the type of bonding which involves the sharing of electrons between atoms of an element.

This is done to achieve an octet configuration thereby making them stable and less reactive thereby making it the most appropriate choice.

What is know as law of inertia? ​
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

<em><u>mark</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>me</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>brianliest</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>plz</u></em>

Explanation:

  • Law of inertia, also called Newton's first law, postulate in physics that, if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force.
  • Law of Inertia states that a body in a state of rest or uniform motion remains in the same state until and unless an external force acts on it.
  • A body continues to be in its state of rest or in uniform motion along a straight line unless an external force is applied on it. This law is also called law of inertia.

A skydiver of mass 80kg jumps from a slow moving aircraft and reach a terminal speed of 50 m/s. What's her acceleration when her
miskamm [114]

Answer:

a = g = 9.81[m/s^2]

Explanation:

This problem can be solve using the second law of Newton.

We know that the forces acting over the skydiver are only his weight, and it is equal to the product of the mass by the acceleration.

m*g = m*a

where:

g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]

a = acceleration [m/s^2]

Note: If the skydiver will be under air resistance forces his acceleration will be different.
