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

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.

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

3.53×10⁶ N/c due west

Explanation:

From the question

E = F'/q........................ Equation 1

Where E =  Electric Field, F = Net Force, q = Charge.

But,

F' = F₂-F₁...................... Equation 2

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

E = (F₂-F₁)/q................ Equation 3

Given: F₁ = 3 N due east, F₂ = 15 N due west,  q = 3.4×10⁻⁶ C

Substitute these values into equation 1

E = (15-3)/(3.4×10⁻⁶)

E = 12/(3.4×10⁻⁶)

E = 3.53×10⁶ N/c due west

Why is it important for the path of a circuit to be circular?
vredina [299]

Answer:

When the platform rotates, the rotating mass will travel in a circular path due to the force exerted on it by the string (by way of the tension in the spring). Since it is not possible to have an instantaneous readout of this tension force while the platform is rotating, an indirect measurement of this force will be made using the weight of the static mass as shown and explained below.

A voltmeter with resistance rv is connected across the terminals of a battery of emf e and internal resistance r. Find the poten
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

V = I(R+r)

Explanation:

According to ohms law, the current (I) passing through a metallic conductor at constant temperature is directly proportional to the potential difference (V) across its end.

Mathematically, V= IR where V is the potential difference

I is the current

R is resistance

Given emf (E) = IRt... (1)

where E is the emf

Rt is the total equivalent resistance

The external resistance Rv is connected in series with the internal resistance 'r' to give total equivalent resistance Rt = (R+r)

Substituting in equation 1

E = I(R+r)

The equivalent potential difference V = I(R+r)
