If a metal is bonded to carbon, they form ionic bonds. If a nonmetal forms a bond with carbon, they form covalent bond. Ionic bond requires metals to give away electrons to form cations and nonmetal to gain/accept electron to form anions. Covalent bond requires sharing of electrons between both elements. So if you meant exchange as in covalent bond, then no. Not many nonmetal elements form bonds with carbon as there are more metal elements in the periodic table.

<span>Scientists have determined that the center of the earth is 6371 km below the surface. But how has this been determined? Many people might answer that question by saying scientists can drill into the Earth with machines. However, the drilling rigs that scientists use can only drill about 20 km in the Earth which is not very deep! In other words, we can only drill into upper part of the crust of the earth. Extremely high temperatures and pressures within the Earth make drilling into it very difficult</span>
Answer:
36.63 Torr
Explanation:
You need to use two expressions, one for pressure and the other with the relation of density and height of the column.
For the pressure:
P = h * d * g (1)
h is height.
d density
g gravity
The second expression put a relation between the densities and height of the column so:
d1/d2 = h1/h2 (2)
let 1 be the phthalate, and 2 the mercury.
Let's calculate first the relation of density:
d1/d2 = 13.53 / 1.046 = 12.93
Now with the first expression, we can calculate the pressure so:
P = hdg
We have two compounds so,
h1d1g = h2d2g ---> gravity cancels out
From here, we can solve for h2:
h2 = h1*(d1/d2)
replacing:
h2 = 459 / 12.53
h2 = 36.63 mm
1 mmHg is 1 torr, therefore the pressure of the gas in Torr would be 36.63 Torr
