Compare and contrast the two kinds of chemical bonds (ionic and covalent)

An Ionic bond is when you have a metal and a nonmetal element bonded together. In this kind of bonds, the metal atom takes electrons from the nonmetal. on other words, this bond involves the gaining and losing of electrons. The atom that receives the electrons becomes an anion (negatively charged ion) and the one that loses them becomes the cation (positively charged ion)

A covalent bond is a bond created between two nonmetals element. In here, both atoms share the electrons.

Both bonds involve interaction between atoms.

A solution contains 0.115 mol h2o and an unknown number of moles of nacl. the vapor pressure of the solution at 30°c is 25.7 tor
Valentin [98]
According to Raoult's low:
We will use this formula: Vp(Solution) = mole fraction of solvent * Vp(solvent)
∴ mole fraction of solvent = Vp(Solu) / Vp (Solv)
when we have Vp(solu) = 25.7 torr & Vp(solv) = 31.8 torr 
So by substitution:
∴ mole fraction of solvent = 25.7 / 31.8 =0.808 
when we assume the moles of solute NaCl = X 
and according to the mole fraction of solvent formula:
mole fraction of solvent = moles of solvent / (moles of solvent + moles of solute)
by substitute:
∴ 0.808 = 0.115 / (0.115 + X)
 So X (the no.of moles of NaCl) = 0.027 m

CHEM! Why do we use roman numerals (aka stock system) when you write the name for a compound with (example:) tin in it even thou
mylen [45]

Roman numerals are used in naming ionic compounds when the metal cation forms more than one ion. The metals that form more than one ion are the transition metals, although not all of them do this.

Is this equation completely balanced? 2C8H8 + 25O2 8CO2 + 18H2O No, because the number of carbon, hydrogen & oxygen atoms on
Sergio039 [100]
<span>So to make it clear let's break the equation down species by species and assess the number of each species on bothe sides of the equation:
                   2C</span>₈H₈  +  25O₂   →   8CO₂ +  18H₂<span>O
LHS:  C - 16                                           RHS:  C - 8
          H - 16                                                     H - 36
          O - 50                                                    O - 34

Thus based on that it is evident that the equation is not quite balanced.  This therefore means a "</span><span>No, because the number of carbon, hydrogen & oxygen atoms on both sides of the equation are not equal."

</span>The actual balance equation would be C₈H₈  +  10O₂   →   8CO₂ +  4H₂O
