Answer:

D = A bond resulting from the transfer of one or more electrons.

Explanation:

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Explanation:

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion.  

while by sharing of electrons covalent bond is formed.

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial negative.

Which of the following is true regarding a voltaic (or galvanic) cell? a) It can only be used with hydrogen. b) It produces elec
N76 [4]

Answer:

b) It produces electrical current spontaneously.

Explanation:

Cells capable of converting chemical energy to electrical energy and vice versa are termed Electrochemical cells. There are two types of electrochemical cells viz: Galvanic or Voltaic cells and Electrolytic cells. Voltaic cell is an elctrochemical cell capable of generating electrical energy from the chemical reaction occuring in it.

The voltaic cell uses spontaneous reduction-oxidation (redox) reactions to generate ions in a half cell that causes electric currents to flow. An half cell is a part of the galvanic cell where either oxidation or reduction reaction is taking place. Hence, the spontaneous production of electric currents is true about Voltaic/Galvanic cells.

¿Cómo se escribe la fórmula molecular (orden de los iones)?
cluponka [151]

Answer:

A la izquierda el catión y a la derecha el anión.

Explanation:

¡Hola!

En este caso, y basado en las normas IUPAC para la escritura de las fórmulas moleculares, es necesario primero escribir el catión a la izquerda, seguido del anión a la derecha, tal y como se muestra en los siguientes ejemplos, recordando que el catión es el ion cargado positivamente y el anión, negativamente:

K^+Cl^-\\\\Ag_2^+(SO_4)^{2-}

Los cuales son cloruro de potasio y sulfato de plata respectivamente. También es necesario tener en cuenta que los metales tienden a ser cationes por su capacidad de perder electrones, mientras que los no metales a ganarlos y por ende resultar como aniones.

¡Un gusto ayudarte!
