How many resonance structures or isomers does ch4 have?

Chemistry

Answer : Methane CH_{4} does not has any resonating structures or isomers.


Explanation : Methane has tetrahedral geometry where all the valence bonds of carbon are satisfied with hydrogen atoms which are similar to each other. They also do not produce any lewis dot structure. Therefore, methane cannot have resonating structures.

Answer:

Zero.

Explanation:

Hello,

As long as methane has hydrogen atoms all around the carbon atom sharing four valance electrons to attain the octate in a tetrahedral structure, no matter where the hydrogens get moved, its molecular arrangement will always have the same Lewis structure or 3D projection (attached picture) in this manner, it does not have any resonance structures.

Best regards.

Among the following, which element has the lowest ionization energy? Question 2 options: Cs Na Cl I
marissa [1.9K]
The element with the lowest ionization energy is CESIUM, CS.
Ionization energy is the energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron in an atom of an element. The higher the number of shells in an atom of an element, the lower the ionization energy that will be required to remove the valence electron.

When sodium is put in water, the metal floats on the surface and reacts to form sodium
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer: Sodium also floats on the surface, but enough heat is given off to melt the sodium (sodium has a lower melting point than lithium and the reaction produces heat faster) and it melts almost at once to form a small silvery ball that dashes around the surface.

Answer:

The answer is "\bold{HClO_3 > HClO_2 >HClO > HBrO}"

Explanation:

We arrange oxoacids to decrease the intensity of acids in this question. Or we may conclude all this from strongest to weakest acids they order oxoacids, that's why above given order is correct.

How many protons and electrons does oxygen have? What about hydrogen? Draw a model of each atom if that helps you think about th
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Two electrons fit in the first shell out from the nucleus and eight fit in the second. Every element with more protons than the two of Helium needs to work on shells outside the first one. one you get to ten, you have filled the first two shells.

In a water molecule, oxygen forms one covalent bond with EACH of TWO hydrogen atoms. As a result, the oxygen atom has a stable arrangement of 8 valence electrons. Each hydrogen atom forms only one bond because it needs only two electrons to be stable.
