Answer:
In a covalent bond, the atoms bond by sharing electrons. Covalent bonds usually occur between nonmetals. For example, in water (H2O) each hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) share a pair of electrons to make a molecule of two hydrogen atoms single bonded to a single oxygen atom.

The chemical formula for the compound containing 8.6 mol of sulfur and 3.42 mol of phosphorus is P₂S₅
<h3>How do I determine the formula of the compound?</h3>
From the question given above, the following data were obatined:
- Sulphur (S) = 8.6 moles
- Phosphorus (P) = 3.42 mole
- Chemical formula =?
The chemical formula of the compound can be obtained as follow:
Divide by their molar mass
S = 8.6 / 32 = 0.26875
P = 3.42 / 31 = 0.11032
Divide by the smallest
S = 0.26875 / 0.11032 = 2.44
P = 0.11032 / 0.11032 = 1
Multiply by 2 to express in whole number
S = 2.44 × 2 = 5
P = 1 × 2 = 2
Thus, the chemical formula is P₂S₅

Ok first, we have to create a balanced equation for the dissolution of nitrous acid.
HNO2 <-> H(+) + NO2(-)
Next, create an ICE table
HNO2 <--> H+ NO2-
[]i 0.230M 0M 0M
Δ[] -x +x +x
[]f 0.230-x x x
Then, using the concentration equation, you get
4.5x10^-4 = [H+][NO2-]/[HNO2]
4.5x10^-4 = x*x / .230 - x
However, because the Ka value for nitrous acid is lower than 10^-3, we can assume the amount it dissociates is negligable,
assume 0.230-x ≈ 0.230
4.5x10^-4 = x^2/0.230
Then, we solve for x by first multiplying both sides by 0.230 and then taking the square root of both sides.
We get the final concentrations of [H+] and [NO2-] to be x, which equals 0.01M.
Then to find percent dissociation, you do final concentration/initial concentration.
0.01M/0.230M = .0434 or
≈4.34% dissociation.
The substance that can act as an Arrhenius base in aqueous solution is sodium hydroxide since NaOH dissociates in water giving the sodium ions and the hydroxide ions. An Arrhenius base is a substance that is characterized by forming hydroxide ions in an aqueous solution.
