State each of the following statement true or false? A. A carbon atom can form up to four covalent bonds. B. A carbon atom has s

ix electrons in its outermost shell. C. The bond between a carbon and hydrogen atom is a polar bond. D. Oxygen and nitrogen have a stronger electronegativity than carbon (e.g., a strong pull on a shared electron). E. Bonds between carbon and other atoms are relatively unstable and readily dissociate, resulting in the formation of new molecules. F. The carbon backbone of a molecule is made up of a string of carbon atoms held together with either single or double bonds. G. The carbon backbone of a molecule comes in a variety of shapes: linear, ring-like, or highly branched. H. Carbon is a relatively large atom allowing it to bind to more atoms than smaller atoms would, thereby making it more versatile.

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

A. A carbon atom can form up to four covalent bonds. True

B. A carbon atom has six electrons in its outermost shell. False, a  carbon atom only has 4 electrons in its outermost shell.

C. The bond between a carbon and hydrogen atom is a polar bond. True

D. Oxygen and nitrogen have a stronger electronegativity than carbon (e.g., a strong pull on a shared electron). True, carbon electronagativity is 2.55, while oxygen and nitrogen electronegativities are 3.44 and 3.04.

E. Bonds between carbon and other atoms are relatively unstable and readily dissociate, resulting in the formation of new molecules. False, carbon bonds are very stable.

F. The carbon backbone of a molecule is made up of a string of carbon atoms held together with either single or double bonds. True, carbon can form strings with single, double or triple bonds.

G. The carbon backbone of a molecule comes in a variety of shapes: linear, ring-like, or highly branched. True, carbon molecules can form a great variety of shapes.

H. Carbon is a relatively large atom allowing it to bind to more atoms than smaller atoms would, thereby making it more versatile. False, carbon atom is a small molecule.

what is the balanced equation when copper metal is placed in a solution when platnium ii chloride is placed. what is the equatio
koban [17]

Answer:

Cu~+~PtCl_2->Pt~+~CuCl_2

Explanation:

In this case, we can start with the <u>formula of Platinum (II) Chloride</u>. The cation is the atom at the left of the name (in this case Pt^+^2) and the anion is the atom at the right of the name (in this case Cl^-). With this in mind, the <u>formula would be</u> PtCl_2.

Now, if we used <u>metallic copper</u> we have to put in the reaction only the <u>copper atom symbol</u> Cu. So, we have as reagents:

Cu~+~PtCl_2->

The question now is: <u>What would be the products?</u> To answer this, we have to remember <u>"single displacement reactions"</u>. With a general reaction:

A~+~BC->AB~+~C

With this in mind, the reaction would be:

Cu~+~PtCl_2->Pt~+~CuCl_2

I hope it helps!

if 11.74 liters of gas at STP are pumped into a basketball, how many moles of gas are in the basketball? assume the basketball w
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

0.52 mol

Explanation:

Using the general gas equation formula:

PV = nRT

Where;

P = pressure (atm)

V = volume (Liters)

n = number of moles (mol)

R = gas law constant (0.0821 Latm/molK)

T = temperature (K)

At STP (standard temperature and pressure), temperature of a gas is 273K, while its pressure is 1 atm

Using PV = nRT

n = PV/RT

n = (1 × 11.74) ÷ (0.0821 × 273)

n = 11.74 ÷ 22.41

n = 0.52 mol

There are 0.52 moles in the basketball

<h2>How Diamond and Graphite are chemically identical?</h2>
  • On heating diamond or graphite in the air, they burn completely to form carbon dioxide.
  • - Equal quantities of diamond and graphite when burned, produce exactly the same amount of carbon dioxide.

<h2>Why the physical properties of diamond and graphite are so different?</h2>

Due to the difference in the arrangement of carbon atoms in diamond and graphite
