Why is the covalent bond between two atoms of the same element a nonpolar bond?

Chemistry

Aloiza [94]4 years ago

It is nonpolar because neither side is more electronegative/greedy than the other, and the electrons are shared equally, therefore forming no positive/negative charge on opposite ends.

Why is cl2 a subcript​
vazorg [7]

Answer:

In Cl_2, the 2 is a subscript because it indicates there are 2 of the same elements. The Lewis structure would display it as Cl-Cl.

On the other hand, a superscript would indicate a specific charge.

All subscripts show the amount of the specific element there is.

An example would be O_2\\ or N_2, they both show that there are 2 of the same elements.

If the subscript is outside a parenthesis such as Ca_3(PO_4)_2 it indicates there are 2 PO_4 molecules.

The atomic number of nitrogen is 7. Nitrogen-15 has a greater mass number than nitrogen-14 because the atomic nucleus of nitroge
Varvara68 [4.7K]

The difference in the mass of the Nitrogen-14 and Nitrogen-15 atom is because nitrogen-15 has 8 neutrons while nitrogen-14 has 7 neutrons.

<h3>What is atomic mass of an element?</h3>

Atomic mass of an element is the sum of the masses of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.

<h3>Why is the atomic mass of Nitrogen-14 and Nitrogen-15 different?</h3>

The difference in the mass of the Nitrogen-14 and Nitrogen-15 atom is due to the difference in the number of neutrons.

Nitogen-15 has 8 neutrons while nitrogen-14 has 7 neutrons.

Therefore, the difference in the mass of the Nitrogen-14 and Nitrogen-15 atom is because nitrogen-15 has 8 neutrons while nitrogen-14 has 7 neutrons.

What is the x-coordinate of the function below when the y-coordinate is 0?<br><br>(0,5) (2,-5)
maria [59]

The equation of the function is assumed to be a straight line is of the form,

y= mx+c,  where  m,c

are the gradient and the y intercept respectively.

The gradient is computed using the formula for the gradient, i.e

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =  \frac{-5-5}{2-0} = -5.

The equation of the line is,

y= -5x+c\\=>5=-5(0)+c\\=> c= 5


The equation of the function is ,

y = -5x+5..

The value of the x-coordinate when the y coordinate is 0 is found as shown below.

0=-5x+5\\=>x=1\\.

so the x-coordinate is 1.
