Why are covalent bonds between hydrogen and nitrogen or oxygen polar? see section 2.1 ( page 57) ?

1 answer:

5 0

A covalent bond is on in which electron pairs are shared between one or more electron pairs between atoms. Polar covalent bonds are so called because the electron density is closer to one atom participating in the bond than to another. The tendency of electron density to be closer to one atom and not the other can be due to the geometry of the bond.

Describe the term molarity as it relates to an acid or base.

Sidana [21]

Molarity is expressed as the number of moles of solute per volume of the solution. For example, we are given a solution of 2M NaOH this describes a solution that has 2 moles of NaOH per 1 L volume of the solution. Acids and bases can be measured through the concentrations of H+ and OH- ions in units of molarity. Hope this helps.
