Covalent bonds form when atoms share electrons. This sharing allows each atom to achieve its octet of electrons and greater stability. Methane, CH 4<span>, the simplest organic compound, contains covalent bonds. Carbon has four valence electrons, while hydrogen has one valence electron. By sharing these outer‐shell electrons, carbon and hydrogen complete their valence shells and become more stable. The duet of electrons on the hydrogen is isoelectronic with helium and forms a complete shell.</span>
<span>The pressure inside a coke bottle is really high. This helps keep the soda carbonated. That is, the additional pressure at the surface of the liquid inside the bottle forces the bubbles to stay dissolved within the soda. </span><span>When the coke is opened, there is suddenly a great pressure differential. The initial loud hiss that is heard is this pressure differential equalizing itself. All of the additional pressure found within the bottle pushes gas out of the bottle until the pressure inside the bottle is the same as the pressure outside the bottle. </span><span>However, once this occurs, the pressure inside the bottle is much lower and the gas bubbles that had previously been dissolved into the soda have nothing holding them in the liquid anymore so they start rising out of the liquid. As they reach the surface, they pop and force small explosions of soda. These explosions are the source of the popping and hissing that continues while the soda is opened to the outside air. Of course, after a while, the soda will become "flat" when the only gas left dissolved in the liquid will be the gas that is held back by the relatively weak atmospheric pressure.</span>

<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Reaction
2H₂ + O₂ ⇒ 2H₂0 + energy
Required
Two changes would make this reaction reactant-favored
Solution
The formation of H₂O is an exothermic reaction (releases heat)
If the system temperature is raised, then the equilibrium reaction will reduce the temperature by shifting the reaction in the direction that requires heat (endotherms). Conversely, if the temperature is lowered, then the equilibrium shifts to a reaction that releases heat (exothermic)
While on the change in pressure, then the addition of pressure, the reaction will shift towards a smaller reaction coefficient
in the above reaction: the number of coefficients on the left is 3 (2 + 1) while the right is 2
As the temperature rises, the equilibrium will shift towards the endothermic reaction, so the reaction shifts to the left towards H₂ + O₂( reactant-favored)
And reducing the pressure, then the reaction shifts to the left H₂ + O₂( reactant-favored)⇒the number of coefficients is greater
