<em>B. A covalent bond has a lower potential energy than the two separate atoms.</em> TRUE.

<em>C. Single bonds are shorter than double bonds.</em> FALSE. Single bonds are longer than double bonds.

<em>D. A covalent bond is formed through the transfer of electrons from one atom to another.</em> FALSE. In covalent bonds, electrons are shared, not transferred from one atom to another.

Depression can cause amygdala to enlarge. This is a part of the brain associated with emotional responses.

PLEASE HELP ME!<br> Determine the number of atoms in 4.27 g gold.
solmaris [256]

This can be done with some simple dimensional analysis. First you convert your gram of gold into moles of gold There are 196.97 grams of gold for every one mole of gold so you divide 4.27 by 196.67 to get 0.0217 moles of gold. You then multiply the moles of gold by Avogadro's number, 6.02 X 10^23. Avogadro's number indicates the number of atoms in one mole. Therefore, there are 1.307 X 10^22 atoms in 4.27 grams of gold.
