Answer:
A covalent bond consists of the mutual sharing of one or more pairs of electrons between two atoms. These electrons are simultaneously attracted by the two atomic nuclei. A covalent bond forms when the difference between the electronegativities of two atoms is too small for an electron transfer to occur to form ions.

or no change. In the chemistry of nitrogen bacteria convert nitrogen
from the AIR, and hydrogen from cell into cell bound ammonia
N2 + 3 H2 -> 2 NH3
But where does that H2 come from? From metabolic reactions in the cell
that produce CO2 and H2O. The partial pressure from the gas CO2
molecule pretty much replaces the partial pressure of the N2, and any
real pressure difference would be made up of respiration of the H20 from
the cell into the air.

Answer: 0.050 moles of nitrogen monoxide are produced by 0.050 moles of ammonia.
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.
The balanced chemical reaction is:
According to stoichiometry:
4 moles of ammonia produce = 4 moles of nitrogen monoxide
Thus 0.050 moles of ammonia produce =
moles of nitrogen monoxide
Answer:
Alkali metal hydroxides can be used to test the identity of metals in certain salts. The colour of the precipitate will help identify the metal : Calcium hydroxide is soluble; no precipitate is formed.
Answer:
B. Lower than 100 °C because hydrogen sulfide has dipole-dipole interactions instead of hydrogen bonding.
Explanation:
Intermolecular bonds exists between seperate molecules or units. Their relative strength determines many physical properties of substances like state of matter, solubility of water, boiling point, volatility, viscosity etc. Examples are Van der waals forces, hydrogen bonds and crystal lattice forces.
In hydrogen sulfide, the intermolecular bond is a dipole-dipole attraction which is a type of van der waals attraction. It occurs as an attraction between polar molecules. These molecules line such that the positive pole of one molecule attracts the negative pole of another.
In water, the intermolecular bond is hydrogen bonds in which an electrostatic attraction exists between the hydrogen atom of one molecule and the electronegative atom of a neighbouring molecule.
Based on their relative strength:
Van der Waals forces < Hydrogen bonding forces < crystal lattice
This makes water boil at a higher temperature than hydrogen sulfide.
