What kind of bond forms when atoms in a molecule do not share their electrons equally

1 answer:

6 0

Atoms in a molecule are said to be bonded when they share pairs of electrons with each other and this type of bonding is known as covalent bonding. When they share equal number of electrons in a pair and a full electron shell is completed, they become the most stable. But when the electrons are shared unequally by the atoms in a molecule, a POLAR COVALENT BOND is said to be shared by them. This happens as a result of two atoms sharing electron with different electronegativity i.e. the tendency to attract a shared pair of electrons.

Solid sodium reacts with liquid water to form hydrogen gas according to the equation 2 Na(s) + 2 H₂O(l) → 2 NaOH(aq) + H₂(g) Wha

lana66690 [7]

Answer: 21850.42mmHg or 28.78atm

Explanation: From the equation of the reaction, 2 moles of sodium reacts with 2 moles of water to produce 2 moles of NaoH and 1 mole of hydrogen gas at s.t.p.

molar volume of gas at s.t.p. = 22.4dm^3,

standard temperature = 0°C or 273K,

standard pressure = 760mmHg or 1atm,

molar mass of Na = 23g;

volume of the container= 20L or 20dm^3

From the equation, 2 moles or 46g of Na produces i mole or 22.4 dm^3 of hydrogen.

Therefore, 1kg or 1000g of Na will produce 22.4 * 1000/(46)= 486dm^3 of hydrogen.

To find the pressure of the gas produced, the formula P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

P1= 760mmHg, T1= 273K, V1 (initial volume of gas)= 486dm^3, T2=50.0°C or 50+273K= 323K, V2( final volume of gas= volume of vessel)=20dm^3 P2=?

P1= P1V1*T2/(V2T1)= 760mmHg * 323/(273)= 21850.42mmHg or 1atm*21850.42/760= 28.78atm

What is wrong with a bacterial cell if it cannot make protein

ivann1987 [24]

There are a variety of points in the transcriptional chain at which it is possible to disrupt protein synthesis in bacteria. Let’s enumerate just a few:

<span>There’s the initial point where DNA is transcribed into mRNA;<span>there’s the point where mRNA binds to the Ribosome complex;</span>there’s the point where tRNA-aminoacyl pair binds to the Ribosome according to the current codon being “read out” in the mRNA;there’s the point where the aminoacid transported by the tRNA is transferred to the growing protein chain; andthere’s the point where the protein synthesis is determined complete, and the Ribosome disengages and releases the newly-synthesized peptide chain.</span>

In each of these stages (and in some other, more subtle phases) there are possible points of disruption and there are specific disruptors; some of which are indicated in the aboveProtein synthesis inhibitor article.

Note, by the way, that the Ribosomes of Prokaryotes (bacteria) and Eukaryotes (cells with nuclei) aren’t identical, and therefore the inhibitors/disruptors that work for one type of cell may not (and usually don’t) work on the other type. That’s why we can take antibiotics targeted at bacteria with little to no fear of them interfering with our eukaryotic cells’ functions.

(This is a simplified, somewhat hand-wavy response. There is a lot more to say, mainly because biological systems are anything but simple. Nevertheless this should be enough to get you started in the general direction.)
