Ammonia is NH3, meaning there are three bonds. All three bonds are between nitrogen and hydrogen, one each per hydrogen atom. If dissolved in water, they can also be called ammonium hydroxide. (NH4OH)

Answer: 3 covalent bonds

Explanation:

Covalent bond is formed by equal sharing of bonded Electrons.

Generally covalent bond is formed between non metals. In our example, NH3 ,both N and H are non metals.

In NH3, nitrogen is Central atom and it is surrounded by 3 He.

Each hydrogen is attached to nitrogen by covalent bonds.

Hence no of covalent bonds:3

Identify which one is the reducing agent in this reaction
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Na.

Explanation:

  • The oxidation-reduction reaction contains a reductant and an oxidant (oxidizing agent).
  • An oxidizing agent, or oxidant, gains electrons and is reduced in a chemical reaction. Also known as the electron acceptor, the oxidizing agent is normally in one of its higher possible oxidation states because it will gain electrons and be reduced.
  • A reducing agent (also called a reductant or reducer) is an element (such as calcium) or compound that loses (or "donates") an electron to another chemical species in a redox chemical reaction.

  • For the reaction:

<em>2Na + S → Na₂S.</em>

<em></em>

Na is oxidized to Na⁺ in (Na₂S) (loses 1 electron). "reducing agent".

S is reduced to S²⁻ in (Na₂S) (gains 2 electrons). "oxidizing agent".

What is potiential and kinetic engergy? pls someone answer my question
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Potential Energy is stored energy or energy of position (gravitational). The object isn't moving. For example, a ball being held is potential energy because the object isn't moving but it has the potential of turning into kinetic energy.

Kinetic Energy is the energy of motion. For example, running. You are moving, and there is clear action and activity
