In CO which element holds electron more tightly​

Chemistry

Answer:

Oxygen

Explanation:

The covalent bond is the chemical bond between atoms where electrons are shared, forming a molecule. Covalent bonds are established between non-metallic elements, such as hydrogen H, oxygen O and chlorine Cl. These elements have many electrons in their outermost level (valence electrons) and have a tendency to gain electrons to acquire the stability of the electronic structure of noble gas. The shared electron pair is common to the two atoms and holds them together.

If the atoms are different, as in this case, the bond will be polarized towards the most electronegative atom, because it will be the atom that attracts the pair of electrons with more force.

Oxygen has more electronegativity than carbon, so it will attract electrons shared with carbon more strongly.

If ine mole of pennies were divided amung 250 million peoplein
Airida [17]

Answer:

2.4088\times 10^{13} dollars each person will receive.

Explanation:

Number of people in which 1 mole of pennies is distributed = 250 million =

1 million = 10^6

250 million = 2.5\times 10^8 persons

Number of pennies in 1 mole = 6.022\times 10^{23}

Pennies per person:

\frac{6.022\times 10^{23} pennies}{2.5\times 10^8 persons}=2.4088\times 10^{15} pennies/person

1 penny = 0.01 $

2.4088\times 10^{15} pennies/person=2.4088\times 10^{15}\times 0.01 \$/person=2.4088\times 10^{13} \$/person

2.4088\times 10^{13} dollars each person will receive.
