Which statement explains why the bonds between non metals tend to be covalent

Chemistry
1 answer:
UNO [17]2 years ago
6 0
Since the choices are missing, I will tell you why non-metals tend to form covalent bonds. You can then link this answer to the best fit choice.

Ionic bond is only formed due to an electrostatic attraction force between ions of opposite charges which cannot happen in case of non-metals whose ions are mostly anions.

On the other hand, a covalent bond is formed due to electrons being shared among different atoms. This conditions is satisfied for the bonds between non-metals

Why is water a polar molecule? ? Why is water a polar molecule? ? 4 following 6 answers 6 Report Abuse Are you sure you want to
anyanavicka [17]
In a covalent bond one atom can attract the shared electrons more strongly than the other atom can. Water or H2O has a covalent bond whose Oxygen atoms attract more electrons that its Hydrogen atom. Since electrons have a negative charge, the Oxygen atom has a partial negative charge and the Hydrogen atom has a partial positive charge. These partial charges are what make water a polar molecule.marrit <span>· 2 years ago</span>

If you start with 3 moles of sodium and 3 moles of chlorine to produce sodium chloride, what is the limiting reagent?(you will n
Harman [31]

Sodium(Na) is the limiting reagent.

<h3>What is Limiting reagent?</h3>

The reactant that is totally consumed during a reaction, or the limiting reagent, decides when the process comes to an end. The precise quantity of reactant required to react with another element may be estimated from the reaction stoichiometry.

How do you identify a limiting reagent?

The limiting reactant is the one that is consumed first and sets a limit on the quantity of product(s) that can be produced. Calculate how many moles of each reactant are present and contrast this ratio with the mole ratio of the reactants in the balanced chemical equation to get the limiting reactant.

Start by writing the balanced chemical equation that describes this reaction

2Na_{(s)} + Cl_{2 (g)} -- > 2NaCl_{(s)}

Notice that the reaction consumes 2 moles of sodium metal for every 1 mole of chlorine gas that takes part in the reaction and produces 2 moles of sodium chloride.

now we can see that we have 3 moles of sodium and 3 moles of chlorine, according to question. so, we can say that sodium is the limiting reagent in the given situation.
