Atoms are fundamental constituents of all matter. The following statement is correct. The nucleus always has a positive charge. This is because the nucleus contains sub-atomic particles called protons. Each proton carries a single positive charge. The nucleus is also home to sub-atomic particles called neutrons that do not possess a charge.

[HELP PLEASE] Describe the difference between the ways valence electrons are rearranged when forming ionic bonds and covalent bo
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. It is a type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions. In ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion.

Functional groups create active sites in molecules. The polar part of a molecule that can hydrogen bond to water is said be hydr
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

Polar/Hydrophilic

Explanation:

Fluorine, Nitrogen and Oxygen are strong electronegative atoms and by definition, Electronegativity is the amount of pull or the high affinity of an atom to electrons.

Polar bond occurs when there is a high difference between the electronegativity value of both atoms that take part in the bond.

A polar molecule has a net dipole from the distribution of its positive and negayive charges. Hydrophobic and Hydrophilic (in chemistry, Polar) are terms dependent on the overall distribution of charge in its molecule.

Therefore, bonds between C-N, C-O and C-Cl are polar covalent bonds a d this is because of the jigh electronegativity possessed by Nitrogen, Oxygen and Chlorine.

The speed of sound depends on these two things:
IrinaVladis [17]

The speed of sound depends on these two things: The type of medium and the temperature of the medium; option a.

<h3>What is the speed of sound?</h3>

The speed of sound is the distance covered in meters over a given period of time.

Speed = distance/time

The speed of sound depends on the following:

  • temperature - the speed of sound increases with temperature
  • medium - the speed of sound increases with increase in density of the medium.

In conclusion, the speed of sound increases with temperature.
