Answer:

A. electrons simultaneously attracted by more than one nucleus

Explanation:

  • Covalent bond is the bond which is formed with the sharing of the electrons between the two atoms which are taking part in the bond. It is generally formed between the atoms with similar electronegativity values.
  • It is the bond which is generally occurs within non metals as they share electrons to complete their octet.
  • The difference in the electronegativity values of the atoms involving in a covalent bond must not exceed the value of 1.7 .

Thus, the electrons are attracted by the two different nucleus of the atoms that are taking part in the bonding.

<u>So, the correct answer is:- A. electrons simultaneously attracted by more than one nucleus</u>

What volume of 0.500 m h2so4 is needed to react completely with 20.0 ml of 0.400 m lioh?
ExtremeBDS [4]
The balanced chemical equation for the above reaction is as follows;
2LiOH + H₂SO₄ ---> Li₂SO₄ + 2H₂O
stoichiometry of base to acid is 2:1
Number of OH⁻ moles reacted = number of H⁺ moles reacted at neutralisation
Number of LiOH moles reacted = 0.400 M / 1000 mL/L x 20.0 mL = 0.008 mol 
number of H₂SO₄ moles reacted - 0.008 mol /2 = 0.004 mol 
Number of H₂SO₄ moles in 1 L - 0.500 M
This means that 0.500 mol  in 1 L solution 
Therefore 0.004 mol in - 1/0.500 x 0.004 = 0.008 L 
therefore volume of acid required = 8 mL

2NO + 3MnO2 + 4H â 2NO3- + 3Mn2 + 2H2O For the above redox reaction, assign oxidation numbers and use them to identify the eleme
mixer [17]

Answer:

Manganese decreases from 4+ to 2+ (reduced and oxidizing agent) and nitrogen increases from 2+ to 5+ (oxidized and reducing agent).

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given redox reaction, we rewrite it as a convenient first step:

2NO + 3MnO_2 + 4H^+ \rightarrow 2NO_3^- + 3Mn^{2+} + 2H_2O

Next, we assign the oxidation numbers as follows:

2N^{2+}O^{2-} + 3Mn^{4+}O^{-2}_2 + 4H^+ \rightarrow 2(N^{5+}O^{2-}_3)^- + 3Mn^{2+} + 2H^+_2O^{2-}

Thus, we can see that both manganese and nitrogen undergo a change in their oxidation number, the former decreases from 4+ to 2+ (reduced and oxidizing agent) and the latter increases from 2+ to 5+ (oxidized and reducing agent).

Regards!
