Why does carbon have the ability to form multiple bonds?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
stepan [7]3 years ago

Carbon has the ability to form multiple bonds because it has four valence electrons. Having four valence electrons means that carbon has a lot of space to form bonds with other atoms, or multiple bonds, in order to reach the full octet.

Hope this helps!! :)

1. The following reaction does not proceed to form a product: H2O + Au---> no reaction. Why is that?
Xelga [282]
1. B
The positive charge in water is provided by hydrogen, and gold provides the same charge. However, gold is not more reactive than hydrogen so it can not replace it in the compound.

2. In order to balance the equation, you must sure there are equal moles of each element on the left and right side of the equation:
2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + ₆H₂O

3. The number of moles of sodium atoms on the left of the equation must be equal to the number of moles of sodium atoms on the right, as per the law of conservation of mass. The answer is B.

4. C.
A synthesis reaction usually results from single displacement because some element or compound is produced in its pure form

5. B. 
The gas being produced is being synthesized.

What are all the stages of mitosis? (please make it long)
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Mitosis is conventionally divided into 5 phases, which include prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase and cytokinesis.

Interphase

Before coming into mitosis, a mobile spends a length of its increase underneath interphase.

Prophase

Prophase straight away follows the S and G2 levels of the cycle and is marked by way of condensation of the genetic fabric to form compact mitotic chromosomes composed of  chromatids attached at the centromere.

Prometaphase

In the prometaphase, the nuclear envelop disintegrates. Now the microtubules are allowed to extend from the centromere to the chromosome.

Metaphase

At this level, the microtubules start pulling the chromosomes with equal pressure and the chromosome ends up in the center of the cell. This area is referred to as the metaphase plate.

Anaphase

The splitting of the sister chromatids marks the onset of anaphase. These sister chromatids end up the chromosome of the daughter nuclei.

Telophase

The chromosomes that cluster at the two poles start coalescing into an undifferentiated mass, because the nuclear envelope begins forming round it.

A solid is 5 cm tall, 3 am wide, and 2 cm thick. It has a mass of 135 g. What is the solid's density?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

density of solid = 4.5 g/cm³

<u>Explanation:</u>

density = mass ÷ volume

• We know the mass of the object (135 g). We need to calculate the volume:

Volume = length × width × thickness

             = 5 cm × 3 cm × 2 cm

             = 30 cm³

• Now we can calculate the solid's density:

density = 135 g ÷ 30 cm³

            = 4.5 g/cm³
