Answer:

The single covalent bond is represented by a single ' - ' and it has 2 shared electrons from the the bonding atoms.

Double covalent bond is denoted with '=' and it has 4 shared electrons

Triple covalent bond is denoted by ' _=' and it has 6 shared electrons

Explanation:

In single covalent bond each participating atom contributes one electron each to be equally shared between them in order to form a single covalent bond. Thus a single covalent bond is formed when atoms share 2 electrons together

The double covalent bond is formed when each participating atom contributes two electrons each to be equally shared between them in order to form a double covalent bond. Thus a double covalent bond results from the sharing of 4 electrons together by two atoms. For example the formation of oxygen gas molecule

In triple covalent bonds, 6 electrons are shared and each pair of electrons forms a bond which results in triple covalent bonds. Each atom contributes 3 electrons for equal sharing.

Answer

A *single covalent bond* is formed by sharing one pair of valence electrons.They are less reactive comparatviely and have a high bond length

A *double covalent bond* is formed by sharing two pairs of valence electrons.They are moderately reactive and have moderate bond length.

A *triple covalent bond* is formed by sharing three pairs of valence electrons.They are highly reactive and have a low bond length.

Cuántos mililitros de agua hay en 3 litros de una botella de naranjas y las solucion tiene una concentracion de 20% v/v
sertanlavr [38]

Respuesta:

2400 mL

Explicación:

Paso 1: Información dada

  • Volumen de solución: 3 L (3000 mL)
  • Concentración de naranja: 20 % v/v

Paso 2: Calcular el volumen de naranja

La concentración de naranja es de 20 % v/v, es decir, cada 100 mL de solución hay 20 mL de naranja.

3000 mL Sol × 20 mL Naranja/100 mL Solución = 600 mL Naranja

Paso 3: Calcular el volumn de agua

El volumen de soluciónes igual a la suma de los volúmenes de naranja y agua.

VSolución = VNaranja + VAgua

VAgua = VSolución - VNaranja

VAgua = 3000 mL - 600 mL = 2400 mL

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Compound A is succinic anhydride and B is methyl succinate (the monomethyl ester).

Structural Diagram is attached.

Explanation:

A.

Succinic anhydride appears as colorless needles or white crystalline solid. ... Succinic anhydride, also called dihydro-2, 5-furandione, is an organic compound with the molecular formula C4H4O3. It is the acid anhydride of succinic acid.

B.

Monomethyl succinate is a dicarboxylic acid monoester that is succinic acid in which one of the carboxy groups has been converted to its methyl ester. It is a dicarboxylic acid monoester and a hemisuccinate. ... They have the general structure RC(=O)OR', where R=fatty aliphatic tail or organyl group and R'=methyl group.
