When two carbon atoms are joined by a double bond, how many electron pairs are shared between the two carbons

Chemistry
1 answer:
NikAS [45]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Two (2) electron pairs

Explanation:

The sharing of electron pairs by atoms forms a type of bond called COVALENT bond. Atoms that form covalent bonding (share electrons) do so in order to fill their outermost electron shells, hence, gain chemical stability.

However, when two atoms like carbon share TWO PAIRS of electrons with each other, a DOUBLE BOND is formed. An example is the double bond formed in Ethylene (2HC=CH2). A total of four valence electrons (a pair from each carbon) are shared between the two carbon atoms.

Jack is playing with a Newton's cradle. As he lifts one ball to position A and drops it, it impacts the other balls at position
svetlana [45]

Answer:

Newton's Cradle is a neat way to demonstrate the principle of the CONSERVATION OF MOMENTUM.

What happens here is when the ball on one end of the cradle is swung and it hits the other balls that are motionless, or stationary, the momentum of the swinging ball is transferred to the next ball upon impact.

Momentum is not lost in this action, what happens when it hits the next ball, the momentum is transferred to the next one, and then the next, and the the next, till it reaches the last ball on the other end. Since nothing is next to the last ball, it pushes the ball upwards, which will swing down and repeat the process going the other way.

This also demonstrates the CONSERVATION OF ENERGY. As you will see, the energy continues to move through the other balls, passing it from one ball to the other, which keeps this constantly moving.
