What causes atoms to form covalent bonds?

Chemistry
1 answer:

Sharing of valence electrons.

Explanation:

In a covalent bonds, there is sharing of the valence electrons used in bonding between the two combining species.

The atoms taking part do not have a wide electronegativity difference between them and so they share the valence electrons to complete their octet and ensure their stability.

  • For the formation of this bond type, each of the atom requires a odd or unpaired electrons.
  • Covalent bonds are formed between atoms having zero or very small electronegativity difference.

I need to make up an experiment !! Please help
katen-ka-za [31]

Question: Baking a Cake Without Flour.

Hypothesis: I think that when I remove the flour from the standard cake recipe, I'll end up with a flat but tasty cake.

Procedure: I baked two cakes during my experiment. For my control, I baked a cake following a normal recipe. I used the Double Fudge Cake recipe on page 292 of the Betty Crocker Cookbook. For my experimental cake, I followed the same recipe but left out the flour. I first obtained a 2-quart mixing bowl.  

Results: My control cake, which I cooked for 25 minutes, measured 4 cm high.  Eight out of ten tasters that I picked at random from the class found it to be an acceptable dessert. After 25 minutes of baking, my experimental cake was 1.5 cm high and all ten tasters refused to eat it because it was burnt to a crisp.

What did I learn?/Conclusion: Since the experimental cake burned, my results did not support my hypothesis.  I think that the cake burned because it had less mass, but cooked for the same amount of time.  I propose that the baking time be shortened in subsequent trials.

What is the ratio of the magenta phenolphthalein concentration to the colorless phenolphthalein concentration ([magenta phenolph
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

\frac{[magenta\ phenolphthalein]}{[colorless\ phenolphthalein]}=31.62

Explanation:

Considering the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pH of the buffer solution as:

pH=pKa+\log\frac{[base]}{[acid]}

Where Ka is the dissociation constant of the acid.

pKa of phenolphthalein = 9.40

pH = 10.9

So,

10.9=9.40+\log\frac{[magenta\ phenolphthalein]}{[colorless\ phenolphthalein]}

\frac{[magenta\ phenolphthalein]}{[colorless\ phenolphthalein]}=31.62

Which of the following best explains why ionic crystals are brittle?​
Natalka [10]

Packing

Explanation:

Ionic crystals are  brittle due to the tight packing of their crystals. This provides little to no mobility between one another.

  • Brittleness implies having little to no elasticity.
  • Ionic crystals are held together by strong crystal lattice forces
  • These forces prevents crystals from freely rotating and moving space.
  • It holds them rigidly and fixed in place.
  • Ionic crystals are hard and held electrostatic forces.
