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.

A compound distributes between benzene (solvent 1) and water (solvent 2) with a distribution coefficient, K = 2.7. If 1.0g of th

mote1985 [20]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Solvent 1 = benzene, Solvent 2 = water

$K_{p}$ = 2.7, $V_{S_{2}}$ = 100 mL

$V_{S_{1}}$ = 10 mL, weight of compound = 1 g

Extract = 3

Therefore, calculate the fraction remaining as follows.

$f_{n} = [1 + K_{p}(\frac{V_{S_{2}}}{V_{S_{1}}})]^{-n}$

= $[1 + 2.7(\frac{100}{10})]^{-3}$

= $(28)^{-3}$

= $4.55 \times 10^{-5}$

Hence, weight of compound to be extracted = weight of compound - fraction remaining

= 1 - $4.55 \times 10^{-5}$

= 0.00001

or, = $1 \times 10^{-5}$

Thus, we can conclude that weight of compound that could be extracted is $1 \times 10^{-5}$ .
