What causes atoms to form covalent bonds?

Chemistry
1 answer:
tino4ka555 [31]3 years ago
6 0

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(n) _______________ can be formed by linking together several monosaccharides via glycosidic bonds.
mario62 [17]

Answer:

A polysaccharide (n) can be formed by linking several monosaccharides through glycosidic linkages.

Explanation:

Polysaccharides are carbohydrates or complex carbohydrates, where monosaccharides join with glucosidic bonds to form a more complex structure that would be the polysaccharide.

An example of a polysaccharide is starch, or glycogen.

Starch is found in many foods such as potatoes or rice, and glycogen is a form of energy reserve of our organism housed in muscles and liver to fulfill locomotion, physical activity, and other activities that consist of glycolysis.

Polysaccharides are degraded in our body by different stages, and several enzymes unlike monosoccharides or disaccharides, since they have more unions and a more complex structure to disarm in our body and thus assimilate it.

Polysaccharides are also part of animal structures, such as insect shells or nutritional sources, among others.

A sample of n2 effuses in 255 s. how long will the same size sample of cl2 take to effuse?
7nadin3 [17]
For this problem, we use Graham's Effusion Law to find out the rate of effusion of chlorine gas. The formula is as follows:

R₁/R₂ = √(M₂/M₁)

Let 1 be N₂ while 2 be Cl₂

255/R₂ = √(28/70.8)
Solving for R₂,
R₂ = 405.5 s

<em>Thus, it would take 405.5 s to effuse chlorine gas.</em>

What is the volume of 2.1 moles of chlorine gas (Cl2) at standard temperature and pressure (STP)?
uysha [10]
Given:
<span> 2.1 moles of chlorine gas (Cl2) at standard temperature and pressure (STP)
Required:
volume of CL2
Solution:
Use the ideal gas law
PV = nRT
V = nRT/P
V = (2.1 moles Cl2) (0.08203 L - atm / mol - K) (273K) / (1 atm)
V = 47 L</span>

The density of solid Cr is 7.15 g/cm3. How many atoms are present per cubic centimeter of Cr?
Masja [62]
To calculate the number of atoms of Cr, we first find the number of moles per unit of cubic centimeter of Cr. Then, use avogadros number for the number of atoms. Calculations are as follows:

1 cm^3 (7.15 g/cm^3) (1 mol / 51.996 g Cr) = 0.14 mol Cr

0.14 mol Cr ( 6.022 x 10^23 atoms Cr / 1 mol Cr ) = 8.28 x 10^22 atoms Cr

I’m struggling with dimensional analysis in chemistry! Will someone please help me with .74 Kcal/min to cal/sec ? Explain and gi
valina [46]

Answer:

            12.33 cal/sec

Explanation:

As we know,

                          1 Kcal  =  1000 cal

So,

                     0.74 Kcal  =  X cal

Solving for X,

                      X =  (0.74 Kcal × 1000 cal) ÷ 1 Kcal

                      X =  740 cal

Also we know that,

                      1 Minute  =  60 Seconds

Therefore, in order to derive cal/sec unit replace 0.74 Kcal by 740 cal and 1 min by 60 sec in given unit as,

                                       = 740 cal / 60 sec

                                       = 12.33 cal/sec
