Answer:

b) Ammonia (NH3) and methane (CH4) because they contain hydrogen but do not dissociate to form hydrogen ions.

Explanation:

A substance will be classified as a base according to Arrhenius theory if it produces OH (-) hydroxide ions in water. Ammonia (NH3) is a basic substance, but it is not an Arrhenius base because it does not release hydroxide ions into solution, the same happens with methane (CH4),  where all four hydrogens are bound very tightly to the carbon and are not going anywhere.

What is the difference between ionic and covalent compounds?
k0ka [10]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

D. All the above

  • Covalent compounds are always poor conductors of electricity while ionic compounds conduct electricity well when melted or dissolved.
  • Covalent compounds can be solid, liquid or gas, but ionic compounds are solids.
  • In covalent compounds the elements present are usually close together on the periodic table whereas in ionic compounds they are usually well separated.
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u>Ionic compounds are compounds that are formed from strong electrostatic interactions between ions.</u> Ionic bonding occurs between a nonmetal, which acts as an electron acceptor, and a metal, which acts as an electron donor. The atoms involved in ionic bonding lose or gain electrons and form positively or negatively charged ions.
  • <em><u>Ionic compound are good conductors of electricity both in molten and aqueous form,. while covalent compound are poor conductors of electricity.</u></em>
  • <u>Covalent compounds on the other hand are compounds that have bonds where electrons are shared between atoms.</u> These types bonds mostly occur between nonmetals or between two atoms of the same element.
