Which of these is not a covalent molecule?<br> 1. F2<br> 2. CO<br> 3. LiF<br> 4. NH3
beks73 [17]

LiF or lithium fluoride is the non covalent molecule or ionic compound.

Option 3.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Covalent molecules are those molecules which do have actual bonds between the atoms present in the molecule by sharing of the electrons. But in ionic molecules, there's no actual bonds between the atoms, but the oppositely charged ions are attracted towards each other by means of electrostatic force of attraction.

The molecules that are formed by the atoms with high electronegativity and electropositivity are actually ionic because the atoms with high electronegativity are able to actually gain electron readily and the atoms with high electropositivity are actually ready to give the electrons to the electronegative elements.

Lithium is highly electropositive and fluoride is highly electronegative. So they establish an ionic bond. But other molecules like fluorine molecule has both the electronegative elements, Carbon monoxide has carbon which isn't electropositive highly, and ammonia has hydrogen which isn't electropositive.

So lithium fluoride is the ionic compound.

Each energy sublevel contains __________ number of electrons. For example, sublevel D can hold up to _______ electrons. A. the s
Annette [7]

Answer:

Each energy sublevel contains a different number of electrons. For example, sublevel D can contain up to 10 electrons

Explanation:

The atoms are surrounded by propellers that within each propeller there is a certain number of electrons, these electrons jump from orbit to orbit according to the amount of energy they have. The four levels that make up the electronic cloud that surrounds an atom are: s p d f.

When these electrons change orbit or level they release energy in the form of light, which is known as a photon.

What is the volume of a 5M solution with that has 16.5 moles?
kenny6666 [7]
Molarity can be used to calculate the volume of solvent or the amount of solute. The relationship between two solutions with the same amount of moles of solute can be represented by the formula c1V1 = c2V2, where c is concentration and V is volume.
