how do covalent bonds form between atoms?why is it that diatomic molecules always form nonpolar covalent bonds?

Chemistry

Covalent bonds are formed when two or more non metal atoms share one or more electrons to achieve stable configuration.
Diatomic molecules form non polar covalent bonds because they are linear and the charge distribution across the bond is the same; therefore, resulting in no net charge.

What mass of magnesium bromide is formed when 1.00 g of magnesium reacts with 5.00 g of bromine?
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

3.39g of MgBr

Explanation:

Reaction between magnesium and bromine

Mg + Br₂ → MgBr

Mass of MgBr = ?

1g of Mg + 5.0g of Br₂

6g of Mg and Br₂

Molar mass of Mg = 24g/mol

Molar mass of Br = 80g/mol

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Mass = number of moles * molarmass

Mass of Mg = 1 * 24 = 24g

Mass of Br₂ = 1 * (2*80) = 160g (diatomic molecule)

Molarmass of MgBr = (24 + 80) = 104g/mol

Mass of MgBr = 1 * 104 = 104g/mol

24g of Mg + 160g of Br₂ = 104g of MgBr

184g of (mg and Br) = 104g of mgBr

6g of (mg and Br) = y g of MgBr

y = (6 * 104) / 184

y = 3.39g of MgBr

When a solution of nitric acid is added to a to solution of calcium hydroxide, the salt formed has what formula?
SpyIntel [72]


Nitric acid and calcium hydroxide react to form calcium nitrate and water.

The molecular equation is as follows:

2HNO3 (aq) + Ca(OH)2 (aq)  = Ca(NO3)2 (aq) + 2H2O (l)

So the formula of calcium nitrate, the salt formed in this reaction is Ca(NO3)2 .

Water here seem to be the only real product. It is formed from the OH+  of the hydroxide and the H+ of the acid which combine to form two water molecules.

Calcium and Nitrate ions remain unchanged before and after the reaction and are thus known as spectator ions.

What causes the electrons to move and form static electricty?
Anettt [7]

Answer:

Static electricity is the result of an imbalance between negative and positive charges in an object. ... When two materials are in contact, electrons may move from one material to the other, which leaves an excess of positive charge on one material, and an equal negative charge on the other.
