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.

Sodium carbonate (NaCO3) is sometimes used as a water-softening agent. Suppose that a worker prepares a 0.730 M solution of NaCO
sergey [27]

The molarity of a solution is the number of moles of a substance divided by the volume in liters prepared.

molarity=\frac{n}{V}, where n is number of moles and V is the volume in liters.

In order to calculate the mass of solute we need to convert the volume and molarity to moles

1.421 L solution \times\frac{0.0730 moles}{1 Lsolution}= 1.037 mol NaCO_3

Now that we have moles we use the relative formula mass of NaCO₃, We have 1 Na atom, 1 C atom and 3 O atoms, thus

M_r= (1\times 22.99) + (1\times 12.00) + (3\times 16.00)= 82.99g/mol

1.037 \times\frac{82.99g}{mol} = 86.1g
