Explanation:

When a bond between two atoms is formed by transfer of electrons then the bond is known as ionic bond. On the other hand, when a bond is formed between two atoms by sharing of electrons then the bond is known as covalent bond.

For example, carbon atom needs 4 more electrons in order to complete its octet. Whereas hydrogen needs one more electron to become stable. Hence, carbon will share its valence electrons with hydrogen atoms and therefore carbon will combine with 4 hydrogen atoms.

$C(s) + 2H_{2}(g) \rightarrow CH_{4}$

Thus, we can conclude that two atoms are bonded through the unequal sharing of electrons then covalent bond exists between the atoms.

what is the effect of using higher concentration of sodium hydrogen carbonate on the rate of reaction?

Alex

Increasing the concentration of one or more reactants will often increase the rate of reaction. This occurs because a higher concentration of a reactant will lead to more collisions of that reactant in a specific time period.

Reaction rate increases with concentration, as described by the rate law and explained by collision theory. As reactant concentration increases, the frequency of collision increases. The rate of gaseous reactions increases with pressure, which is, in fact, equivalent to an increase in concentration of the gas.

Why is a quantitative observation more useful than a non- quantitative one? Which of the following are quantitative?

daser333 [38]

A quantitative observation is not necessarily more useful than a non-quantitative one. However, quantitative observations do allow one to ﬁnd trends.

(a), the sun rising is a non-quantitative observation.

(b), knowledge of the numerical relationship between the weight on the Moon and on Earth, is a quantitative observation.

(c), watching ice ﬂoat on water does not involve a measurement; therefore, it must be a qualitative observation.

(d) the fact that we know that the water pump won’t work for depths more than 34 feet makes it quantitative. Again, seeing numbers is a giveaway that it’s a quantitative <span>observation. Quantitative is where you deal with numbers.</span>
