Why is methane, CH4, a nonpolar compound?

The molecule methane has four Carbon-Hydrogen single covalent bonds. These covalent bonds are called nonpolar covalent bonds because. The consequence of this equal sharing of electrons is that there is no charge separation (dipole moment).

What is the molecular formula of each compound?<br> (c) Empirical formula HgCl (m = 5 472.1 g/mol)
beks73 [17]

The molecular formula of HgCl (m = 5 472.1 g/mol) is Hg2Cl4.

The molecular formula is an expression that defines the number of atoms of each element in one molecule of a compound. It shows the actual number of each atom in a molecule.

<h3>Molecular formula: What is it?</h3>

A chemical formula is a way to communicate information in chemistry about the proportions of atoms that make up a specific chemical compound or molecule. Chemical element symbols, numbers, and occasionally other symbols like parentheses, dashes, brackets, commas, and plus and minus signs are used to represent the chemical elements.

A molecule's molecular formula reveals which atoms and how many of each kind are included within it. No subscript is used if there is just one atom of a certain kind. A subscript is added to the symbol for an atom if it contains two or more of a certain type of atom.

What is the economic importance of phosphorus in Canada or elsewhere in the world?
vladimir1956 [14]

white phosphorus is used in flares and explosives, so may be important in warfare, etc. Red phosphorus is used in matches (side of matches) and in fertilizers which are essential to growing plants. I don't know if that is economically important, but there are many ways that phosphorus benifit the economy. One downside on the economy is that phosphorus is one of the main ingredients in meth, which of course causes trouble for the economy ( law enforcement, medical, etc. )
