Which statement best describes the properties of covalent compounds

Chemistry
1 answer:
amm18123 years ago
8 0

Most covalent compounds have relatively low melting points and boiling points. Covalent compounds usually have lower enthalpies of fusion and vaporization than ionic compounds. Covalent compounds tend to be more flammable than ionic compounds. When dissolved in water, they don't conduct electricity.

How many unpaired electrons are in the c 2 + ​ ion?
sladkih [1.3K]
Atomic number of C is 6. Hence, there are 6 electrons in carbon.

The electronic configuration of carbon is 1s2, 2s2, 2p2

Here, there are 2 unpaired electron. However, C2+ ions have 2 electrons less as compared to C.

Hence, electronic configuration of C 2+ ion is 1s2, 2s2. All the electrons are paired in this system. So there are no unpaired electrons in C 2+ ion.

What happens to an electron when it emits a photon
Flura [38]

Answer:

when electron emit the radiations it means it jumped to the lower energy level from higher energy level.

Explanation:

When electron jump into lower energy level from high energy level it loses the energy.

The process is called de-excitation.

Excitation:

When the energy is provided to the atom the electrons by absorbing the energy jump to the higher energy levels. This process is called excitation. The amount of energy absorbed by the electron is exactly equal to the energy difference of orbits.

De-excitation:

When the excited electron fall back to the lower energy levels the energy is released in the form of radiations. this energy is exactly equal to the energy difference between the orbits. The characteristics bright colors are due to the these emitted radiations. These emitted radiations can be seen if they are fall in the visible region of spectrum.
