Correct option is c) oxygen and hydrogen.... like in <u><em>H2O .. </em></u><em> </em> there is covalent bond due to sharing of electrons ...<em />

Explanation:

Atoms that share electrons with each other tend to form a covalent bond. Whereas atoms that show transfer of electrons from one atom to another tend to form an ionic bond.

Sodium has atomic number 11 and oxygen has atomic number 8. In order to become stabilized, sodium needs to lose one electron whereas oxygen needs to gain two electrons. So, two sodium atoms will combine with one atom of oxygen. This will form an ionic bond between sodium and oxygen atom.

Carbon has atomic number 4 and fluorine has atomic number 9. Therefore, both of them will share electrons in order to become stabilized. Thus, they will form a covalent bond.

Oxygen atom has atomic number 8 and hydrogen has atomic number 1. Therefore, both of them will share electrons but due to difference in electronegativity of both hydrogen and oxygen they will result in the formation of a polar covalent bond.

Aluminium has atomic number 13 and chlorine has atomic number 17. So, aluminium will donate or transfer its valence electron to chlorine atom. Therefore, it will also form an ionic bond.

Thus, we can conclude that carbon (C) and fluorine (F) and oxygen (O) and hydrogen (H) are the combination(s) that would result in sharing of electrons.

Molecules of carbon dioxide are linear. What type of force exists between<br>these molecules?​
Vadim26 [7]

London Dispersion forces

Explanation:

London dispersion forces exists between the molecules of CO₂. These are weak attractions found between non-polar (and polar) molecules(symmetrical molecules).

  • This attraction sometimes makes non-polar molecules polar.
  • This is because of the uneven charge distribution caused by the constant motion of its electrons.
  • A temporary dipole or instantaneous dipole induces the neighboring molecules to become distorted and forms dipoles as well.
  • The forces are the weakest of all electrical forces.

In what applications might coal replace petroleum based fuel
JulsSmile [24]
Coal can replace petroleum base fuel when you are just heating something that dont need big amount of heat. examples of it is when producing steam, coal is just used to heat water and produce steam because coal is much cheaper and the coal can already do the job in heating the water

If you measured out 100.0g of water, how many molecules of water would you have drank?
12345 [234]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

3.342 x 10^24 molecules of water

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Given;

Mass of water = 100.0 g

Required to determine the number of molecules in 100.0 g of water

Using Avogadro's constant

1 mole of a compound contains 6.022 × 10^22  molecules

Thus;

1 mole of H₂O contains 6.022 × 10^23 molecules

But;

1 mole = 18.02 g/mol

Therefore;

18.02 g of water contains 6.022 × 10^23 molecules

100.0 g of water will have;

= (100. 0 g ×6.022 × 10^23 molecules) ÷ 18.02

= 3.342 x 10^24 molecules
