Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A covalent bond is defined as the bond which occurs due to sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

Generally, a covalent bond is formed between non-metals.

For example, both nitrogen and oxygen atoms are non-metals and they combine covalently to form NO_{2} compound.

As nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and an oxygen atom has 6 valence electrons. So, there occurs unequal sharing of electrons between the two.

Thus, we can conclude that when a covalent bond forms then electrons in valence shells are shared between atoms.

How many moles of sulfur dioxide are in 2.26x10^33 sulfur dioxide molecules?
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:moles = no. of molecules / Avogadro's number

          = 2.26 x 10^33 / 6.022 x 10^23

          = 3752906011

Round to significant figures which is 3 = 3.75 x 10^9 mol

Explanation:

The formula for finding how many moles of a substance when given the amount of molecules is: moles = number of molecules / Avogadro's number

Given 0.02 of KF, how many liters of solution are needed to make a 7.2 solution?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

1/360

Explanation:

let x = liters

molarity=moles of solute/liters of solution, 7.2=0.02/x or 7.2=(1/50)(1/x), 7.2(50)=(1/x), 360(x)=1, x=1/360

The maximum number of electrons in a single d subshell is:
Iteru [2.4K]

10 electrons

Explanation:

The maximum number of electrons in a single d-subshell is 10 electrons.

The d-sub-orbital used to denote azimuthal or secondary quantum numbers.

The maximum number of electrons in the orbitals of sublevels are:

    two electrons in the s-sublevel, it has one orbital

   

   six electrons in the p-sublevel, it has three orbital

   ten electrons in the d- sublevel, it has five orbitals

   

   fourteen electrons in the f-sublevel, it has seven orbitals

The maximum number of electrons in an orbital is two.
