Why do atoms share electrons in covalent bonds??

Chemistry

melamori03 [73]3 years ago

Answer and Explanation:

Covalent bond is formed when electrons are shared by the atoms to fulfill their outermost shell.

In colvalent bond atoms shares electron to gain stability because if their outermost shell is not fulfilled then they are unstable.

So to gain stability electrons are shared by atoms in covalent bond , when they share electron their outermost shells are fulfilled and they become stable

Atoms in covalent bonds do combine so as to be stable. As covalent bond consist non metals e.g O2 in this example each atom has vacance of 2 orbitals/ electrons so shairing electrons result their stability

You are asked to go into the lab and prepare an acetic acid - sodium acetate buffer solution with a ph of 4.00  0.02. what mola
Oxana [17]
Hello!

To solve this problem we are going to use the Henderson-Hasselbach equation and clear for the molar ratio. Keep in mind that we need the value for Acetic Acid's pKa, which can be found in tables and is 4,76:

 pH=pKa + log ( \frac{[CH_3COONa]}{[CH_3COOH]} )

\frac{[CH_3COOH]}{[CH_3COONa}= 10^{(pH-pKa)^{-1}}=10^{(4-4,76)^{-1}}=5,75

So, the mole ratio of CH₃COOH to CH₃COONa is 5,75

Have a nice day!

What is the standard heat of reaction for the following reaction?
8090 [49]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is

The standard heat of reaction for the reaction is

a. 216.8 kJ released per mole

Explanation:

The heat of reaction is given by [Heat of formation of products] - [Heat of formation of reactants]

In the question we have, heat of formation of the products Zn+2 (aq) = -152.4 kJ/mole and the heat of formation of the reactants = 64.4 kJ/mole

Therefore, the heat of formation of the reaction = (-152-64.4) kJ/mole or

-216.8 kJ/mole released
