What is the total number of electrons shared in a double covalent bond between two atoms?

Chemistry
2 answers:
emmainna [20.7K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: 4 electrons

Explanation: for a double covalent bond formation, the atoms involved will share 2 electrons each making it a total of 4 electrons

Rewrite the equation below using the correct conventions for stoichiometric coefficients. 2 BaCl2 + 2 H2SO4 → 2 BaSO4 + 4 HCl
vichka [17]

Answer:

BaCl2+H2SO4 \rightarrow BaSO4+2HCl

Explanation:

The given equation is:

2 BaCl2+2H2SO4 \rightarrow2BaSO4+4HCl

Based on the reaction stoichiometry:

2 moles of barium chloride (BaCl2) reacts with 2 moles of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) to form 2 moles of barium sulfate (BaSO4) and 4 moles of HCl

Although the reaction is balanced, the correct convention is to depict reactions in terms of the lowest molar ratio. Therefore the coefficients (2,2,4 and 4) can be divided by 2 to give:

BaCl2+H2SO4 \rightarrow BaSO4+2HCl

Which statement best explains why calcium has a larger atomic radius than magnesium? A. Calcium has a stronger nuclear charge th
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

B. calcium has electrons in more energy levels than magnesium

Explanation:

atoms are made of three types of subatomic particles - electrons, protons and neutrons.

Neutrons and protons reside in the nucleus of the atom and electrons reside in energy shells

electronic configuration for both Ca and Mg are as follows

Mg - 2,8,2

Ca - 2,8,8,2

outermost energy shell of Mg with electrons is the third energy level

whereas outermost energy shell of Ca with electrons is the fourth energy shell

therefore Ca has a larger atomic radius than Mg as it has one more energy shell than Mg in which electrons reside

Explain why each mineral has its own properties, different from every other mineral
kaheart [24]
Each mineral has its own properties different from other minerals because minerals are made up of different elements. Different elements which can be found on the periodic table all have unique properties, therefore, gold will have distinct properties in comparison with zinc or aluminium for example because they are made up of different elements :))))

The polymerization of amino acids produces:
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Proteins

Explanation:

Polymerization, in chemistry, is the chemical combination of monomeric units to form a polymer. Polymers are large molecules made up of smaller units called monomers. Amino acids are the monomeric units of proteins i.e. A protein is made up of of many amino acids joined together.

Therefore, the chemical combination of amino acids will form a peptide bond between the carbon atom of the acid group and nitrogen atom of the amine group in the structure of the amino acids. This is done by the loss of a water molecule. The continuous repetition of this polymerization process will form a chain called polypeptide, which is the PROTEIN.
