Answer: The correct answer is sharing of electrons.

Explanation:

Covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when sharing of electrons takes place between the atoms. This is usually formed between two non-metals.

For Example: Formation of hydrogen chloride molecule

Electronic configuration of hydrogen = $1s^1$

Electronic configuration of chlorine = $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5$

Hydrogen and chlorine atoms are need only 1 electron to attain stable electronic configuration. So, they share electron and form covalent bond.

Hence, the correct answer is sharing of electrons.

A sample of pure NH4HS is placed in a sealed 2.0-L container and heated to 550 K at which the equilibrium constant is 3.5 x 10-3

Zolol [24]

Answer:

The mass of $NH_{3}$ in the container is 2.074 gram

Explanation:

Given:

Volume of $NH_{4} HS$ $V = 2$ lit

Equilibrium constant $k _{eq} = 3.5 \times 10^{-3}$

The reaction in which $NH_{3}$ is produced

$NH_{4} HS$ ⇄ $NH_{3} + H_{2}S$

Here equal moles of $NH_{3}$ and $H_{2}S$ is formed.

From the formula of equilibrium constant,

$k_{eq} = (NH_{3})(H_{2}S )$

$x^{2} = 3.5 \times 10^{-3}$

$x = 0.061$ M

Above value shows,

$NH_{3} = 0.061$ $\frac{moles}{L}$

So in 2 L no. moles of $NH_{3}$ = $0.061 \times 2 = 0.122$ moles.

So mass of 0.122 mole of $NH_{3}$ is = $0.122 \times 17 = 2.074$ g

Therefore, the mass of $NH_{3}$ in the container is 2.074 gram

Which statement describes a similarity between conductors and insulators?

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

They can both be used in an electric circuit.

Explanation:

Though conductors and insulators are very different from each other but still they have a similarity that "they can both be used in an electric circuit".

Conductors are the material that allows electricity to flow and insulators have high resistance and do not allow electricity to flow.

Both conductors and insulators are used in an electric circuit as conductor is used in wires, batteries and bulb to flow current while insulators are used in insulation of wire, switches, plugs and etc. Combination of them makes the circuit shock free.

Hence, the correct answer is "They can both be used in an electric circuit."

In preparation for a demonstration, your professor brings a 1.50−L bottle of sulfur dioxide into the lecture hall before class t

solmaris [256]

Answer:

4.81 moles

Explanation:

The total pressure of the gas = Pressure at which gauge reads zero + pressure read by it.

Pressure at which gauge reads zero = 14.7 psi

Pressure read by the gauge = 988 psi

Total pressure = 14.7 + 988 psi = 1002.7 psi

Also, P (psi) = P (atm) / 14.696

Pressure = 1002.7 / 14.696 = 68.2297 atm

Temperature = 25 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15

So,

T = (25 + 273.15) K = 298.15 K

Volume = 1.50 L

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

68.2297 atm × 1.5 L = n × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 298.15 K

⇒n = 4.81 moles

P.1 is a variant of SARS-CoV2. This is the so-called "Brazil variant". It has the amino acid the substitution N501Y in the spike

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

more negative

Explanation:

There are various variants of Coviid virus. The Brazilian variant P also known as Gamma variant is the third variant of the original SARS-CoV2. This variant has raised concerns since it has ability to spread more quickly then previous variants and this is more negative variant. It is assumed that Coviid variant Gamma and Delta has ability to absorb move UV light but this is not proved yet and research is underway.
