Which phrase best describes a covalent bond?

Chemistry
1 answer:
kotegsom [21]3 years ago
5 0

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is sharing of electrons.

<u>Explanation:</u>

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.

<u>For Example:</u> 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.

Besides glycerol what 3 other molecules make up a triglyceride?
ICE Princess25 [194]
Triglyceride is a molecule constituted by one one molecule of glycerol and 3 molecules of fatty acids. The structure of a glycerol is like a letter "E", where the vertical line ( | ) is the glycerol and the three horizontal lines are long chains of organic acids, each with one COOH group, called fatty acids.<span> The answer is that the other 3 molecules that make up a triglyceride are fatty acids.</span>

Consider the model of the nitrogen atom which electron configuration matches the model
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

           1s², 2s², 2p³  

Explanation:

The atomic number of Nitrogen is seven. So it contains seven protons and seven electrons in neutral form. Also, the electronic configuration cited above contains seven electrons among which two electrons are present in first shell and five electrons are present in valence shell respectively.

What is the chemical formula and net ionic equations for all three solutions.
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

See answer below

Explanation:

As you are asking for chemical formula and ionic equation, then, I will assume that after the station #4 below, are the solutions you are requiring.

You are also not specifing if you want for example, result of solution 1 + solution 3. If you need that, please post that on another question.

Now for the chemical formula, you need to identify the elements in all 3 solutions, and also the type of compound.

<u>1. Solution 2 Potassium Chloride: </u>

In this case we have Potassium on one side, and Chlorine on the other side, the symbol for those are K and Cl. As Potassium have the +1 oxidation state, cause is the only one that it can have, when it's next to an halide like chlorine or bromine, it will form a binary salt. The halides, usually work with the lowest oxydation state. In the case of Chlorine it will be -1, so, the formula will be:

KCl

And the net ionic equation will be the chemical equation that shows how the charges and atoms are balanced. In this case it would be:

K⁺ + Cl⁻ ------> KCl

<u>2. Solution 1 Copper(II) sulfate: </u>

In this case we have a tertiary salt, The copper's symbol is Cu, and is working with it oxydation state +2. Sulfate is an anion and it's formula is SO₄ and works with oxydation state -2 instead.

The chemical formula and ionic equation will be:  

Copper(II) sulfate: CuSO₄

And the net equation:

Copper sulfate: Cu²⁺ + SO₄²⁻ -------> CuSO₄

<u>3. Solution 3 Sodium hydroxide:</u>

In this case, we have a compound that it's usually used in acid base reactions. This is a strong base or hydroxide, and we have the element of Sodium (Na) with the oxydation state +1, is the only one it can have, and for the other side we have the oxydrile anion OH, and together is working with the oxydation state -1. So the chemical formula will be:

NaOH

And the net ionic equation:

Na⁺ + OH⁻ -------> NaOH

Hope this helps
