What is the difference between ionic and covalent bonding?

Chemistry
1 answer:
mr Goodwill [35]3 years ago
8 0

In an ionic bond, one atom essentially donates an electron to stabilize the other atom. The atoms in an ionic bond have different electronegativity values from each other.

While in a covalent bond, the atoms are bound by shared electrons and the electronegativity values are the same.

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Temperature required = 923K

Explanation:

The question is incomplete as there are some details that has to be given. details like the values of the standard enthalpies and entropies of the reactants and product as this is needed to calculate the actual value of the standard enthalpies and standard entropies of the reaction. I was able to get those values from literature and then calculated what needs to be calculated.

From there, I was able to use the equation that shows the relationship between, gibb's free energy, enthalpy, entropy and temperature. The necessary mathematical manipulation were done and the values were plugged in to get the temperature required to make the reaction spontaneous.

A few notes on the Gibb's free energy.

The Gibb's free energy also referred to as the gibb's function represented with letter G. it is the amount of useful work obtained from a system at constant temperature and pressure. The standard gibb's free energy on the other hand is a state function represented as Delta-G, as it depends on the initial and final states of the system.

The spontaneity of a reaction is explained by the standard gibb's free energy.

  • If Delta-G = -ve ( the reaction is spontaneous)
  • if Delta -G = +ve ( the reaction is non-spontaneous)
  • if Delta-G = 0 ( the reaction is at equilibrium)

The step by step calculations is done as shown in the attachment.

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Matter:

toothpaste

gasoline

bacteria

cell

Not matter:

happiness

sound

Explanation:

Matter is something that has mass and volume. Happiness is just a feeling, it doesn't exist in 3d world. Sound is a wave or just the movement of matter (particles of matter). Others have masses and volumes.

A student balanced the chemical equation Mg + O2 →MgO by writing Mg + O2 → MgO2. Was the equation balanced correctly? Explain yo
Amanda [17]

Explanation:

Charges on both magnesium and oxygen is 2. Though opposite in sign, they have equal charges so, both of them will be cancelled by each other.

As a result, formula of magnesium oxide is MgO and not MgO_{2}.

The student write the equation as Mg + O_2 \rightarrow MgO_2, it is not correct.

Therefore, given equation will be balanced as follows.

          2Mg + O_{2} \rightarrow 2MgO

Since, number of atoms on both reactant and product side are equal. Hence, this equation is completely balanced.
