Why do atoms form blonds​

Chemistry
1 answer:
lakkis [162]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Atoms form chemical bonds to make their outer electron shells more stable. ... An ionic bond, where one atom essentially donates an electron to another, forms when one atom becomes stable by losing its outer electrons and the other atoms become stable (usually by filling its valence shell) by gaining the electrons.

Whats the structure and bonding of sodium chloride
anastassius [24]
Sodium Chloride is ordinary table salt

You have a small sodium atom with a positive charge Na+, and a larger chlorine atom with a negative charge, making it a Chloride ion, Cl-.

This ion formation has resulted from Na transferring one of its electrons to Cl. there opposite charges then attract them to each-other.

Because the electrons are transferred rather than shared, we know that the bond is Ionic, rather than covalent.

Most ionic compounds, if not all, are salts that form a crystal lattice structure, due to the opposite charges in the molecule.

Think of it like this

Na+—Cl-
Cl—-Na+
Na+—Cl-

That’s how the molecules attract and stick to each other. That would continue until you ran out of NaCl molecules.

select the equations that are correctly balanced. h2o 2o2? h2o2 fe2o3 3h2? 2fe 3h2o al 3br2? albr3 caco3? cao co2 can you clarif
natta225 [31]
<span>The choices are as follows:
h2o + 2o2 = h2o2
 fe2o3 + 3h2 = 2fe + 3h2o
al + 3br2 = albr3
caco3 = </span><span>cao + co2

The correct answers would be the second and the last option. The equations that are correctly balanced are:

</span> fe2o3 + 3h2 = 2fe + 3h2o 
caco3 = cao + co2

To balance, it should be that the number of atoms of each element in the reactant and the product side is equal.

The force of attraction between one polar molecule and another polar molecule is​
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Dipole-dipole forces

Explanation:

A polar compound is that compound which contains atoms that have a difference in charges i.e electrostatic attraction occurs between its constituent atoms. Polar molecules are attracted to other polar molecules with opposite charges and her held together with the aid of certain forces

The attractive force between the negative part of a polar molecule (-) and the positive part of another polar molecule (+) is called DIPOLE-DIPOLE FORCES. This dipole-dipole force gets stronger with an increasing polarity of the molecules involved.

A shiny, smooth piece of black plastic and an identical piece of white plastic are exposed to visible light and sound waves. Whi
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

The awnser is D

Explanation:

Since the black pieces absorb light better than white pieces, the white pieces will reflect light better. But since color doesn't affect sound, the sound waves are reflected the same.

Hydrogen gas is produced when zinc reacts with hydrochloric acid. If the actual yield of this reaction is 85%?
Leokris [45]
Reaction equation:
Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂

One mole of gas occupies 22.4 L at STP
Moles of H₂ = 112/22.4
= 5 moles

The theoretical amount of Zn needed is 5 mol
The actual amount = 5/0.85
= 5.88 moles

mass = moles x Mr
mass = 5.88 x 65
mass = 382.2 g

The answer is D.
