Answer:

Non metals join to form covalent bond.

Explanation:

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.

Both atoms bonded through covalent bond.

In Cl₂ both chlorine atoms are bonded through the covalent bond.

For the reaction

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

0.558mole of SO₃

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Molar mass of SO₃ = 80.0632g/mol

Mass of S = 17.9g

Molar mass of S = 32.065g/mol

Number of moles of O₂ = 0.157mole

Molar mass of O₂ = 31.9988g/mol

Unknown:

Maximum amount of SO₃

Solution

We need to write the proper reaction equation.

2S + 3O₂ → 2SO₃

We should bear in mind that the extent of this reaction relies on the reactant that is in short supply i.e limiting reagent. Here the limiting reagent is the Sulfur, S. The oxygen gas would be in excess since it is readily availbale.

So we simply compare the molar relationship between sulfur and product formed to solve the problem:

First, find the number of moles of Sulfur, S:

Number of moles of S = $\frac{mass }{molar mass}$
