Answer:

The correct answer is the first option: carbon (C)

Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

Covalent bonds are bonds in which electrons are shared. For this to happen the elements have to be nonmetals.

Oxygen is a nonmetal and among the options nonmetal is carbon.

The rest of the options are metals.

After the explanation, we conclude that the correct answer is the first option: carbon (C)

Answer: In creating a covalent bond, it would be best to bind oxygen to carbon (C ).

Covalent bonds result from electron-sharing between two atoms. One carbon atom combines with two oxygen atoms. Thus, the carbon dioxide molecule has two C=O bonds. Carbon dioxide is a very common covalent bond.

Which observation about methane (ch4) can be explained using the orbital hybridization theory?
MissTica
<span>All 4 C-H bonds are identical.

Hybridisation or hybridization is the idea of blending atomic orbitals into new hybrid orbitals, with various energies, shapes, and so on, than the component atomic orbitals, appropriate for the matching of electrons to make chemical bonds in valence bond theory.

The boiling point of water is 100.0°C at 1 atmosphere. How many grams of sodium acetate (82.04 g/mol), must be dissolved in 283.
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

I have to weight 10,04 g of acetate sodium

Explanation:

This is the colligative propertie about elevation of boiling point

ΔT = Kb . m . i  

ΔT is the difference between T° at boiling point of the solution - T° at boiling point of the solvent pure  - we have this data 0,450°C

Kb means ebulloscopic constant (0,52 °C.kg/m .- a known value for water)

m means molality (moles of solute in 1kg of solvent)

i means theVan 't Hoff factor (degree of dissociation for a compound)

For the sodium acetate is 2

NaCH3COO ---> Na+  + CH3COO-

0,450°C = 0,52°C.kg/m . m . 2

0,450°C / (0,52°C.kg/m . 2) = m

0,432 m/kg = m

This number means I have 0,432 moles of acetate sodium, my solute in 1kg of water, my solvent. But I don't have 1000 g (1kg) I only have 283 g so let's make the rule of three:

1000 g _____ 0,432 moles

283 g ______ (283g .0,432m) / 1000g = 0,122 moles

Now that I have the moles of acetate sodium, I have to find the mass.

Moles . molar mass = mass

0,122 moles . 82.04 g/mol = 10,04 g
