Answer:
Covalent bonds usually occur between nonmetals. For example, in water (H2O) each hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) share a pair of electrons to make a molecule of two hydrogen atoms single bonded to a single oxygen atom. ... Covalent compounds tend to be soft, and have relatively low melting and boiling points.

Here's what I get
Explanation:
You may have done a Williamson synthesis of guaifenesin by reacting guaiacol with 3-chloropropane-1,2-diol.
A. Mechanism
Step 1
NaOH converts guaiacol into a phenoxide ion.
Step 2
The phenoxide acts as the nucleophile in an SN2 reaction to displace the Cl from the alkyl halide.
B. Improve the yield
You probably carried out the reaction in ethanol solution — a polar protic solvent.
You might try doing the reaction in a polar aprotic solvent— perhaps DMSO.
A polar aprotic solvent does not hydrogen bond to nucleophiles, so they become stronger.
C. Another method of ether synthesis —dehydration of alcohols
Sulfuric acid catalyzes the conversion of primary alcohols to ethers.
This is also a nucleophilic displacement reaction.
Protonation of the OH converts it into a better leaving group.
Attack by a second molecule of alcohol forms the protonated ether.
A molecule of water then removes the proton.
Answer:
10.9%.
Explanation:
The first thing to do in order to solve this question is to Determine the value for the volume of the the cube. This can be done by taking the cube root of the length of the cube;
The volume of the cube = (length of the cube)^3 = length × length × length = 1.72 × 1.72 × 1.72 =( 1.72)^3 = 5.09cm^3.
The next thing you do is to Determine the exponential density, the can be done by using the formula below;
The exponential density = mass/ volume = 55. 786/ 5.09 = 10.96 g/cm^3.
Therefore, the percent error = (true density of the cube - exponential density of the cube)÷ true density of the cube × 100.
Hence, the percent error = 12.30 - 10.96/12.30 × 100 = 10.9%.
