i mean technically, no. only because water is water and water makes things wet. you know? unless you pour water onto water then idk honestly, truly...
Forming a covalent bond
A covalent bond is formed when two atoms share a pair of electrons. Covalent bonding occurs in most non-metal elements, and in compounds formed between non-metals.
These shared electrons are found in the outer shells of the atoms. Usually each atom contributes one electron to the shared pair of electrons.
The slideshow shows how a covalent bond forms between a hydrogen atom and a chlorine atom, making hydrogen chloride.
Structures of a hydrogen atom and a chlorine atom.
1. A hydrogen atom with one electron and a chlorine atom with 17 electrons
Molecules
Most covalently bonded substances consist of small molecules. A molecule is a group of two or more atoms joined together by covalent bonds. Molecules of the same element or compound always contain the same number of atoms of each element.
The atoms in a molecule are always joined together by a covalent bond. Substances that are made up of ions do not form molecules.
Sizes of atoms and simple molecules
A small molecule contains only a few atoms, so atoms and small molecules have a similar range of sizes. They are very small, typically around 0.1 nm or 1 × 10-10 m across.
Ps please mark me as brainiest please
Answer:
Detail is given below
Explanation:
Atomic radii trend along group:
As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.
As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.
In A we can see that there is one positive charge and force of attraction is 2.30×10⁻⁸ N and distance is 0.10 nm
In B we can see that negative charge is further away from nucleus because of greater distance thus force of attraction will be less. 0.58×10⁻⁸ N
In C this distance further increases and force also goes in decreasing 0.26×10⁻⁸ N.
Explanation:
To delineate the the nature of the bonds that would be formed between the two elements, let us first write the electronic configuration of the two species;
Be = 2, 2
F = 2, 7
Beryllium is a metal with two valence electrons whereas fluorine is a halogen with seven valence electrons.
When Be loses two electrons it becomes isoelectronic with He;
Be → Be²⁺ + 2e⁻
Also, when fluorine gains an electron, it becomes isoelectronic with Ne;
F + e⁻ → F⁻
This loss and gain of electrons between the two elements creates an electrostatic attraction them and they enter into an electrovalent bond.
Hence;
Be²⁺ + 2F⁻ → BeF₂
Answer:
The mass number
Explanation:
The mass number of an atom is its total number of protons and neutrons.
I hope this helps a bit.
