Which of the following best describes the difference in bonding between two hydrogen atoms and two carbon atoms?

Chemistry

valentinak56 [21]3 years ago

Answer :

2. Hydrogen forms bonds through the overlap of 1s atomic orbitals and the sharing of electrons between atoms. Carbon forms bonds through the overlapping of sp hybrid atomic orbitals and the sharing of electrons between carbon atoms.

Explanation:

The H-H bond is formed by the overlap of two 1s orbitals and the sharing of electrons between the two atoms.

A carbon atom must use the overlap of hybridized atomic orbitals and the sharing of electrons to bond with another carbon atoms.

1. is <em>wrong</em> because H can use only its <em>1s orbital</em> for bonding.

3. is <em>wrong</em> because C must <em>share electrons</em> to form a carbon-carbon bond.

4. is <em>wrong</em> because <em>C does NOT use overlapping of 2s orbitals</em> for bonding. It uses the overlap of hybridized orbitals.

5. is <em>wrong</em> because H must <em>share electrons</em> to form an H-H bond.

uranmaximum [27]

Titanium is ductile and has high resistance for heat despite its strength.

Titanium (Ti), is a  Group 4b chemical transition  element, it has a silvery gray appearance. Its characteristics are as follows

  • known as the strongest metal with high rigidity
  • low-corrosion resistance
  • low density
  • heat resistance.

Because of these features, Titanium is widely used in building  aircraft, missiles, and ships and also in the production  of  prosthetics.

Can a molecule with nonpolar bonds ever be polar? Why<br> why not?
Tanya [424]

Answer:

A molecule that has only nonpolar bonds and no polar bonds cannot be polar.

Explanation:

However, a molecule that CONTAINS nonpolar bonds is different, because it can contain polar bonds. A molecule that contains nonpolar bonds can be polar as long as it also contains polar bonds.

Determine the number of grams of sodium carbonate needed to prepare 100.0 ml of a 2.5 m solution
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

26.5 g

Explanation:

First we convert 100.0 mL to L:

  • 100.0 mL / 1000 = 0.100 L

Now we <u>calculate how many moles of sodium carbonate are needed</u>, using the <em>definition of molarity</em>:

  • Molarity = moles / liters
  • moles = molarity * liters
  • 2.5 M * 0.100 L = 0.25 mol

Finally we <u>convert 0.25 moles of sodium carbonate into grams</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • 0.25 mol * 106 g/mol = 26.5 g

The chemical equation for the formation of ammonia is unbalanced.
galben [10]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 2 molecules

Explanation:

Unbalanced chemical reaction

                   H₂(g)   +   N₂(g)   ⇒   NH₃ (g)

         Reactants         Elements          Products

                2                      H                       3

                2                      N                       1

Balanced chemical reaction

                   3H₂(g)   +   N₂(g)   ⇒   2NH₃ (g)

         Reactants         Elements          Products

                6                      H                       6

                2                      N                       2

From the balanced chemical reaction we conclude that when 3 molecules of hydrogen react with one molecule of nitrogen, 2 molecules of ammonia will be formed.
