Answer: B) hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

A) An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element.

B) Hydrogen bonds are special type of dipole dipole forces which are formed when hydrogen bonds with an electronegative element.

DNA strands are held together by hydrogen bonds between the bases on one strand and those on the other. Adenine and thymine have two hydrogen bonds between them while cytosine and guanine have three hydrogen bonds between them.

C) Non-polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is no difference of electronegativities between the atoms.

D) A polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is a difference of electronegativities between the atoms.

Determine the number of moles of aluminum in 2.154 x 10-1 kg of Al. Group of answer choices 5816 mol 7.984 mol 6.02 X 1023 mol 4
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Avogadro's number is 1 mol  = 6.02 * 10^23 elements

It means that 1 mol of atoms is 6.02 * 10^23 atoms

1 mol of atoms = 6.02 * 10^23 atoms

From there, if you divide both sides by 1 mol of atoms, you get

1 = 6.02 * 10^23 atoms / 1 mol of atoms.

That means, that to pass from a number of moles of atoms to number of atoms you have to multipby by the conversion factor

         6.02*10^23  atoms Al/ 1 mol Al

That is the second option of the list.

As the atomic number ___________(Increases/Decreases) within a period, the atomic radius _______(Increases/Decreases).
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Atomic radius is the distance from the atom's nucleus to the outer edge of the electron cloud. In general, atomic radius decreases across a period and increases down a group.
