Subscripts are the identity of the element (the number of atoms) whereas coefficients are the number of molecules of the element.

If you change the subscript, you change the number of atoms an element has. This changes the entire element since each element in the periodic table have different atomic numbers.

One oxygen atom shares two electron with two hydrogen atoms in this way water molecules are formed. The bond between oxygen and hydrogen is covalent bond.

<h3>What is covalent bond ?</h3>

An electron exchange that results in the formation of electron pairs between atoms is known as a covalent bond. Bonding pairs or sharing pairs are the names given to these electron pairs.

Covalent bonding is the stable equilibrium of the attractive and repulsive forces between atoms when they share electrons.

According to the amount of shared electron pairs, there are three different forms of covalent bonds. single covalent bond is one type of covalent bond. covalent double bond and covalent triple bond.

Thus, option B is correct .

If the NaOH is added to 35.0 mL of 0.167 M Cu(NO3)2 and the precipitate isolated by filtration, what is the theoretical yield of
Ghella [55]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 0.570 grams

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is given by

Cu(NO3)2(aq)     + 2NaOH(aq)    -------->    Cu(OH)2(s)      + 2NaNO3(aq)

        1.0 mole            2.0 mole                 1.0 mole          2.0 mole

number of mol of Cu(OH)2,

n = Molarity * Volume

= 35.0*0.167 = 5.845 millimoles

As clear in the equation, 1 mole of Cu(NO3)2 gives 1 mole of Cu(OH)2 , So, 5.845 millimoles of Cu(NO3)2 will produce 5.845 millimoles of Cu(OH)2

Mass of Cu(OH)2 = number of mol * molar mass

= 97.5*5.845*10^-3

= 0.570 grams

Thus, the correct answer is - 0.570 grams
