Most nonmetals form covalent or ionic bonds, depending on the element with which they react. Carbon predominantly forms covalent

bonds since it has 4 valence electrons and can form single, double or triple bonds with other elements. What element will form an ionic bond with carbon

Answer: Calcium element will form an ionic bond with carbon.

Explanation:

An ionic bond is defined as the bond formed due to transfer of electrons from one atom to another.

Elements which are able to donate their valence electrons are the ones which tend to form an ionic bond. Metals are the species which form ionic bonds when they chemically combine with non-metals.

For example, CaC_{2} is calcium carbide and in this compound calcium forms an ionic bond with carbon atom by donating its valence electrons.

A covalent bond is defined as the bond formed due to sharing of electrons between the two elements.

Thus, we can conclude that calcium element will form an ionic bond with carbon.

A solution of sodium acetate (ch3coona) in water is weakly basic. <br> a. True <br> b. False
guajiro [1.7K]
Hello!

The statement that a solution of sodium acetate (CH₃COONa) is weakly basic is true:

Sodium acetate is the conjugate base of Acetic Acid. When sodium acetate is dissolved in water, it follows the equation that is shown below:

CH₃COONa(s) → CH₃COO⁻(aq) + Na⁺(aq)

Now the Acetate (CH₃COO⁻) ion, has an equilibrium in water to produce hydroxyl (OH⁻) ions and (Acetic Acid CH₃COOH)

CH₃COO⁻ + H₂O ⇄ CH₃COOH + OH⁻

This is a weak equilibrium, and the hydroxyl ions cause the solution to be weakly basic.

Have a nice day!
